My latest online purchase arrived in the mail today !
Perfect excuse to ditch the books and procrastinate. (':
I bought OPI's Ridge Filler, Nail Envy, Drip Dry and two colours; Thanks a Windmillion and Mermaid Tears.
Kinda a stupid choice given they are almost the exact same colour, a darkish minty greeny colour, ahhahah... except that TAW is a bit more grey.

LOVE LOVE LOVE, Ridge Filler, Nail Envy and Drip Dry !!
I was never really a nails person because I would always, always, either have crazy ridges and imperfections on my nails, have peeling, or touch them while they were drying - always.
So once these arrived, I tried it out straightaway. and, I am so pleased with the results !!
Ridge filler made my nails so smooth, no ridges or bumps,
Nail Envy, although I have yet to see the long term effects, is a really good base and top,
And Drip Dry, omg, is my saviour. It helped dry my nails so quick that I didn't have time to forget that I had wet nails and touch something.
Mermaid's Tears came out last year I think as a part of the POTC Collection, and Thanks a Windmillion this year as a part of the Holland Collection. Both are a minty-ish, green / blue colour, with Thanks a Windmillion being a little more grey.
When I used it, I was a little disappointed since I thought that they would be a little more of a pastel mint. So,... I mixed white in. (On a little palette, not the whole bottle !) (: I like the colour a whole lot more, but the consistency not so much, its much more thicker, and less smooth and slightly streaky mixed and does not go on as nicely. So, I won't show a picture, cause it would kinda contradict what I said earlier about my nails being super nice, cause after I mixed in white, they aren't as nice... ):

Andddd yea, I guess if you have unhealthy nails like me, grab yourself Nail Envy and Ridge Filler ! Or if you have a tendency to forget that your nails are wet, - Drip Dry is the answer !
And OPI still remains the leaders of awesome nail polishes (and nail polish names.)
now here is the million dollar question... do you put on ridge filler or nail envy first??
ReplyDeleteHahahah ! Exactly what I thought ! I think my brain exploded when I first thought about it. But I put Nail Envy on first, just so my nails get nice and healthy and then I put ridge filler if I need it because I don't need my base coat to be smooth, just the coloured coat. So as long as ridge filler is under the colour coat then it's all good !
ReplyDeleteDon't even know if that makes sense ! :S
