Elegant Glitz: OPI Glitzerland

I know I already swatched my OPI Swiss collection picks for you, I just had to show you a picture from when I wore OPI Glitzerland as a full manicure. This polish really exceeded my expectations! If you can, click on the pic to enlarge - you will see the multi-coloured shimmer in this bad boy:


I have a soft spot for metallic polishes, but really hate streaky, brushstroke-filled finishes, so these ultra shimmery semi-foils are right up my alley. Plus, this gold is neutral and quiet enough to go with anything. It definitely doesn't scream "GOOOLLLDDDD" like OPI Dazzled by Gold, but it gilds your fingertips elegantly and sparkles beautifully in low light. Sexy!

Just had to share another shot of this one! :)

  1. This looks so beautiful on you! I haven't bought this one yet (afraid of it looking too loud), but this picture is starting to change my mind!

  4. Ooooh, it looks lovely on you! I love the look of a metallic-y gold on nails the length of yours, it's very chic looking. Fabulous!

  6. @Varnish Vixen - Thank you! I am a conservative polish wearer (I think) and this isn't loud to me. This is about as subtle as gold gets!

    @Emelie - OMG I can't believe you just commented on my blog post!! I read your blog all the time! I'm having a big fangirl moment :)

    @Piff - Agreed - DbG and this are totally different animals. If I ever stumble upon a pot of DbG you get one!!

    @extraH - Thank you! I love metallics :)

    @Lucy - I think this is a great staple - really very subtle and neutral but still has some special sparkle and magic without being overdone!

  7. I love this type of polish. I've been going crazy for these for months now. I don't have this one. I'll have to add it to my list.
