Today I picked up three nail polishes from the new Texas collection by OPI and here are the swatches along with a discription, enjoy!
Guy Meets Gal-Veston, San Tan-Tonio, Don't Mess With OPI
Guy Meets Gal-Veston is a sheer coral. In the pictures it looks more orange, but I assure you it's not. There's another color in the collection, Big Hair..Big Nails that is the orange version of this sheer color. But to achieve this color too three coats and as you can see, you can still see my white tip showing through at the top. It goes on very nicely and would look especially great with a tan in the summer and on the toes!
San Tan-Tonio is a unique nude color and I own nothing like it. It's darker than my skin color for sure and I wouldn't call it "brown", but maybe a teddy bear brown if that makes sense? I have two coats on in the picture and I liked how it went on. At first I didn't LOVE it, and I still don't know if it do because of how pale I am, but maybe with something else over it it will grow on me!
The only reason I bought this was because I wanted to buy Jade is The New Black but when I got to the store they only had one left and it looked like it had been sitting there forever and was turning yellow so I didn't want to chance it and then I saw Don't Mess With OPI. When I held them next to each-other they looked identical but I would have to imagine there is some difference when they are on the nail. Anyway, I ended up buying this and like it. I have two coats on in the picture and it's pretty much a jade/emerald green color. It did dry a little streaky but I applied it fast to put up these pictures so maybe if I take my time inbetween coats next time it will come out better.
