picture polish camo (light shades)

camo is one of rare picture polish cremes that i own, and it was initially launched as a part of light shades collection in 2009, like tiffany and sky.

the initial decription was "a khaki best worn as camouflage", to which they added "dark and earthy, camo nail polish has a creme formula that goes on smoothly for opaque coverage." 

khaki is one of my favourite shades, so there was no skipping this one. it is earthy and muted in just the perfect amount. the coverage was also great, it is really one of my go-tos.

opi pamplona purple (espana)

these swatches are in my unpublished folder for a while, so it was about time to show them. it is the beautiful pamplona purple for opi's espana collection back in autumn 2009.

there i not really much to say about this polish. it is a beautiful, red toned purple, one of these shades is a must have in everyone's collection.

formula is rich and flawless, so i definitely recommend this one.

ysl opulente cannelle (spicy)

spicy was a very interesting collection from ysl back in spring 2014. opulente cannelle is one of the six polishes from this collection, and i've already shown safran sultanpiment d'ailleurs , feuille d'or and eau de rose.
opulente cannelle is very difficult shade to describe. i learned that cannelle actually means cinnamon in french, and it makes sense, it doeas have this cinnamony look.

the shade is somewhere between medium brown and those dusty rose colours. i find it strangley pretty, but i agree that it depends a lot on the skin tone. formula is impeccable.
