opi live and let die (skyfall)

skyfall might still be my favourite opi collection, and one of awesome polishes released in it is live and let die. i already wrote about on her majesty secret service, moonraker, you only live twice and tomorrow never dies.


live and let die is a blackened green shade filled with green and gold tiny glass flecks. this shimmer is not too dense, just the right amount.

the formula is awesome as well, it's almost a one-coater. i can't get enough of these shades and i really hope everyone got their bottle of this polish, because it is one of the prettiest shades of this kind.

chanel mysterious (superstition)

superstition was chanel's autumn collection back in 2013, and i have no idea why i waited to show misterious until now. you can see my other pick, alchimie, here.


misterious was described as a "deep khaki", but i would call that deep very, very deep. it is more like a quite blackened olive green with some grey and brown undertones. a nicely flowing creme, very elegant and pretty.

dior perfecto (rock your nails)

after the cult classic, nirvana, it is time for me to show another polish from dior's rock your nails collection from back in 2011, perfecto.

perfecto is a super dark grey, just a pinch away grom being quite off-black. it is a solid, pretty creme, but not really a stunner. 

the formula is a classic, two coater creme. it is a nice winter polish, but really, not a must-have in any wayl.

dance legend melange 276

dance legend melange 276 appeared when i was out of pure black creme polish for a while. i decided to choose something from dance legend, since i was always happy with their brush and formula.

i ended getting number 276 from their melange collection, not completely black but one of those off blacks that takes an expert eyes to see that it's actually not. as usual, formula is flawless and it's a perfect choice for layering.
