Hello lovelies,

I've had few questions around how close some polishes are to each other. So I've decided to do few comparison pictures to help you decide what polish you really need :)

Let's start with creme reds by OPI. I have compared three shades against Danke-Shiny Red from OPI Germany collection. I found Wocka Wocka to be the closest of all.

Next polish I wanted to compare was You Only Live Twice from the Skyfall collection. Meep-Meep-Meep seems to be the closest but in reality it has chunky glass flecks that You Only Live Twice does not have. Let Me Entertain You is closest with the finish but it has strong cool-toned fuchsia shade.

This time I've been searching my OPI stash for dupes of Casino Royale. I thought that No Spain No Gain will  be the same but it's lighter,

And finally, On Her Majesty's Secret Service is an exact dupe for Zoya's FeiFei. I find it a bit suspicious not just because they are exactly the same in colour but also in the distinctive and horrible smell.

Hello lovelies,

Today I have a manicure inspired by a ring. I've recently got my paws on a charcoal coloured lightning bolt ring and I've decided to match my manicure to it. It's very simple design, nothing fancy.

I have used OPI Die Another Day as a base colour and A England Dorian Gray for the lightning bolt. I've also used a tape to achieve the lightning bolt shape.
