I thought I'd show you a couple of the new polishes I picked up. I have wanted OPI Dim Sum Plum from the Hong Kong Collection for the longest time...and lo and behold! There it was...on the clearance rack!! And I don't know about you, but I love this year's Euro Centrale Collection by OPI. I have a few polishes from it, but I decided to pick up Polka.com, the glittery goody from the collection. I didn't realize until I got home and was looking at the glitter that these two polishes would look great together. And so a bouncing baby combo was born.
OPI Dim Sum Plum |
Dim Sum Plum is a medium plum/fuchsia pink creme with a great application. I sometimes have trouble with cremes because I'm so clumsy. I can work very easily with this one! :D
OPI Polka.com |
Polka.com is a combination of blue, teal, and fuchsia hex and micro glitter in a clear base. The fuchsia is almost exactly the same color as Dim Sum Plum. To look at the bottle shot, it seems that the blue would be the standout color, but actually the teal is. I used 2 coats of Polka.com because I was feeling extra sparkly.
Put up your fishing pole...no fishing for glitter here! :) |
The large glitter in Polka.com is very reflective...it's flashy, especially the teal. It makes your fingers absolutely twinkle. It's distracting, but in a good way. Just don't look at it while you're driving!! :P
OW!! My eyes!!! |
Do you own Polka.com? If so, with what colors do you wear it? I really love this combo because Dim Sum Plum is such a beautiful polish on its own. And two beautiful polishes together = MASS HYSTERIA!!
Oh, in case you were wondering, Mel's cheese ball won first place at her work's chocolate chip recipe contest. So maybe we DO know how to party? :P
Thanks for stopping by, and have a lovely evening!! :)
Its pink!!! Looks great with the glitter! So sparkly! :D x
ReplyDeleteI am confused by all this pink love lately!?? It is a beautiful color though. :)
DeleteVery pretty! There's an Ulta opening up in my city soon and I am super excited for that. Lol.
ReplyDeleteJust bought Dim Sum Plum from a blog sale and the color looks amazing! I can't wait to wear it myself. I really need to get my hands on this glitter! Its been on my wishlist :)
ReplyDeleteIt is such a pretty color...Sally Hansen Cherry Cherry Bang Bang is very close to it but not exact. You'll love it and Polka.com! :)
DeleteI have Polka.com and love it - it looks so good with any kind of pink, purple, or blue! This is a cute combo!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I will probably try it with a blue next. :)
DeleteSo much pink! What has gotten into us non pink girls! Lol
ReplyDeleteI don't know!! As soon as I start saying I don't care for it, I go and buy tons of it! :P
DeleteThis is beautiful! Great pairing... I've only used Polka.com over dark blue, and it's beautiful that way too! I definitely like it over that OPI base color though. And that ring. omg I love it!
ReplyDeleteI do want to try it over blue! And yes...the ring!! :P They've become my favorite props. :D
DeleteBeautiful combo!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kas! :)
DeleteOh, this is one of my favorite OPI colors! :) It's so bright and happy. And lovely combo with Polka.com!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love it too! :)
DeleteI just love Polka.Dot! It looks so great over all sorts of colors, including the pink you have it over. :-)

Thanks Yun! I love it too...it's very versatile. :)
DeleteI have Polka.com and wore it over a light blue I think??? This is such a pretty mani. I always had my eye on Dim Sum Plum and never picked it up...now I wish I would have.
ReplyDeleteThanks! :) It is a lovely color...sort of exactly between pink and purple. I got this on the clearance rack, so maybe your Ulta still has it?!
Deleteohmigosh! this colour is amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful! :)
