And here is another shade from OPI's 2012 Skyfall Collection-- The World is Not Enough. Not my favorite Bond movie, especially as it features Denise Richards as a nuclear scientists with the lamentable name of Christmas Jones. Ugh-- let's move on to the polish! I would call The World is Not Enough a metallic taupe, though the finish on this polish is foil and has a pink and blue shimmer.
The World is Not Enough went on a little sheer in the first coat, but built up nicely. I used three coats to make this opaque, but you could get away with two if you used thicker coats. I didn't have any issues applying this at all and it dried quickly. I didn't use a top coat on this and you can see that with the flash this polish is incredibly reflective.

Clearly, given the reflective nature of this polish, I had a bit of a hard time capturing it on camera. Hopefully you can get a sense of the color from my photos. I feel like this is a slightly unusual polish for a holiday collection, but the color is cool and wearable. A fun twist on a neutral, that's for sure!
What a pretty shade! Love how it sparkles and shines :)
ReplyDeleteI was surprised at how shiny this is! It's such a cool, unusual shade (well, probably not as unusual now, with all the indie makers doing such creative stuff).
DeleteLove these swatches, Cat. I forgot how much I enjoyed this collection. And I love James Bond, I grew up watching the movies, so it's sentimental :-)
ReplyDeleteI am realizing that I haven't seen all that many Bond movies (at least all the way through). Need to have a Bond-a-thon!
DeleteI loved this color so much!
ReplyDeleteIt's very pretty!
