OPI Infinite Shine "Linger Over Coffee" and Infinite Shine Fiji Collection "Do You Sea What I Sea" swatches and review

*pr sample*




Hello to another nail post :) This time I will show you swatches of my two, new OPI polishes.
New meaning I got them , ummmm like 2 months ago more  or less. 
OPI polishes are amazing. They are the ones that last the longest on my nails. The new Infinite Shine formula with the primer and top coat stays put up to 2 weeks. win win for me! I said it many times already I love nail polishes. over all love painting my nails and changing colors every other day. Coz why not!? 

My two new colors that joined OPI family are simply gorgeous!



First super pretty summer blue is from FIJI collection, in the shade "Do You Sea What I Sea?".
Fiji collection is inspired by Fiji Island, it embrace color and  captures the essence of the lush, unspoiled terrain ~ evoking an emotional response and offering a spiritual connection to the environment.  there is 12 shades in a collection and all are available in Gel Color, Infinite Shine and Nail Lacquer formulas. 



I have my in Infinite Shine. Do you sea what I sea is the most beautiful blue ever! I don't own anything like this color. Is perfect for spring and summer but also I can see my self wearing it in winter. The formula is sheer, you need at least 2-3 coats for the color to be opaque. It goes on even without streaks.  It is really shimmery! It have a purple-blue shift. I adore this color! I had it on for about 10 days when it started to chip. Not bad! I used both base and top coat. Right now my toes rock this color and I love it! cant wait to pull out my flip floops and show it off!



second OPI polish is  "linger over coffee", also Infinite shine formula.ah again this color is breathtaking. I say perfect for like end of summer and beginning of Fall. Pretty , warm brown with pale pink undertones. It might not be everyone cup o tea.. or coffee. I personally love darker nails. I don't own much browns so I am happy that this one joined my collection. 
This one wore around 6-7 days before start to chip. I didn't use base or top coat with it. 



Do you guys like OPI polishes?
 Do you have a favorite?


*disclaimer ": both shades were send to me from #octolyfamily for #honestreview #gifted. Opinion is my own.

Milani Cosmetics Lipsticks ~ Blushing Beauty, Tuscan Toast and Bahama Beige ~ New in



Recently CVS had a HUGE sale on Milani Lipsticks and Glosses. Only $2.99!!!! I know STEAL! I have never see them that low! As some of you might now I'm huge Milani Junkie. They by far my favorite drugstore brand. I wanted to buy at least 10 shades! The new matte ones and new shades to their color statement line. But... I only picked 3 ... Why? Because all other ones were swatched and opened! God I hate when people do that! Like there as 5 Matte Diva lipsticks and all 5 were swatched! Yes all 5!!!!ughhhhh... I get all pissed off when I see that! Its really rare to find unopened un-swatch lipstick. Anyways I found only 3 that were good condition, well almost. Blushing Beauty was a tiny swatch but after I got home I dipped her in Alcohol and voila :) Almost like a brand new. The colors are so perfect for fall especially Bahama Beige and Tuscan Toast. Blushing Beauty is a shade perfect shade for the time between Fall and Summer. Like now! 





BLUSHING BEAUTY (51) ~ I am slightly obsessed with this color. It is a very glossy. Long lasting.  After hours of wear it leaves a stain behind. I think reapply is twice during a day. The color is a darker pink ( something between dark rose color and watermelon) if that make sense hahah I don't know I my head it does. I tell ya : Just go and pick this one up. You will like it I promise. I been wearing it for past three days and I LOVE IT! 

BAHAMA BEIGE (55) ~ I didn't wear this one yet Its a pretty nude brown beige color ( duh the name ..). I swatched on my lips and its a bit sheer, but you can build the color up a bit. Swatching it is glossy like a Blushing Beauty. I think all the new lipsticks are more glossier then the ones before (older Color Statement). This will make a perfect nude Fall Lipstick. And Yes I will be wearing it this Fall. 

TUSCAN TOAST (48) ~ Gorgeous shade! Deep burgundy with brown undertones. Reminds me of a brick.Again glossy finish. Swatches really nice on the lips. Again perfect lipstick for Fall. 

They all feel super soft when applying on the lips. They do feel moisturizing. I don't know for sure, but I think the darker shades will leave a stain behind. I notice that with Blushing Beauty. But I don't know that for sure. I will see how it will this go with Tuscan Toast and Bahama Beige. I will update you on that. And I need to  mention that they smell more of vanilla then watermelon.
