Festive fingertips: OPI - Don't Toy With Me!

Because we're heading towards the holiday season I'm dragging out my beloved old limited edition holiday polishes!

The first holiday polish I'm posting is one of my absolute favourite reds of all time(!) and is from OPI's 2008 Holiday in Toyland collection.  Don't Toy With Me is an amazing glass-flecked deep ruby red.  It's like wearing crushed rubies on my fingertips as the sparkle is crazy in bright light.  The depth and complexity of this polish is fabulous.  Gorgeous for a party manicure!

It's so stunning and I don't think my pictures don't do it justice...

Full sun


Lamplight

Outdoors shade


That's all for now.

  5. Ciao Bella,
    What a gorgeous shade of red. I love it.
    Is this shade similar to China Glazes "Ruby Pumps"? I don't have either... but I would love to have Ruby Pumps because it just seems to be so pretty. I am on the hunt for a really pretty red for Christmas this year.
    Have a great day!!
    Hugs & Kisses,
    Love,
    Shelley

  8. @Polish AMOR - Thanks! xoxo

    @Shelley - Ruby Pumps is a red glitter polish which would be a great festive mani. I actually have it in my stash so I'll have to do a comparison post.

    @Liz - Thanks! It's still on my nails cos I don't want to take it off.

    @Vintage Makeup - Yay! You understand why it's one of my faves then. :) xoxo

  11. i totally did! we went shopping to the sephora that had Illamasqua and i spoiled myself to 2 nail polishes from them .. its the only way i can justify wasting 30 dollars on two nail polishes. hahaha
