OPI: Vodka & Caviar

Because I'm not doing quite as many nail polish posts these days I'm trying to mix it up so you don't just get the same shades over and over - like purple and more purple if I had my way...
 
Not true! I do get different colour cravings and I decided last week was a red week so I went hunting for one of the few classic red creams I have in my collection.  Vodka & Caviar is one of those classic OPI reds from their Russian Collection released years ago and it's a slightly translucent jelly so the finish is something a little special.  The formula was the perfect consistency to maintain control without any flooding or streaking so two coats applied super smoothly and the precision cut brush always helps too. Unfortunately I've found out this particular red has been discontinued - I know I'll be hanging onto it now!

This actually reminds me of toffee apples :)
 
Until next time!

    1. I think you can still hunt it down on eBay - definitely worth it too because it's gone straight to the top of my red list!

  3. Love this red! The jelly gives it a brightness that I find perky for a red.

    1. I don't have many jelly polishes so this is a bit of a revelation really!

  4. Oooh, that is classic! And like Liz, I love that it's a jelly finish! That gives it a little more oomph and a modern feel, as well.
