As of today’s review on OPI Honey Ryder, I’ve now finished swatching and reviewing all 6 shades in the OPI Bond Girls Collection due out in May!

Honey Ryder is a light gold, which could work as an interesting neutral for some skin tones. However, on me, I wasn’t in love with it. It was a bit too yellow for me. Also, you know how I prefer high-contrast colours against my skin tone.

Still, as Tim Gunn would say, “Make it work!” So, I did. You’ll remember that not long ago, I showed you some nifty nail art I did using this plus another Liquid Sand nail polish from the same collection.

After that, I think Honey Ryder is a great base for textured nail art. It’s a great neutral that allows any design to really pop.

Want to know what my favourite Liquid Sand from the Bond Girls Collection coming out in May is? OPI Jinx!

You may remember seeing this when I did a sneak peek of it on Instagram.

This orange-based coral nail polish is such a fun spring/summer colour.

It’s what I would describe as charismatic – OPI Jinx is like an arresting sunset that takes your breath away and commands your attention.

Although I wasn’t home to take photos of this in the sunlight, I assure you that it sparkles like a demon in the sun! It’s like glittery lava – hot stuff!

If you’re looking for a polish that makes you think of the beach and summer barbecues, it’s Jinx!

P.S. My all-time favourite Liquid Sand that I’ve worn so far is OPI Get Your Number, but OPI Jinx comes close behind in second!

OPI Solitaire is, the white Liquid Sand from the upcoming Bond Girls Collection due out in May.

I don’t often wear white nail polish, so this was certainly an interesting change of pace.

Ever since I first talked about the OPI Bond Girls Collection, many of my readers expressed great interest in Solitaire.

So, I’m finally getting around to fulfilling the request to see this unique Liquid Sand in greater detail.

Hope you enjoy this review! And, I’m curious – now that you see it close up, does OPI Solitaire live up to your expectations, or were you hoping for something else?

After wearing OPI Polka.com over Essie Mint Candy Apple (a mint green) as a full manicure, I was itching to try layering it over other colours.

So what did I do? I scratched that itch!

My OPI Polka.com Layering Combinations confirmed my suspicions – this glittery nail polish is truly versatile.

In this post, you’ll see how it looks absolutely stunning over everything from a pale yellow to a jet black.

If you’re a fan of glitter and layering it over different-coloured basis, I highly recommend that you pick up OPI Polka.com before it’s too late. This is one of the more interesting glitters, and it creates a neat Easter-egg, speckled effect!

There are some nail polishes that make me feel like such a lady…even if I’m wearing sweatpants and stuffing my face with kettle-cooked chips (Kettle Chips in Honey Dijon, FYI). I know…sexy beast, right? 😉

Although its name isn’t very lady-like, when I wore OPI Pussy Galore from the Bond Girls Collection due out in May, I certainly felt prim and proper.

For one thing, I don’t often wear light pinks, so that may have something to do with it. Also, there’s something about this particular shade and finish that makes me feel this way. More on that later!
