OPI Come to Poppy

Hello hello!  I feel like I haven't made a post in a long time, even though it's my normal post day.  Maybe it's because I worked 9 days in a row...I have today and tomorrow off so I don't really care anymore.

This post is featuring the mani/pedi that I got while on vacation with Sissy.  I shocked myself twice in one day: my hands and feet matched AND I paid for a simple manicure that I could have just as easily done myself.  Another shock was the mani/pedi was sub-par.  All they really did was clean up my cuticles and moisturize then paint my nails.  Didn't even exfoliate my feet.  And I have scary ex-dancer feet so I have a huge build up of calluses.  Not too happy about that.

Anyway, this is OPI Come to Poppy from the Nice Stems collection.  Lovely hot pink creme with silver shimmer.  I own a lot of pink (surprise surprise!) and I think it ended up matching almost every dark or hot pink article of clothing I own.  Also, there is so much silver shimmer in it that it was almost difficult to get all the silver micro sparkles off of my nails after all the pink came off.



This was the best picture I could get since I was on a moving boat.  All the other ones were horribly blurry and you couldn't exactly tell what you were looking at.

However, in the matter of shade excluding the shimmer: exactly the same as Ulta Fuchsiamania.  Now, it's my opinion that Come to Poppy would be a better buy just because it lasted much longer.  I don't know if it's just this certain top coat I was using but I think I'm going to throw it out.  Every manicure I do with it ending up chipping horribly.
