But of course, indies are not the only polishes I own.
Today I have a stunning polish that has been sitting in my untrieds basket for quite some time.
OPI You Only Live Twice is from the 2012 Skyfall collection - the collection that I own the most polishes from, it really was a winner in all areas.
I love me a good red polish, but have never really considered it a colour I love. However, the Skyfall collection had quite a few reds, and I managed to purchase all but one of them...
You Only Live Twice is a bright magenta packed with fuschia and gold shimmer. I know it probably leans more towards pink, but I definitely thought it could pass as a weak red.
I thought to add some pizazz to the simplicity of the OPI, I applied small black circular studs. Black and red is always a classic colour combination.
Unfortunately, I wasn't too sure if I liked this manicure. After some deliberation, I thought maybe the studs were too small. Oh well, it still looked simple, yet lovely and it wasn't something I felt the need to remove straight away.
You Only Live Twice applied awesomely. While a wee bit sheer, it only required three coats for full opacity and like most OPIs, it wore very well with only minimal chipping and tip wear.
