This week's Nail Wheel Wednesday features glitters from Nicole by OPI plus some miscellaneous brands to fill out the wheel. I was surprised I had as many Nicoles as I do, since for a long time I wouldn't buy them because of the bottle shape; something about its asymmetry is just not appealing to my eye. But then I got one as an extra in a swap and found I liked the polish inside the bottle and as so often happens, once I had one from the brand in my stash, I started getting more to keep that bottle company

Side view of a Nicole bottle; this doesn't look stable to me—it isn't tippy in practice, it just looks like it would be:
I am going to have to do some glitter skittles manis just to get more of these beauties out into the world more often. Thank goodness I work at a company that doesn't care what I wear as long as I show up and do my job.
oooh i like Let's Get Star-ted! I have one of the heart shaped glitters but I've never seen stars! Cool.
ReplyDeleteI love glitters!
ReplyDeleteThe 6 is my favorite!
Oh I love glitters and all things glittery. I have not seen the stars they are super cute
ReplyDeleteLoved seeing all your fun glitter polishes! :) Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if NOPI knows that their bottle is such a turn off? It's crazy because they make some of the prettiest colours. Maybe it doesn't matter. I have a bunch of NOPIs because I couldn't resist the polish inside. But seriously that bottle is the worst!
ReplyDeleteNicole has really pretty glitter polish, especially the purple star glitters. like what Rikki said, they should really change the bottle design.
ReplyDeleteThx for sharing all these swatches...my wallet does not thank you tho :)
ReplyDeleteThe bottle doesn't bother me and I love a lot of these for glittery topcoats...one of my faves is pitch black glimmer...pepper for nails...its unique to me and I love it!
Yay! I love your wheel posts! You were my inspiration for my crackle wheel!
ReplyDeleteThose glitter hearts are so cute!
ReplyDeleteUgh, I feel the same way about the Niccole by OPI bottles. *shudder* The heart glitter is so cute, though.
