nail color of the week: OPI Lincoln Park After Dark

if you are a fan of dark polishes or nail polish in general, chances are you have OPI's Lincoln Park After Dark in your collection. i myself love this color because it is such a dark shade of purple, it can appear to be black. i find that with only two coats, the purple tone (photo above left) is more apparent outdoors, while three coats makes it look more eggplant (photo above right).

now if you don't own this color, you can pretty much find it in any nail salon that features OPI. try it out for your next mani, and let me know what you think.

nail color of the week: Notorious by Jessica Cosmetics

i had to wear a dark color this week. i don't know what the urge was, but i needed to see my tips in a dark color. earlier this week, i told you about my shopping trip to Target, where i happened to pick up some nail color, and it turns out one of them was a dark shade from Jessica called Notorious.

i love this color-- a shimmery red-black shimmer that is similar to Sally Hansen's Glossy but instead takes on a more deep purple cast in dimmer lighting. the shimmer is very fine, so it's very pretty.

what do you think?
