Classic Cremes OPI Brights Collection 2009 Mini Kit

Hello my dear fiends, I am back!

New York was awesome, as usual! But alas, lots of work, not really any time to play. I did manage to sneak out for a quick drugstore haul though ;-) I will present ym loot in one of my next posts to you. For today, I picked out a fun OPI Mini Kit that I really like. I like the Mini Kits in general, I think the value you get for the money is okay and often I don't really need the big bottle of some colors. So today, I am presenting the OPI Brights 2009 Mini Kit. The Kit features 3 colors from the OPI Brights Collection (which had in total 6 different shades) plus the OPI Rapidry Topcoat which is included in all of OPI's Mini Kits.
I really like the formula of these, here we got cremes that apply all smooth and silky, no streaking or gloopyness here. The Pink and the Purple were both three coaters to be totally opaque, the Orange was two.
I also found these colors work fantastic if you do Konad stamping with them. I have heard, there are quite some Dupes out there for the Brights Collection, but honestly, I don't think the is a true Dupe for the orange shade, but then again, that's just my humble personal opinion. But now on to the PicSpam!


Group shot of the Kit :-)



On the same Paige - in my opinion, this is not orange, but a gorgeous rich orange-red shade, one of the few oranges that actually works with my cool tones skin, I just love this!




Shorts Story - hot pink, no more comment. This is a fantastic bright cool toned pink bubblegum shade. I guess I don't own a single bright pink polish that is not a shimmer, glitter or duochrome...yup this is definitely the only pink creme I own. Shame on me.




A Grape Fit - nice rich lilac. That's about it. To me, this is the only color that is dort of "blah" for me. There are quite some dupes for it out there in the polish world, try OPI's do you lilac it? for instance. But still, this is nice.



So that's it for now my dear fiends. Oh, I forgot to mention, as you might be able to tell, poor Auntie Charis broke two nails during the trip. Boo Hoo!!! So I am back to sporting shorties *sigh*
