OPI You Don't Know Jacques

Hi everyone!  Here's an oldie but goodie.  I always love wearing this one.

NOTW: SH CSM Haute Chocolate

This nail lacquer is pretty typical of the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polishes as far as ease of application and durability.  





It's a metallic, frosty shade of brown.  Kind of coppery and rusty all at the same time. 

Here it really looks brown, doesn't it? 

In these 2 pictures, it almost looks like a burgundy or wine shade.

In this extreme close-up, it looks more rusty.  I'd say IRL it appears more brown than anything.  It was hard to capture the true color of this polish.  I am not in love with this color, but I do like it.  Very nice wintry shade.  On a side note, how do you like my nubbins?  I keep breaking one and have to keep making them all even.  Obviously, I am OCD.......ya think?

NOTD: China Glaze Ingrid

Ingrid is from the Fall 2010 China Glaze Vintage Vixen collection that was released in July 2010.  She is a medium brown with a micro gold shimmer.  The shimmer isn't as noticeable unless in direct sunlight.  I still like her though, just not in love.  She is very office appropriate, which is great for me.

 These are the products used:

• CND Stickey Base Coat (Love this!) - 1 Coat
• Gelous Advanced Nail Gel Coat (Love this too!)  - 1 coat
• China Glaze Ingrid - 2 coats
• Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat - 1 coat
• Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream (Smells yummy)

See how she kinda looks like a regular dark brownish taupe creme indoors?

This was taken next to the window.  I was able to capture some of the gold shimmer.

Had to open the front door to get some sun for this shot.  Pretty gold shimma!
