On to the nail stuff!
Today I want to show you some quick and dirty swatches of Sally Hansen's Star and Fire Opals. As one of my future projects I will one day swatch them all to show their true beauty; but in the meantime, during my BLOG SALE I've been asked a few times what they look like, so here they are. Seeing as the bottles are painted and the actual lacquers are fairly sheer colours, these beauties show up best when layered over black or dark colours.
Ready to see them?
01 Pure White Star Opal
02 Crystal Star Opal
03 Fire Star Opal
04 Rose Gold Star Opal
05 - I don't own it yet
06 Red Star Opal
07 Violet Star Opal
08 Pale Lilac Star Opal
09 Goldspun Fire Opal
10 - I don't own it yet
11 Amber Fire Opal
12 Bright Fire Opal
13 Flame Fire Opal
14 Blush Fire Opal
15 Wildfire Fire Opal (see the full swatch on nails HERE)
16 Royal Fire Opal
Here's one photo of what 15 Wildfire Opal looks like on the nails, it's layered over black. And yes, eventually I plan on swatching them all.
It's too bad that these are old and long time discontinued by Sally Hansen. I must admit that I dismissed these beauties when I first tried them but how can you once you see what they look like over black?! I'm in love with these, I must say! I'm really excited to find the other 2 I'm missing from this collection. I hope it happens soon!
Till next time!
