Hey everyone, today I have another summer 2014 collection to share with you all and this one is from Nicole by OPI. This island-inspired collection is called "Seize the Summer" and it features three bright creams and one fun glitter. To see some swatches, click.......

The Coral of the Story:
A rich and bright coral, The Coral of the Story is super pigmented and it is almost opaque in one coat, I used two just in case. The polish also has a beautiful shine, even without a top coat.

Leapink for Joy:
This one is a classic baby pink cream with a super shiny finish. The formulation is pretty good but I had to use three coats just to make sure it's completely streak-free.

Lay It on the Lime:
This one is a unique pale greenish yellow. The formulation is a bit sheer and even after three coats and  I experienced some streaking, as you can see from the swatches below.

Shaved Nice:
This one is a super fun glitter that's quite similar to Muppet's World Tour, which is a mixture of matte white, shiny silver, blue, and pink glitters. Shaved Nice is a mixture of matte white, shiny silver, green, pink, and orange glitters. The formula is really nice and there are plenty of glitters suspended in the clear base.
The swatches below features one coat of Shaved Nice over Leapink for Joy.

So there you have it, Seize the Summer Collection from Nicole by OPI. I really love The Coral of the Story and Shaved Ice, Leapink for Joy has a good formula but it is a color I have way too many of and Lay it on the Lime is a bit sheer for my liking.
