Go Luigi! - Dollish Polish & One Big Happy Fame-ily - Nicole by OPI

I have another polish from the box of happiness that Mimi sent me. Today, it's 'One Big Happy Fame-ily' from Nicole by OPI. This is another Kardashian Kolor and this one is a CVS exclusive. If you follow me on instagram or twitter (@PinpointPolish), you may have seen that I received my Dollish Polish Super Mario Bros. Collection in the mail the other day. I originally wasn't planning on adding anything to this mani, but with the Mario polishes winking at me, how could I resist and 'Go Luigi!' seemed the perfect glitter to go with 'One Big Happy Fame-ily'.

'One Big Happy Fame-ily' is one super pretty polish!! I don't generally wear a whole lot of purple polish. I think I've said it before, it's not that I don't like purple polish (far from it actually), it just doesn't often call my name ;) Well this polish was not so much calling but screaming to be worn. The silver shimmer in it is so gorgeous and not at all shy. As for 'Go Luigi!'... let's just say I think I am in love with this combo.

'Go Luigi!' is a simple mix of bright green and blue hexes with some silver stars in there too. I was worried that the stars may be hard to get out, but these two fingers were my first painted and the stars just happened to come straight out of the bottle. My other hand doesn't have any stars on it, but that's ok too. On my ring finger is two thin coats and on my middle finger is one thin coat.

I love the finish in 'One Big Happy Fame-ily'. It's that same type of shimmer/fleck/...? that we have seen a bit of lately (seen in collections like OPI's Holland collection etc). Definitely one of my favourtie finishes.

In the macro, it looks like the glitters are curling slightly, but I have to tell you it's a trick of the light! They really aren't, I promise. The corners of the one of the stars is sticking up slightly but I really should have made sure it was stuck fast before letting it dry (I will know for next time), but this isn't a biggy at all. I just popped a couple of layers of top coat on and it was mostly tamed (the hexes were no problem under a couple of coats of my thin top coat). As you can see here, the stars are actually holographic (as if this polish needed any more to love).



'One Big Happy Fame-ily' was super easy to apply. It is a little bit sheer, but three coats give good opacity. The polish is not too thin or thick and flows on really easily. As for 'Go Luigi!', again nice and easy. I mentioned the stars earlier and to add to that, I think if you wanted stars on every nail, some fishing may need to be done, but there are lots in there so if you're happy to just get them when you get them (like I did), then you will certainly get some. The hexes applied perfectly, staying where they were put, but I did employ the dabbing method as the stars did want to stay on the brush a little. I did use fairly thin coats of it, this is the kind of glitter where it's really easy to get more or less glitter coverage depending on what you feel like. Overall, like I said earlier, I am absolutely in love with both of these polishes. Thanks again Mimi for sending me the loveliness that is 'One Big Happy Fame-ily'!!!

If you are wanting to get your hands on the Super Mario Bros. collection, you may be in luck as it will be on Llarowe today (Wednesday) at 1pm and 7pm MDT, though as usual they will fly out the door like hotcakes I'm sure.
