My OPI collection is growing little by little and the latest addition is the slightly off-white shade you can see as the base here -
Cream in my Coffee. I love the look of white nails but I think pure, brilliant white is a little bit much sometimes. I've been looking for a softer, creamy white for a while and this one ticked all the boxes.
The only beef I have with OPI is that their light shades always need quite a lot of coats for opacity as the polish is very thin. Although they make up for it by never seeming to thicken and wearing for days without chipping. This shade needs three to four coats if you want to wear it alone but I used two and then topped it up by sponging on a few layers of gradient.
How To
I used two coats of
OPI Cream in My Coffee then used it with
W7 Baby Pink to create the gradient.
I stamped on the lace design from MoYou Stamping Plate
Bridal Collection 06 using
BK Matte White polish.
It's all topped with a coat of
Glisten & Glow HK Girl.
