OPI Steady as She Rose - MoYou London rose stamping nail art

Forever ago when the OPI Pirates of The Caribbean collection was released in 2011 I never bought Steady as She Rose, even though I LOVE these type of colors. It’s a muted lilac, in some lights it can look a little gray. I finally bought it and what in the world was I waiting for, it’s gorgeous! Check out what I came up with using some of the other colors from this collection.





Steady as She Rose is so soft and pretty, in some lighting you can see more purple. It is a little thin but I still got even coverage with 2 coats.





I did some stamping with MoYou London Biker plate 06 and chose some roses to match the name. I made decals by stamping onto a plastic baggie so I could paint them in, once they are dry you can cut them to shape and peel them off the baggie and apply to the nail. The black is Julep Brandt, and for the gray roses I used Skulls & Glossbones which is another color from this collection. I added a little sparrow for duh Jack Sparrow lol The green is Stranger Tides which could be my most fav polish. It’s actually the polish that really got me into collecting!





I’m so glad I finally gave in and bought Steady as She Rose, it is everything I thought it would be! I do have some similar colors but I’m just going to ignore that lol Thanks for stopping by!

Gridlock Lacquer Halloween polish - Haunted at Central Terminal

Hey my scary Friends, is it too early for some Halloween nail art? NEVER!!!

Today I have a Gridlock Lacquer Halloween polish to review, Haunted at Central Terminal. If you live in Buffalo you are probably familiar with The Central Terminal, if not click the link for some history.

When I opened the package with this polish I got so excited! It looks so witchy and perfect for Halloween. It has a black jelly base jam packed with black, orange, purple, and a touch of teal glitter. I was thinking it was going to be more of a glitter topper, but when I applied it to a swatch stick (which was immediately by the way, I need to try it ASAP lol) it was full coverage! This is no wimpy glitter, it’s fully opaque at 2 coats.

Onto pics!



Tell me this isn’t Halloween in a bottle. I especially love the square purple glitter.





Haunted at Central Terminal applied nicely and the glitter dispersed onto the nail evenly without having to mess with it. I applied with slow even strokes and that was enough to get the glitter to lay smooth.





For my accent nail I used another Gridlock Lacquer polish, Garden Walk a metallic purple. I think they look pretty great together! The stamping is MoYou London Biker plate 08.





As you can see I had a little fun taking these pics with some of my Halloween decorations lol



I have a feeling this polish will get a lot of use come October, I want to pair it with an orange next. Check out Gridlock Lacquer forgot groups polishes, Haunted at Central Terminal will be up soon, I'll update once it does!

(This polish was sent to me for review)
