OPI Nutcracker and the Four Realms Collection 2018, Swatches and Review

PR SAMPLES

Hey Dolls!

I am so incredibly excited to share the OPI Nutcracker and the Four Realms Collection 2018 with you today!  I know that the Holidays are over, but as if that matters when it comes to sharing gorgeous polishes right?

I was so excited to receive the Nutcracker and the Four Realms Collection and the polish that I was the most excited for was Tinker, Thinker, Winker?  When I was opening up the package, I could smell polish and my heart sank because I knew it meant that one of them was broken.  I'm sure you can guess which one broke... Tinker, Thinker, Winker?  I was able to pour a tiny little bit that was left in the bottle into another empty bottle and I was able to do a few swatches with it.  You'll see them below.

First up is the lovely Dreams Need Clara-fication, a sweet, soft blue with purple undertones.  The formula was great, two easy coats.

Lavendare to Find Courage is a beautiful lavender with pink undertones.  This one has an amazing formula, I almost got away with one coat!  I ended up doing two for my swatches to make sure everything was perfectly covered.

I was able to put one coat of Tinker, Thinker, Winker? over Dreams Need Clara-fication and Lavendare to Find Courage.  Tinker, Thinker, Winker? is a fabulous scattered holo top coat.  I've read online that it can be used as a topper or built up to be opaque in three coats.  I am going to have to purchase a bottle of this because it is so perfect!  I hope I can still find it.

Toying with Trouble is a vibrant raspberry pink cream.  I love OPI's bright pinks, the formulas are always perfect and the color never disappoints.  Two perfect coats.

Envy the Adventure is a bright grassy green cream.  The formula kind of had that funny rubbery feel that some greens and blues have, do you know what I'm talking about?  No complaints though, it was easy to work with.  Two coats.

March in Uniform is a stunning navy blue with purple undertones.  I was actually surprised at how much purple was in there, because most of the swatches that I saw looked navy.  Super pigmented, two easy coats.

I had to put a coat of Tinker, Thinker, Winker? over March in Uniform.  Loving this combo.

Dancing Keeps Me on My Toes is a pearly white with cute little bits of gold micro glitter swimming throughout.  The formula is sheer so I did three coats to get the opacity that I like.

Dazzling Dew Drop (how cute is that name?) is a fabulous shimmery gold.  There are so many gorgeous gold flecks in this beauty.  Two coats.

Berry Fairy Fun has purple and violet shimmery flecks in a berry purple base.  The formula was great, two easy coats.

Black to Reality is a stunning burgundy polish with the fieriest shimmer that makes it look like this polish is glowing.  OPI does some of the best shimmery glowy polishes!  This was a surprise favorite of mine.  Two perfect coats.

Candied Kingdom is a bright red cream.  A perfect OPI red formula, two easy coats.

And last but not least, is the gorgeous Ginger's Revenge, a deep red-burgundy cream.  Great formula and two easy coats.
