Swatch: OPI - Do You Have This Color In Stock-Holm?

This colour was very hard to get a accurate photo of, the flash made it much brighter and more neon. Without the flash though it showed up a bit darker than it was, it is darker than it looks in the bottle.

-- -- -- --

From the top ten polishes I chose my top three;

3) OPI - Do You Have This Color In Stock-Holm? - This purple is a gorgeous cream finish polish, it looks vibrant in the bottle but translates to the nails quite a bit darker. 

2) Nails Inc - New York Noir - This polish is a one coat black cream finish polish. It is great to wear alone, or as a base. I also found that I could use this to stamp with. Something which I have gotten a lot of use from during 2014.

1) W7 - Twilight - Meaning that Twilight is my favorite nail polish of 2014, I did struggle to choose between this and the black however the black wasn't special enough to win. This is a purple to navy (with a slight lean to pink) glass flecked duochrome polish, which works on it's own or over a dark base. I liked this polish so much I used it to create a 'dragons egg'. It is dark and magical and that is what I really like.
