OPI DS Magic Review and Swatch

I have an exciting new addition to my collection - OPI Designer Series "Magic."

I have had OPI DS Temptation on my wish list for quite some time, but it's a little hard to find.  I had a $5 off $10 purchase at Ulta today and I consider it a sin not to use it ;-)  I was browsing the nail polish section (of course) and DS Magic slapped me in the face.  I grabbed it and my daughter said "that is the most beautiful polish I have ever seen!"  I had to agree and decided it was going home with me.

Within minutes of arriving home, I slapped this baby on and the choir started singing.  I grabbed my camera and took about 150 shots.  Not only is it a cloudy/misty day, but this polish seems to be one of those polishes that doesn't like cameras.  There is blue and purple duochrome in it and it's soooo hard to capture in a photo.  I Googled other images and noticed that many of them showed up bright sparkly blue.  Most of my photos looked bright blue as well, but I wasn't going to post those because that's not what it looks like in real life.  The blue is so rich and deep and you can really see the purple mixed in with the naked eye.   

 I probably should have waited until it was brighter outside, but I just had to share.  I picked the photos that captured it the best and I hope you can see the true beauty of this polish.  If you can't - grab your $5 off coupon and run to Ulta ASAP to see it.  Designer Series polishes are a little more expensive than regular OPI.  I think they are like $12.50???  But with the coupon - or even without, I highly recommend this one.

I hope you have a little more sun in your neck of the woods.
