I talked about Halloween a little bit in an earlier post. I really like the fall. For some reason this time of year is just my favorite. The air gets cooler, crisper... the colors of the leaves, the apples, the harvest. I don't know, I just love it. Anyway, Halloween is all a part of it too! I love horror movies, blood and gore are awesome (just don't show someone up-chucking, I can't stand that). OPI's new mini set is really cute. They did a good array of colors and styles. I will warn, my sun started going away and my outdoor shots started sucking, so only half the post is really any good, LOL!
This is 2 coats of OPI Unripened alone. This went on nice and smooth, good coverage, no trouble getting it on. In the bottle you can see a hint of purple in the blue shimmer, but I couldn't capture it on my camera and honestly I didn't really see it on my nails IRL either.
This is 2 coats of OPI Nevermore. If you have OPI Ink, you do NOT need this color. I actually have Ink on one of the four fingers shown here (honest!) Can you tell which one? Application was good, again, nice and smooth, good coverage, no real issues. I love Ink, it's purple which blue and magenta and awesomeness! If you don't have Ink, get it... at least you'll get a full size amount of this beauty.
This is 2 coats of OPI Obscurity. A nice flat matte black. Application was great. It does dry fast, but not too fast to be able to apply it evenly. It gave good coverage, I can't complain.
This is the most suck-tastic pic of the bunch. I could not capture this color indoors or outdoors with the lack of sun. Anyway, this is 3 coats OPI Sanguine. It's a really nice deep merlot type wine-like red. It gets really dark in shadow and has a good shimmer in the light. Sorry my pic sucks so bad, lol.
So overall, not a bad group of colors. I am disappointed that one is a dupe for a fave of mine. Oh well. I think it's cute that they included a little stretch lacey bracelet too, lol. What they should have done is included black eyeliner! Then I could get some too-light compact powder and brownish lipstick and relive my highschool days. Hahahaha. Just kidding... I won't subject you all to that, don't worry. Happy Fall!!

Unripened looks very similar to that Cult Nails color. Regardless, I love it! I featured it on my blog and wanted to come by and let you know :)
