OPI Rose Petals + China Glaze Fairy Dust


I'm "romancing" my favorite nail polishes before they are put into storage. Good thing that nail polish has a long shelf life because there's heaps I've only worn once!

This is an old favorite which I wear to job interviews. I bought it online in the hope that it was a dupe for a gorgeous Testimo by Kanebo nail polish. A Japanese friend kindly gave me her bottle (already half empty) because I raved about the colour. I've revived the heck out of it with thinner because I love it so much. The bottle is a keepsake and I dare not use what's left!

While Rose Petals was'nt the perfect dupe, it's still a pretty dusty pink. It's the quintessential bridal french manicure pink. A little sheer as you can see. I applied two coats of Rose Petals and to jazz it up, I applied a coat of Fairy Dust. So sparkly and girly!

  1. Very pretty and wearable!

    I can't bring myself to commit to buying any nail polish that's too expensive at the moment. When I am working full time again, I will definitely splurge on some OPIs.

  2. Thanks bowsnhearts! If you need a new nail polish fix, I suggest ulta3. You can find usually find them at Soul Pattersons or Amcal. For $2 a bottle and an awesome range of colours, you can't go wrong!

  5. Yes Brill Brunette, it's subtle. The glitter is so tiny, you can barely feel it on your nails. Wish I brought the Fairy Dust with me to London so I need to another substitute. :(
