OPI Euro Centrale 2013 Collection - Part 1

Today I'm excited to show you the first half of the OPI Euro Centrale Spring/Summer collection. This half contains mostly creams and one gorgeous glitter named polka.com which can be layered over any of them. Did anyone else try to visit polka.com half expecting to see something from OPI? The website disappointed  but these gorgeous lacquers do not...


OPI…Eurso Euro - "This deep blue cream is very continental."
A gorgeous dark navy blue cream. Smooth two coat formula that applies beautifully. No staining of the skin or nails which is a huge plus for me, as I've been burned on similar shades. This might be my favorite from this half of the collection. I love that it is so dark, but does not appear black when applied on the nail. Swatches are two coats with a top coat...

Polka.com - "Blue and violet are dancing partners in this glittery combo."

Suzi’s Hungary AGAIN! - "Thank goodness there are zero calories in this warm and yummy pink!"
A coral pink cream with a hidden pearly shimmer. My camera for some reason freaked out on this shade. In real life it is not actually more pink than peach as it appears in the photos. I used three thin coats for complete coverage. With a top coat...

You’re Such a BudaPest - "If I let you borrow this periwinkle-purple, will you go away?"
A lavender cream with a subtle silvery shimmer. This shade really screams spring to me. The formula is a bit thin to start with, but builds up to full coverage at three coats. It is very pretty and I love the slight hint of shimmer. No top coat in these swatches...

Can’t Find My Czechbook - "I hope you take credit, because I must have this aqua!"
A teal/turquoise cream. Great smooth, creamy formula with full coverage at two coats. This is definitely way up there as far as favorites go for me. Such a beautiful shade. Swatches are two coats with no top coat...

My Paprika is Hotter than Yours! - "Get the extinguisher...this fiery red is sizzling!"
A reddish orange cream with a soft hidden coppery shimmer. It is nicely pigmented and provides full coverage at two coats. The hidden shimmer softens this up and makes it very wearable. Swatches are two coats with no top coat...

  4. I really like polka.com so I guess I'll have to go out and get it. I'm actually wearing a number of these colors right now and I must say the colors in the bottle don't do justice to the color once applied. Great swatches.

  5. I liked this collection a lot (much more than OPI Germany - yes, I'll never stop complaining :), and I think the Euro blue polish is amazing :) The glitter is very cute too!

  7. Thank you so much ladies! There are so many pretties in this collection! Really something for everyone and the cute polka.com glitter to top them all :)

    @ritterbraten, oh no, I had no idea you didn't like the Germany collection so much. I thought they had some beautiful shades also.
    Eurso Euro is so beautiful :)
