OPI San Francisco Swatches and Review (part 2)

Today I would like to show you the remainder of the OPI San Francisco collection. This half of the collection includes the warmer hues of the brown and red family. Similarly to the first half, it includes both creams and shimmery shades...


Lost on Lombard
A reddish brown cream. It has a nice smooth formula that is easy to apply. Two coats will provide full, even coverage. Swatches are with no top coat...



Swatch Details
Brand: OPI
Collection: San Francisco, Fall 2013
Color Name/Number: Lost on Lombard, NL F59
Number of coats: 2
Top Coat: No

Free of Formaldehyde, Toluene, Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP)

I Knead Sour-Dough
A medium brown with a coppery pink shimmer. The first coat is a bit streaky, but it evens out to full coverage by two coats as seen in these swatches. It has an interesting somewhat hazy or dusty feel to it. No top coat...

Color Name/Number: I Knead Sour-Dough, NL F60
Number of coats: 2
Top Coat: No

Muir Muir on the Wall
A black jelly with a plum shimmer. This is somewhat sheer, but builds to full coverage by two coats. I used three for these swatches because the nail edge was still sheer and I wanted to wrap it one more time. If that's not something that bugs you, you can easily get away with two coats. This is such gorgeous and deep shade. A definite favorite from this half. Swatches are with no top coat...

In the Cable Car-Pool Lane
A deep mulberry cream. It does have some jelly quality to it. Streaky on first coat, but easily builds up to good coverage at two coats and perfect at three, which is what I have here. I didn't have any problems with application of this. Love deep colors such as this! No top coat here...

A reddish brown cream. This is similar, but lighter than Lost on Lombard. The formula is nice and creamy, easy to apply. It has good coverage in 2-3 coats. I ended up using three coats to even it out. Swatches are with no top coat...
