On My Nails: Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine! (& Quick Update)

By icyabstract · October 20, 2012 · 0 Comments ·

What a quirky (and long) name for this polish and it faintly reminds me of Hitler... tsk.

I normally prefer darker tones when I have shorter nails so after (finally) trimming my nails down, I took this opportunity to swatch on OPI Germany's Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine!

Yes I am still going through the Germany batch one at a time.

The swatches are 2 coats of Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine!, without a top coat so you can see the color's glossy glory.


(with camera flash)

The color is fairly straight forward but still lovely — a darkened olive that is almost black yet not not quite. It isn't so dark that under dim lighting it is a flat black, no, you can still see mild greenish tones running through it.

I have been wearing it for over a week now and while I love it, dark creamy tones have a tendency to bore me after awhile, no matter what brand and how gorgeous.

I think I need a color kick in my life again so I will be moving on to something else real soon.

In other news, work is picking up again with the influx of assignments, along with home-matters to tend to after and on weekends thus time has been on the tighter side these days.

I have just been a wee bit overwhelmed with everything and my life is a little on the routinal track thus isn't overly exciting and is a lot of rushing about with my makeup routine (work or weekend) being at its peak of simplicity (really just foundation, brows and blush) thus I apologize for any blah-ness going on here! In truth, I would love to have some me-time for a bit but that's a little hard to achieve at the moment.

I am working at clearing the backlogged stuff by drafting with Evernote (awesome app btw) when I get some time on-the-go but there's only so much you can jot down while you're out and about!

Lastly, I have news to share sometime down the road. I am still in the process of putting that news to words but... yes I will share it shortly and when it's ready. Stay tuned :)

Thanks for sticking around and reading still!
