Bubble Gum & Cotton Candy: OPI's Yodel Me On My Cell and Princesses Rule!

Another OPI gelcolor post for you lovelies... I am obsessed with this product. I have to say that I am less adventurous with gel nail polish as compared to others. That being said, I want to direct you to check out the lovely Gelli fied at Gel-Luv... this girl is amazing! She has done gel nail art, gel ombre manis, and even gel saran wrap manis. Go on check her out and show some love!

Since I declared it the winter of the trigger mani, I present another one today. I think it's just a way for me to get away with wearing multiple colors and being just a bit edgy. I absolutely adore how the gel formula translates the OPI shades. They are so glossy, squishy, and complex. I have to say, I catch myself staring at my nails just a bit too much. Most of all these polishes wear like iron and soak off with the foil method very easily.




Yodel Me On My Cell is a stunning green leaning teal from the Swiss Collection. It's sparkly, shimmery and in the right light you can get a gorgeous emerald glow. All in all a true cyan blue. I do have to say it's similar to Unfor-greta-bly Blue, but the German Collection shade is more violet.



Princesses Rule! is a soft glittery pastel pink from the Princesses Charming Collection. The shine is spectacular with this color and the pale rose and silver micro glitter dances in the light. ( Note this is four coats and there is still VNL- visible nail line) Also, dupe for Zoya's Gei Gei from their Lovely Collection, anyone?


I am so excited to share some news with all of you, I have discovered a new brand on Etsy and will be doing a huge feature on them! It impressed me so much I went and bought four bottles... yeah. 

Color me addicted.

  1. I'm a bit late, but thanks so much for the "shout out"!

    How did you know I've been eying up those two OPI Gelcolor colors, too? And you make them look very enticing!

    I also love your idea of a "trigger mani"; your boldness has made me become more adventurous in what nails I pick as "accent nails" for myself and friends/family.

    1. Anytime, chica! It's my pleasure! As the lovely Kelly always tells me when I am wanting a polish "Treat yo self" :) I definitely love random accent nails. A big fan of the accent thumb here...lol

  2. Wow, that BLUE!! So gorgeous! I haven't tried gel polishes yet, mainly because of the expense for the equipment and new polishes.

    Looking forward to seeing this new brand that you plan to feature! I love discovering new indie brands :)
