OPI released two new shades in the Designer Series line not so long ago. One of the two shades is a shade named Glow. It’s a wonderful golden-bronze shade. But unlike other DS polishes, this isn’t a holographic shade. I don’t know what OPI was thinking releasing Glow under DS line, which was a holographic line up to now. That said, I’m not disappointed by the shade itself, because I just love Glow! It sparkles like crazy and it has foil or metallic finish. It’s full of tiny gold and bronze flakies. Not your regular big flakies, but tiny ones. They look like tiny metal particles. I really love it! And the shade is just right in between gold and bronze. It suits my skin tone perfectly. Look…
I had no application issues. Two coats in the picture.
I fell in love with Glow as I first saw swatches of it and I wasn’t disappointed. What do you think? Why did OPI release non-holographic shades in DS line?
Pred kratkim je OPI razširil svojo Designer Series linijo za dva odtenka. Oba odtenka sta bila za marsikoga neprijetno presenečenje, kajti nobeden od njiju ni holografski, kot smo navajeni od ostalih DS odtenkov. Eden od njiju je odtenek z imenom Glow. Vanj sem se zaljubila, ko sem ga prvič videla na fotografijah ostalih blogerk. Tudi v živo me ni razočaral. Gre resnično za zelo lep odtenek, ki je ravno nekje na sredi med zlato in bakreno. Vsebuje ogromno majhnih zlatih in bakrenih krpic. Krpice izgledajo kot mini metalne krpice. Na nohtih se neverjetno lepo lesketa. Izredno mi je všeč in lepo se poda k moji polti.
Fotografije mu žal delajo krivico. V živo je še lepši. Z nanašanjem nisem imela nobenih težav. Na fotografiji sta dve plasti.
Res ne vem, kaj so si pri OPIju mislili, ko so pod DS linijo izdali ta odtenek, a mene niso razočarali. Kako pa se vam zdi?
Very pretty! :wub: Some of the older DS colors were not holo, it’s not just these new ones :) It happens every now and then. I guess they like to mix it up lol
GreenEyedFairy, I didn’t know that some of the older DS colors weren’t holo. Do you maybe know the names of the non-holo ones? I’m totally curious. Thank you for your comment!
adorei o blog,tem optimas dicas :)
Thank you, mariana! I’m glad you like it!
I love it on your pictures especially close up. And yes it suits you perfectly I have Mystery second non holographic shade and it is very nice polish but I expected something more. I want old holo efect in DS line back! I opet divne, divne fotke!
Day, thank you! I can’t decide about Mystery. It’s looks lovely in the bottle, but I’m afraid it might be too dark on the nail and the gold particles not visible enough. I’m still deciding, if I should buy it or not.
Very pretty indeed :)
Well I’d say the same as you :D P.S. I’ve nominated you for a blog award: http://xoxo-parisky.blogspot.com/2009/08/blog-award-inglorious-basterds.html
I agree, it’s a very pretty color but not a DS. Although I have noticed that the last few DS are not nearly as holo as the previous. I want mega holo!
