I hope everyone is having a spectacular holiday season! I hit the polish motherload. I'm usually exceptionally difficult to buy gifts for so when I told my family I wanted nail polish... they went overboard. I couldn't be happier! I've also been checking out sales. Sally's had the China Glaze Holiday Joy collection clearanced and 50% off. How could I pass that up?
I received the entire OPI Skyfall collection and Casino Royale happens to be my favorite movie ever so picking a first new polish to use was a no brainer.
I used a base of Orly Bonder, as per usual. Then painted on two coats of OPI Casino Royale to get opacity. I love the color. Casino Royale, which is part of the OPI Skyfall Holiday 2012 collection, is an earthy/purple tinted burgundy creme. Casino Royale went on perfectly, no streaks or gloopiness. I coated it off with a single coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

I kept just the Casino Royale on for about a day before deciding I needed to try out another new nail polish. I got a lot of new glitters so I attempted a glitter gradient. I didn't have enough time to sink a lot of effort into it but I liked the result.
I used one 'coat' of Sinful Colors All About You. All About You is a tiny gold glitter with a some orange glitters in a clear base. I can't say much about the formula since the way I applied it purposely let it partially dry before dragging it down the nail. It's jam packed with glitter though.

The glitter really didn't want to photograph. I used a ton more than it looks like based on this picture. I loved the combo though and hope this lasts for a few days!
