Today I have some swatches of the OPI 2013 Breast Cancer collection!
Every year, OPI would release 1 - 2 pink related polishes in support for spreading breast cancer awareness and this year is no different. The polishes released this year are 'Pink-ing Of You' and 'More Than A Glimmer'.
In the pictures, I have about 3 coats of 'Pink-ing Of You' on my index & pinky fingers, 3 coats of 'More Than A Glimmer' on my middle finger, and 1 coat of 'More Than A Glimmer' over 'Pink-ing Of You' on my ring finger.
'Pink-ing Of You' is a cute bubble gum pink that dries a glossy jelly finish! I didnt have any top coat on but look at how they are reflecting the light! The formula is really smooth and lasted 3 days without top coat on me. Isn't that fantastic?
'More Than A Glimmer' is a really unique polish! It has a milky pale pink base filled with multi-sized pink, blue, green and gold glitters.. but that's not all! It's also a matte top coat! Isn't that amazing? Check out how it turns 'Pink-ing Of You' matte on my ring finger! *impressed*
One last photo for a closer look - OPI's breast cancer collection for this year is definitely one of the more impressive ones with the matte glitter top coat. If you have not, I would recommend you to grab this up since it's limited edition!
OPI Pink of Hearts 2013 is now available at http://polishalley.com. Do check it out! :)

Swatch: China Glaze Hello Gorgeous
Hey ladies! I have another glitter swatch post today and it's China Glaze Hello Gorgeous! Very appropriate, don't you think so?
Hello Gorgeous! is one of the two glitter polishes in China Glaze's 2012 Breast Cancer Awareness collection - United In Purpose.
Hello Gorgeous! is a mixture of a few colours of small fine glitters, mainly baby pink, light gold and holographic glitters in a clear base. It is very similar to 'I'm Not Lion' from the Safari collection, just changing the champagne glitters to baby pink.
The other glitter in the collection - United, is very similar to Hello Gorgeous! except that it's about a shade darker.
In direct sunlight. Formula for this polish very good, it's smooth to apply and gives complete coverage in 2 coats. It'll be the type of glitter that covers the base completely rather than a layering glitter.
Hello Gorgeous! also dries matte and still have the grainy feel after 1 coat of Seche Vite. At least 2 coats of top coat is needed for smooth and shiny look.
I was lucky to be able to catch the sun while I have this polish on, or I will usually take indoor artificial light photos. :)
Last but not least, the sparkly holo glitters!
My verdict for this polish is - It gorgeous, it's BABY PINK and it sparkles. Definitely must have! :)
