I Have A Herring Problem

This is one of the newest polishes that I bought. It's actually from the last haul that I just posted. First, I didn't want to do a swatch because I feel like there are so many swatches. Then again, when aren't many swatches? So here it is! OPI I Have A Herring Problem.



I tried to get as close as it could to be accurate. But can I just say, THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! I was sort of debating if I should buy this or not because it looked like just a pale blue with tiny micro silver shimmer. But when I swatched it on my nails, it's definitely a true gem. I Have  A Herring Problem is from OPI's Holland collection for Spring 2012. It's a dusty blue-ish grey with very finely milled micro silver, gold, blue shimmers. The finish almost seems like a glass fleck than shimmer. Regardless, this is such a beautiful color! I really hope you are able to see the different colors in the shimmer. Because when I was able to see it, it completely changed my mind. I am so glad that I purchased this!

This was applied with 2 coats. With one coat it was a little sheer. Two coats was semi-opaque but good enough for me. The formula was as smooth as butter and applied easily. It dried fairly quick. I am super impressed with this. So what do you think?

I just wanted to share this too. While I do my nails and I am blogging, this is what he does:

He has his own little desk.

So are you planning to pick this up or any other polishes from the Holland collection?
