OPI - Don't Speak

Hey guys,

So every Christmas lately OPI seems to be coming out with a 18k gold topcoat of some sort. Last year it was Mariah Carey's Pure. This year it was Gwen Stefani Don't Speak.
OPI has previously put out a yellow gold topcoat in Man with the Golden Gun which I don't have, so I can't compare the two. However my NPBFF did swatch it on her blog so go check that out here
Every Christmas (okay for the last two) my NBFF Melissa and I always agree to buy them for each other, because this makes more sense than buying it for ourselves right?
From what I see this is a much more dense gold flake. With a base gold shimmer.

What do you guys think of this one compared to MWTGG?
This is one coat over black.

OPI - Pure

Hey guys,

So I am a firm believer in people should have to take a drivers test to be allowed to use the internet. I forget that "common sense" isn't common. All I wanted for this weekend was a weekend with minimal human contact. Seems like a simple enough concept right? Well yesterday we got hit by a phone scam trying to gain access to our home computer, saying we'd been hacked. Of course my Mom who knows nothing about computers and is very trusting by nature gave these people remote access to our computer. Luckily I stepped in and hopefully cut them off at the pass and found the malware they had installed on our computer. However just to be safe I spent the night changing all my passwords and cancelling my credit card and then having to go get a new debit card this morning. What a headache.

So when OPI released a white gold version of Man with the Golden Gun (which I still want) I got together with my NPBFF Melissa and we decided that we would buy it for each other for Christmas. Our logic makes sense right?
So I wish these pictures had turned out better this was obviously pre-lightbox. I loved this, the gold/silver flake pay off was great. According to Melissa, way better than MWTGG.
