OPI~Touring America

OPI's Fall Collection is called Touring America.  It is a 12 piece collection of a wide array of shimmers and cremes ranging from corals to greys to very dark shades.  I found that most of this collection had a 'dustyness' to it.  This collection isn't my favorite and overall, I was pretty disappointed in Touring America.  I did pick up 3 of them and here they are.
 
Honk If You Love OPI is my favorite.  It is dusty vamp creme!  What a gorgeous shade of polish!

I Break For Manicures is a dusty eggplant creme.  I really loved this one in the bottle, but when I applied it, it was too dusty or grey for me.   

Get In The Espresso Lane is a dark brown creme that has just a slight hint of green to it. 

I still would like to pick up Road House Blues from this collection, but it seems to go fast around here.  I know this collection has been out a little while, do you like, love, or pass on OPI~Touring America?

China Glaze~Metro Collection

The Fall 2011 collections have been out since summer and I figured it was about time I get these up!  The Metro Collection by China Glaze is a 12 piece collection ranging from shimmers, to glitters, to cremes.  I have 3 of the polishes from this collection, two glitters and a to die for creme!

Skyscraper is a blueberry base with silver glitter.  In the bottle, this color pulls more purple, so I was a little surprised when I applied and it was blue.

Midtown Magic, how do I describe this one?  Bare with me-It is a brown/burgundy base with gold, brown, & I think I see green micro glitter.  I can't tell if this has a duo chrome to it or if it has a slight holographic to it.  It is a really cool and trippy color.  And it is gorgeous! 

Concrete Catwalk is they grey creme I have been searching for!  It's more of a blue-ish grey, but I just love it!

What do you all think about this collection?  Is it a hit or a miss?

Orly Mineral FX 2011

Orly is making its move rather swiftly up my favorite polish brands list.  Last year their FX Collection had polish lovers searching all over town for the much loved Space Cadet and Galaxy Girl.  This Fall's FX collection is just a beautiful and sparkly!  I found a display at Sally's the other day and picked up 2 of the 6.  I read somewhere that November was the launch month, so I don't know why they were out or if your Sally's will have them yet.  But it is worth a phone call or a quick trip in to see-they will sell out fast.

Emberstone is a bright orange with orange and gold sparkle and I mean sparkle!

Rock Solid is my favorite of these two.  It is a gunmetal grey glitter with little iridescent sparkles scattered through out.  This is amazing!

This picture does not do it justice.  There is much more sparkle with the real eye.  The bottle is more accurate of what you will see on your nails.

Have these beauties made their way into you Sally's yet?
