Essie - Matte About You

Hi ladies,

Today I have for you OPI La Paz-itively Hot Mattified with Essie Matte About You. Please keep in mind that this is not the matte version of OPI La Paz-itively Hot, that is slightly different.

This was my first time, besides swatching, using Essie's Matte about you. I don't own any other Essie's except for a nude, sheer colour my mom gave me recently (she gave all her old polish to me). Anyways ...

The matte top coat applied smoothly and dried fast. I really like the look and feel of it. Its not toooo over the top but its not too less (if that makes sense!) Expect to see another matte look ... but with a twist soon :)

What you you think now that you have seen both matte and shiny, which do you prefer better?

Have a great weekend :)

La Paz-itively Hot

Hi Ladies :)

I have a quick post for you today. I had requested OPI's La Paz-itively Hot - Matte for my birthday. My wonderful brother and sister took my long list of polishes to a beauty supply and purchased all the ones they could find :)

Unfortunately, the lady helping them supplied them with the regular polish, NOT the matte! I was kind of disappointed, I really wanted the matte and I have sooooo many regular pinks! I finally decided last night that I wanted to wear it with a matte top coat, but once I had it on I actually really liked it :)

Its a nice hot pink without being neon that changes to magenta or a pink/purple in different lighting, in direct sunlight there is a subtle blue shimmer. This is very pretty, I'm thinking either tonight or tomorrow I will add Essie's Matte About You, I just want to enjoy the shimery goodness a little while longer :)

Which shade do you prefer, matte or original?

I will post the matted version of this shade tomorrow
