I was real excited to see the latest Bond movie Skyfall at Cinépolis with boyfriend. It was no doubt a first class experience, the luxury cinema even offered special Bond cocktails such as the classic Vesper, and couple modern drinks Honey Ryder and Miss Moneypenny. The movie was brilliant, and Daniel Craig is by far my most favored Bond ever! The Bond girl Séverine played by French actress Bérénice Marlohe definitely caught my attention as well, there was something different about her, maybe her mysteriousness and complexity...
Celebrating 50th anniversary of the iconic British Spy James Bond, and the release of Skyfall, OPI has created a Bond themed nail polish collection, with colors named after some of the stand-out films such as The World is not Enough, Goldeneye, The Spy who Loved me, and etc. Amongst all, the supremely decadent 18k Gold Leaf top coat, The Man with the Golden Gun!
I really wanted to recreate the Séverine look, with Skyfall, a deep maroon on top and a sparkly gold on the undersides.
Two coat of Skyfall, very smooth application, beautiful job OPI!
For the gold effect on the undersides, I used ORLY Instant Artist in 24K Glitter instead. Since it is quite similar to Goldeneye by OPI, I didn't feel the need to purchase a new one.
It was a messy job painting the color on the underside, maybe because my nails are not as long as they need to be. But for ladies with longer nails, definitely try this design, very fun and very unique, great for the holiday season IMO!
See the complete Skyfall collection at OPI website. And remember to catch the Skyfall movie in theater this holiday season!
