Here are the swatches for the newest colors exclusive to CVS drugstore. Nicole by OPI likes to describe them as the "new neutrals". :)
NOPI "I Sea You And Raise You"
2 coats, no top coat
Finally someone else believes that blue is the perfect neutral, besides me, LOL :) I literally fell in love with this shade and I wore it a couple days after swatching it and loved it even more. I know you may have something in your stash that is close, but come on it's a blue!!! This is a such a great ocean blue creme, it reminds me of Caribbean waters...Aahhhh take me back to Bali! :)
NOPI "Always A Silver Lining"
3 coats, no top coat
In indirect light...
This is a very pretty silver shimmer, not too flat and not too "foil like"...it's just right. :) I did have some issues with bald spots and dragging at 2 coats, so I had to wait a minute before applying the 3rd and final coat. This is very pretty, I can see myself wearing this again.
NOPI "Don't Overpink It"
3 coats, no top coat
Nothing new about pink being neutral, but you can't deny that it does deliver that "pop"of girly glamour that some gals need to perk up their tips :) I had some "bald spot" issues at 2 coats, but a 3rd coat made it all better :)
NOPI "Feeling Grapeful"
2 coats, no top coat
This is so pretty in person. Creamy, bright and smooth. True, the color is not the most unique, but you definitely need a color like this in your stash. :)
NOPI "A Pinker Shade Of Pale"
2 coats, no top coat
This is a truly romantic neutral pale pink. Very frosty and easy to wear, but still this shade doesn't "wow" me...does it "wow" you? :)
NOPI "Personally Speaking..."
2 coats, no top coat
This is a neutral rose pink. The shimmer in this is very complimentary to the skin, and the brush strokes are minimal, and the colors is just plain feminine and pretty! Very wearable! :)
NOPI "Marooned In Paradise"
3 coats, no top coat
This is a very pretty darkened berry shimmer. I did have some "bald spot" issues at 2 coats, so a 3rd coat was necessary to take care of those.
Overall the collection is a nice reminder of how we can take the term "neutral" to another level. I did have application issues with some, but the formula and shades were nice. Overall most of the colors are nothing new, but if I were you I would grab "Personally Speaking..." and "Always A Silver Lining", these are necessary.
So, say "bye bye" to boring mauves and tans, and "so long" to taupe's...and say "HELLO" to blues, silvers and rosy pinks :)
