Brazil by OPI Swatches, Part 1: The Brights!

Press Sample

Good morning, readers! I have another post on the Brazil by OPI Collection today! Yesterday's post was on the box set of mini Liquid Sand Polishes: Beach Sandies. Make sure you check that out if you haven't already. The rest of the Brazil by OPI Collection consists of 12 polishes, mostly cremes, and it was easy to split them into two halves: the brights and the earth tones. Today's post is on the 6 bright cremes! I am loving them!

These colors are so bright and fun, I can't wait to do some nail art with them! Many of them required three coats for full and even coverage, but the colors are so gorgeous that I was okay with doing them.

OPI I Just Can't Cope-acabana: Nothing lifts your spirits like this sunshine yellow.

Three coats with no top coat.

OPI Where Did Suzi's Man-go? He went to fetch her this delicious mango smoothie.

Three coats with no top coat.

OPI Toucan Do It If You Try: You have talent to achieve anything in this confident orange.

Three coats with no top coat.

OPI Live.Love.Carnaval: This vibrant and festive coral is the life of the party.

Two coats with no top coat.

OPI Kiss Me I'm Brazilian: Plant this warm luscious pink on me.

Two coats with no top coat. 

OPI Red Hot Rio: A ruby red as hot as the most exciting city in Brazil.

Three coats with no top coat. Unlike the others that needed three coats for even coverage, this one is thin but covers evenly. It was just sheer so I used three coats to build it up for these photos.

And because you know I like to compare similar colors in a collection together, here is a comparison:

Tell me your thoughts on this half of Brazil by OPI! Which are your favorites? I love the corals, Live.Love.Carnaval and Toucan Do It If You Try the most, and am really digging Where Did Suzi's Man-go?. Yes, it can be frustrating to need three coats for even coverage but the colors are worth it to me. Thanks so much for reading and don't forget to check back for part 2 this weekend!
