Swatch Saturday: OPI Nordic Collection!

Press Sample

Good morning! I have a HUGE swatch post for you today, the new OPI Nordic Collection is 12 shades inspired by the diverse colors of it's namesake region. There are dark purples, browns, and even some brighter cremes thrown in there! With a collection this big, there's sure to be something for everyone.

Let's jump right in!

OPI Can't aFjörd Not To
Whatever it takes, get your hands on this extravagantly creamy coral!
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat. Love this color!



OPI Do You Have This Color In Stock-holm?
Stock up! This icy blue-violet is in hot demand!
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat. NOTE: this color is much more purple than my photos show. I tried and tried to color correct but I couldn't get it to look right. It's a blurple but leans more purple than these photos.



OPI My Dogsled Is A Hybrid
Enliven your environment by wearing this creamy sea green. 
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat.
I love this color, it didn't perfectly self level like I would have hoped, but nothing that top coat wouldn't smooth out.



OPI Going My Way or Norway?
No two ways about it...this caramel is delicious!
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat.



OPI Ice-Bergers & Fries
"Wood" you like a chocolate shake with that?
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat.



OPI How Great Is Your Dane?
Pass up this cinnamon coffee? You're barking up the wrong tree!
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat.



OPI My Voice Is A Little Norse
This prismatic super-shimmer is worth shouting about.
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat.
It can be worn as a topper or built up on it's own. Slightly textured when dry without top coat because its just glitter.



OPI Suzi Has A Swede Tooth
That's why I always have this strawberry candy pink on hand!
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat. Love this pink!



OPI Skating On Thin Ice-Land
Watch out! This black cherry is dangerously close to gorgeous!
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat. You may need three, depending on the thickness of coats because I see a few lighter spots in my photos.



OPI Thank Glogg It's Friday!
The start of the weekend is nothing to "wine" about!
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat. Love the added shimmer.



OPI Viking In A Vinter Vonderland
You can conquer anything in this powerful, deep purple.
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat. You may want a third coat if there are lighter spots showing. How funny is this name!?



(OPI) OPI With A Nice Finn-ish
This light, mellowed bronze completes me. The end.
I'm showing two coats below with no top coat.
Slight brushstokes, very similar finish to 50 Years Of Style from the Mustang Collection, just a bronze instead of gold. Same shimmering bits as well.


Thank you if you made it this far! What do you think of this collection? Which are your favorites? I am loving the brighter cremes, but the browns are calling my name as well!

  4. I've always been a sucker for dark shades like Viking in a Vinter Vonderland and How Great is Your Dane. Thank Glogg it's Friday, Ice-Bergers and Fries, and Skating on Thin Ice-land also speak to me. I may have to have some of these shades. Thanks for the swatches!
