Mystery OPIs

Hi all! How's 2012 going so far? I'm off to a great start! Lots of you heard on twitter that this lady was getting rid of her old OPIs from her salon... So, of course, I scooped it up even though it was a blind deal (I had no idea what any of them were, although she assured me there would not be many, if any, duplicates). Here's what I got:


Not too shabby, right?! Over the next couple days, I'll be showing you all this haul up close. For today, I have the bottles that were unlabeled. I'm hoping some of you guys might know the names of these, perhaps you can help me out! There are about ten, so here's the nail wheel and the individual swatches and bottle shots will be after the jump!

The polishes in question, all at 2 coats


One: a white creme, not Alpine Snow though:


 Two: a sheerer white:

Three: a silver/gray with a duochrome-like effect:


Four: a bronzey pink with glitter, reminiscent of Warm and Fozzie but lighter and glitterier:


Five: a deep red-brown creme:


Six: a red-pink creme with slight shimmer:


Seven: a pinkish red creme. Reminds me of Koala Bear-y except it's more red-leaning:


Eight: a really pretty red-gold duochrome:


Nine: A deep blue with what seems like violet shimmer, or possible duochrome effect:


 And finally, my favorite: ten: a purple with blue microglitter. Reminds me of Jesse's Girl Confetti:


Any guesses?

xoxo,
Amanda

Number five, maybe Mrs. O'Leary's BBQ? How about Glacier Bay Blues for number 9...I can't tell for sure but it looks a bit like that! http://www.nightlynails.com/2011/09/focus-on-duochrome-opi-glacier-bay.html
Sorry I'm not more help, those are the only two that look familiar!

I have no idea what any of these are but I'm still just so freaking excited for you. It's not normal. :-p

Nice stash hon!! Sorry I have no answers :(

I was thinking Glacier Bay Blues for number 9 too. There is some green in that polish too at extreme angles. It should also have a narrow brush and be a bit stinky as its pre 3 free formula. The duochrone shift comes out best indoors under artificial light.

Hi, My suggestion for No10 is Grape Set Match from Serena williams collection.

It does look like that! These are all 2008 or earlier though... makes me think OPI is recycling ideas!

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

No problem, thanks!

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

Glacier Bay Blues is right! I actually received a labeled blue bottle too, and when I compared them they're exact - thanks!

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

Hahaha it's our Amanda mind connection

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

Thanks, I really lucked out!

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

Thanks! I'm hoping to have the rest up soon!
