day two hundred and thirteen, opi malaga wine

ignore the colouring in the first photo, the last four are accurate (i had to turn off all the settings to make it appear as it really is!). this is kind of a short description post because i'm trying to stick to the 'if you have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all' rule. malaga wine is a dark red wine colour from the espana collection. i will say the main reason i own this polish is because i have actually been to malaga and had a ridiculously amazing time. however, this polish has nothing to do with malaga outside of name reference! it is a really recent colour and i think that is why i'm so unhappy with it. this is not OPI reinventing the wheel...this is OPI putting out a standard wine colour and calling it brand new. that kind of irks me. i know that they're a big brand and are not known for taking risks and blah blah...but this is BORING! how many wine colours are out there in the OPI core collection!? LOTS!

so. meh. even my friend (who doesn't even wear nail polish) said that this was a really boring colour in contrast to the colours i typically wear! so it's not just me! this polish could've been something really cool. instead...it's average. it's nothing special and you can find this same colour in a drugstore brand for a cheaper price.

This is pretty. I can't believe I didn't get this one.

aww bummer you did not like it. I keep my oldest bottle of this from over 10 years ago safe tucked in a back drawer but it makes me want to put it on again! It does look pretty on you though :)
