As-Salam-O-Alykum...Glam'Yees...
So, as Eid preparations are in full swing,I shared my favorite matte lipsticks for EID( here), and then I shared my favorite creme Lipsticks for EID(check here).But what about nail paints... a perfect combo of lipstick & Nail Paint, add in some more bling to all the dress up. So,these are my favorite nail paint picks for this Eid Ul Fitr. I have kept in mind its festival time in summer time,so you will get to see some brights,neutrals,sparkles and pop of color.. All shades selected are from O.P.I ,its one of my most favorite nail paint. Two simple reasons they got tremendous range of shades and once applied it lasts on and on...just what I like for a product to perform.So, let us begin...
BRIGHTS
This category is for those who love to adorn bold shades.
BIG RED APPLE
BIG RED APPLE
During Eid Red is my most staple color,if I don't get time to match I just apply a Red nail paint and Im done.OPI Big Apple Red ,It's one of OPI's most popular red polishes. It's bright and vivid, has an excellent formula too. This is what they call a "true" red, it's not orangey or pinkish or blue-toned.It's bright and vivid, has an excellent formula too.
EURO
Fashionistas, this one is for you guys.Beautiful deep royal blue cream that's very clean and vivid.Very bright electric blue but with a hint of violet. It's not navy at all as it may look in the bottle, it's more of a sea glass blue, or even cobalt. The formula is creme and it's really really pretty.
There's no glitter or shimmer but this polish dries to a super-shiny finish. It is gorgeous and a must-have blue.

NEUTRAL
This category is for those who don't like to experiment much,and just want a simple polished look.
CANBERRAT WITHOUT YOU
It's a nude beige color that is perfect as a subtle color and very elegant . This is probably my favorite nail polish ever. A universal color and works well in the summer and the winter and any time in between. The formula is not streaky (OPI is always reliable) I love this color on long nails as well as shorter nail. It has a beautiful shine.
DULCE DE LECHE
DULCE DE LECHE
A beautiful, classic, dusty-rose pink. Dulce de Leche is a pinkish flesh-tone color. Works almost like a neutral beigey-pink with a simple, glossy finish. basically no shimmer or glitter.It's perfect for those who like to have well-manicured nails but don't fancy anything too dramatic. Being so neutral this color will go with just about anything you wear and not draw attention to your nails when they inevitably chip over time. It's very simple, elegant, feminine and versatile. You can't go wrong when you're wearing this.
POP OF COLOR
This category for those who love color and who love summer colors even more. Young/Teenage girls, you can find these interesting as well.
CANT FIND MY CZECHBOOK
This creme polish is gorgeous! Gorgeous turquoise creme! Way more blue than green though. with no shimmer or glitter. This color has so much brightness and "pop", one of those shades that makes you keep looking at your nails.
SORRY I'M FIZZY TODAY
This is a pastel shade of pink polish with a creme base, but it has a strong white undertone to it which makes the light pink shade appear brighter then it really is. This is a great choice for spring and summer.
SHIMMERS & GLITTERS
This Category is for those who love to wear shimmers and glitters all the way and love sparkles over colors.
GLITZERLAND
Glitzerland is my most used nail polish! Its a beautiful metallic champagne gold with a foil finish... And the gold is just beautiful, a nice soft muted gold... If you want something a bit more out there you night want to try bring on the bling.
MY VOICE IS A LITTLE NORSE
My Voice is a Little Norse is a holographic micro-glitter suspended in a grayish jelly base .The composition is truly eye-catching. the rainbow-holo effect is very prominent. It looks much darker in the bottle than it does on the nail. When it dries it looks light grey, texture-y, matte-ish, but extremely sparkly at the same time. Especially in the sunlight You can either wear it as a top coat with a combination of another shade,just to add a little bit of sparkle, or you can even wear it as a nail paint itself, with added coats it gets more opaque.How Festival seasons can be complete without some sparkles.
ONE SHADE for ALL - MARSALA
If you can decide any from the above then buy this one, as Marsala is the color of the year.So, I have picked up a lighter version of Marsala, it looks Gorgeous over all skin tones and its perfect for summer.
GOUDA GOUDA - TWO SHOES
As to the actual shade, I'd call Gouda Gouda a "warm antique rose", or a "dusty pink'd terracotta". In the bottle the polish looks like a neutral dusty pink that leans towards orange with a subtle gold micro shimmer, but on the nail the shade leans over a milky shade from the Marsala family.The micro shimmer is really only noticeable under direct sunlight, which is what I would prefer with this color. I like that it is subtle and leans more towards a rich creamy look.
