OPI- Tickle My France-y

I've worn OPI's Tickle my France-y a million times before and decided it was time to show it on my blog. I showed it here in two different kind of lights, it's really a combination of the both. Its a sheer nude-y pink that I love with my olive skin tone (and I've seen it on other bloggers with fair skin tones and it looks gorgeous on them also).  This is one of my favorite OPI's and actually one of my first, it's so sophisticated and I even wore it on most of my recent job interviews. SO CLASSY. haha... Who else is in love!?

Totally not as expected

I'm disappointed. The polish I used today was such a let down! Its First Blush by Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear.  It was SOOO not the color I expected it to be =(

Ok so I'm sure I should have expected this but the color was way too sheer.  This was three coats and you can still see the tips of my nails.  Aside from the color, the application was totally easy, but a little watery. The polish did not stay where I put it, making cleanup take super super long.  On a positive note the polish dried really quick (I even changed my pants right after I painted them and there was no smudging!).  Well, anyway the color is a middle ground between a white and a cream pink.  In my last post I had mentioned that I was on the prowl for a white/pink cream and although that is how I described this color...this is not what I had in mind.  I want something more like this...

See how much different?? Good thing I had this Sally from a few years ago and didn't buy it expecting a specific color. Expect another post in the next few days, I can't stand this color already.
