Hey guys! Today's polish is Nicole by OPI Poised in Turquoise. I don't own very many NOPI as personally I don't really care for the bottle, but the polish inside looked so pretty and it was only $3.00 at Dollarama, so I couldn't pass it up.

This is four thin coats of Poised in Turquoise with one coat of Seche Vite. When I first started getting into polish, I didn't have patience for anything that was more than two coats really. I've since come to learn that sometimes for a polish I may need three or four. The formula on this is very thin, and I found even after waiting a few minutes between coats that it tended to drag at the cuticle a bit. It's so darn pretty though that the four coats were worth it.

While it isn't a duochrome, in some lights it leans more green, and in others more blue. In low lighting, the shine/flash that appears on the nails is an emerald green. Unfortunately I couldn't properly capture this in photos. It did stain the sides of my nails a little bit upon removal, so you might want to double up on basecoat.
Since this was at Dollarama, I'm not sure if it's still available in stores, but I'm glad I didn't ignore it just because of the bottle shape. Are you a NOPI fan?
