OPI Euro Centrale Eurso Euro

Good morning!!  Eurso Euro's one of those colors that I wasn't wowed by at first but it stuck itself in my head, and at some point I knew I'd have to have it.  Now that it's mine, I can honestly say that I have not been as smitten with a blue polish as I am with this one.



 I love it.  This is what pure, high-octane gorgeous looks like.  I've worn some really pretty blues in the past, but have always had my mind on what I was going to paint my nails with next.  Not so with Eurso Euro.  I'm into my second day of wearing it and I have no plans to switch it out... not for at least a couple more days. ;)  Is it unique?  It is to my collection.  Revlon Royal comes close, but that one's pure jelly, a little brighter, and not quite the stand alone stunner Eurso Euro is.  It's a very dark, not quite blurple creme that comes across as a little stark, but still drop dead elegant.  The formula's thick and there's always way too much color on the brush, but with a little patience and a lot of control, this polish is glossy perfection in two coats.

Naturally, I had to Oyify it.


 OY- Another Polish Joke is the most awesomely transformative yellow gold topper, and it works perfectly with the lights and brights in Euro Centrale.  Another reason I picked up Eurso Euro was to see how Oy looks over one of this collection's dark colors.  I initially put one coat over one full hand, but I wasn't in love with it.  It looked a little over the top, like the gold was hiding the brilliance of the creme.  It was disjointed and not very pretty.  But used as an accent, it's kind of amazing.  Some of the blue needs to be left alone to sort of tie the whole thing together.  I cannot tell you how much I love this mani.


The bangles were given to me by a coworker friend from a recent trip to India.  I like how they give the mani a more exotic look and feel.

So, have you picked up any from Euro Centrale yet?  I have a sneaking suspicion at least one more from this collection is in my future.
Have an awesome day and thank you for reading! ♥

    I bought Oy, Euro Eurso, Suzi's Hungary again, Can't find my czechbook and You're such a Budapest. I'm still in doubt about Polka.com.......
