Reswatch: OPI Hong Kong collection polishes

I just got into polish last year when the OPI HK collection was out, so I've accumulated a few of these since then :) I re-swatched the older ones since those pics were pretty awful, hope you don't mind XD

OPI Pearl of Wisdom - This was a gift from a friend back at home and one of my first OPIs! It also looks terrific over light purple! 3 coats by itself.



Layered over black looks totally different! 2 coats over WnW Black Creme.




OPI Jade is the New Black - One of the first OPIs I purchased for myself, I forgot how lovely it was. 2 coats.



OPI Suzi Says Feng Shui - I bought this during my first in-person haul at a Harmons! :) My brush is kind of wonky (splays out a lot), so I had to cut a few strands of the brush! The new Zoya Breezi looks really similar to this, but I haven't seen any direct comparisons yet. 2 coats.



OPI Lucky Lucky Lavender - I was disappointed in this one, since it looks different on other people's skintone... but I have learned to like it now. I believe this was 3 coats, but it might have been 2.



OPI Panda-monium Pink - DBF desperately wanted me to get this as the "perfect" pink (there is no such thing with him!) so I used a coupon at a local pharmacy to get it. I guess I like it ok. 3 coats.

    Pearl of wisdom over black looks like Orlys Space Cadet purple sister to me!
    It's funny you got your first OPI at Harmon's I live right near one and nobody
    knows what it is!

    Haha, Harmons is only on the East coast, I think? Anyway, I'm glad you commented; I was looking for your blog last night after you posted spam on NB but couldn't find you! :)

    I'm so jealous of how good JITNB looks on you! I've put it on several times and it just looks... weird. And then I take it off and put it back in my melmer with a sigh. :(

    I really love the Hong Kong collection - it was out last summer when I re-ignited my NP love and so I've slowly been picking up the collection. I only have JITNB and SSFS of these though... also have Chop-Sticking To My Story, A Good Mandarin Is Hard To Find, and Meet Me On The Star Ferry... still majorly lemming Hot & Spicy, Bling Dynasty, Red My Fortune Cookie, and Dim Sum Plum!

    I just got Breezi in the mail yesterday, so maybe I'll try to do a little comparison post with SSFS? That is, if I ever get back to blogging... stupid work and life... *grumbles*
