NOPI: Roughles swatches

My 3 year blogiversary is live, HERE to enter!
Remember the Nicole by OPI Roughles or Ruffles textured collection? I have it for you today and it's awesome. 
onto the individual swatches and review...

 A minty green with blue speckles in it, 2 coats 
 A spring time pink with red speckles in it, 2 coats (reminds me of a strawberry shake!)
 A blurple periwinkle with blue specks, 2 coats
A golden pastel yellow with red specks, 2 coats

So these are different from any textured polishes I have seen- they are finer grit and have specks throughout them. They are perfect for spring because they all look like Easter candy or eggs, I love them! As with most textured polishes, they have a longer dry time but it's not horrible and two coats is totally fine. The speckles in this collection draw attention and give the normal look of texture more interest. I hope NOPI keeps this idea and makes a line out of it, not just a collection! 
I tried a striped tape mani and it looked better in my head. Also, my tape was not sticking to the texture, but it's still fun and was a good experiment. 

Nicole by OPI formulas are long-lasting, fast-drying, and salon-quality.  The 4 new nail lacquers will be available in stores beginning March 2014 for $7.99 each at retailers including select Duane Reade, Kroger, Kmart, Fred Meyer, CVS locations. In Canada, these shades will be available for $10.99 each at Shoppers Drug Mart, Jean Coutu, Rexall, Walmart Canada, Jean Coutu, Loblaw, and London Drug.
