#summernorules - FAV SUMMER RED

Today is RED in the #summernorules!!  I normally don't wear red, it is another tricky colour with my fair skin.  This is OPI's Red Hot Rio and it's from the 2014 Brazilian collection.  This cherry red, jelly like creme was easy to apply, with only 2 coats. I have been told that it is a dupe for OPI's Vodka & Caviar...which is very difficult to get your hands on, so I'm so happy I have this one.

OPI's Kiss Me I'm Brazilian

Kiss Me I'm Brazilian is part of the 2014 Brazilian collection.  It is a bright creme pink.  I had trouble with the formula on this one...it was so thick.  I used some polish thinner and it seemed to become more manageable.  I used 2 coats to achieve opacity.

Another beautiful creme polish from OPI!

OPI's Where Did Suzi's Man-go?

Where Did Suzi's Man-go is part of the 2014 Brazilian collection.  It is a light orange creme.  This has a fabulous formula and was opaque in 2 coats.  I usually stay away from anything orange, but this one was calling to me and surprisingly it doesn't look too bad.

This is a beauty!!

OPI's Red Hot Rio

I have a love/hate relationship with red nail polish.  I like red nail polish on other people but it usually washes me out and just doesn't do it for me.  Only 3% of my collection is red and I usually only pull it out around the holidays for nail art :-S

Anca over at darkntwistynails is the 'queen' of red, she has a wonderful collection of red polishes and they all look so fabulous on her:)  Anyway, she has inspired me to wear more red polish!

Here is Red Hot Rio from OPI's 2014 Spring/Summer Brazil collection.  It is a classic red creme, but somewhat jelly like.  It was relatively easy to work with, I applied 3 coats for full opacity.

My quest continues for some more red in my life.  Any recommendations for me??
