OPI: Are We There Yet? (Touring America Collection, 2011)
I'm
not completely sold on the shade of this colour. I was looking for a
peachy colour with a pink undertone, and this is more of a coral with an
orange undertone. It is very pretty under certain lights (like the shop
lighting where I bought it), but under other lights it just looks a bit
'dirty salmon' to me. Looks a little lighter in the bottle than on my
nails too. The formula however is lovely. Not too thick or runny and has
a smooth application. Needs 2 coats for full opacity. I'd recommend
wearing this colour for spring, it's not quite rich enough for me to
consider it an autumn colour.

This colour is so juicy, perfect for Summer. It's a really rich orange with just the slightest hint of a red undertone. Has a fairly even application and you can get away with 2 coats, although I'd recommend 3. Beware though: REMEMBER TO PUT ON YOUR PROTECTIVE BASE COAT! For some reason I forgot to do a base coat (I was clearly delirious) and 2 days later my nails were stained bright orange. Not a good look, unless you're a carrot...
