Pink Wednesday: Nabi - Cinnamon

I have been obsessed with the color rose gold lately and you can see why, right - isn't it just delicious?


Color Description: Nabi Cinnamon is a copper metallic lacquer that goes very well with my rose gold jewelry below.  Definitely in the same family as rose gold.


Did You Know? Copper is the key metal in creating the rose gold color? A common alloy for rose gold is 75% gold and 25% copper by mass.


Similar To: Another rose gold/copper lacquer is Orly Rage.  However, Rage is a foil and not a metallic like Cinnamon but beautiful, nonetheless.


This Look: Two coats of Cinnamon and one coat of Sally Hansen NailShine Miracle.


Price Point/Availability: Nabi is found a local beauty supplies as well as online can cost as little as $1.00.


I so appreciate you stopping by! Do you own any rose gold jewelry? Whether it's fashion or fine, rose gold is a fun departure from the norm - yellow and white gold, wouldn't you say?

Pink Wednesday: OPI - I'd Like To Thank...

OPI I'd Like To Thank... is from the 2007 Holiday in Hollywood collection and "pink" definitely comes to mind when you put this on.  In the bottle it's a copper duo-chrome, though..


Color Description: I'd Like To Thank... is said to be a mauve-pink by OPI. I definitely agree with the pink but it reminds me of a brand new copper penny, leaning towards the dark rose gold with fine green and gold shimmer giving it a duochrome effect.



This Look: One coat of Starting Over After Artificials and two coats of I'd Like To Thanks... with no topcoat.  In my previous post you will find that I topped this with Pros & Bronze which made for a lovely pairing.

Do you have this one? What did you think of it?
