I have the prettiest, and most easy-to-wear nail color for you today. I purchased five shades from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics at The Makeup Show Chicago recently. One of the five is Kava Kava, described as a “creme beige neutral, semi-opaque shimmer”. To me, it looks just like a beautiful seashell! So gorgeous, goes with everything and really enhances your tan in the Summer.
This is 3 coats and I probably should have started with a base coat since you can see my nail underneath. Ah well, I still love it! It had very good dry time and no issues with the consistency of the polish.
Now, because I like to share my joys, I also must share my pain sometimes. Please take a look at what is left of Kava Kava:
Can you believe right after taking a group photo of the OCC nail colors, I dropped this one on my kitchen floor and it broke? Ugh! I was SO MAD at myself for this. Now I only have about one-third left and a broken bottle. I have it sealed in a Ziploc bag but I’m not too sure how long it will last.
You can purchase OCC Nail Lacquer online for $8.00 each.
Have you tried OCC Nail Lacquer yet? Do you have any “seashell” colors in your collection that I should know about?
I’ve never tried OCC nail products..actually I’ve never heard of it! Checked out your post on the make-up show! Ummm when will we see the Deborah Lippmann colours?? Seriously salivating over them!
Hmmm, I don’t have any Deborah Lippmans, do you mean the group photo of the OCCs? Thanks for stopping by, I’ll be showing more OCC colors soon

That is a nice seashell colored polish. Kava Kava do they refer to the drink I wonder?

You had me googling Kava Kava! I found all sorts of interesting facts and did see one drink that had that milky color. I learned Kava Kava also means intoxicating in Latinized Greek

I’ve never tried any nail polishes from OCC. Love the color…I don’t believe I have anything like it. Sorry about your broken bottle! x
