Best Holiday Polish!!! Sephora by OPI Merry Me!

Sephora by OPI Merry Me!, three coats, no flash

I know it's more than a month away, but I already know what polish I'll be applying on Christmas Eve. Red, super sparkly, two different colors of glitter... it is really the perfect holiday polish.

I'm talking about the limited edition Sephora by OPI Merry Me!. This red jelly base is absolutely packed with both red and silver glitter. The red base does have a lot of pink in it, but it seems like the kind of red that will flatter a lot of people. After two coats, the pink becomes less noticeable. I did three coats for these pictures and the result was a gorgeous glitzy finish that I LOVE. The jelly base allows the glitter to really show through.

My pictures don't even show how sparkly this is in person. A shiny top coat brings out all of the sparkle, but I also think it looks fantastic matte (see below). I am definitely going to wear it the full-on shiny version on Christmas though.

For such a glittery polish, the removal process was super easy. I didn't even use Zoya Remove+, just regular polish remover! I think it might be because the glitter is pretty fine. The larger pieces of glitter always seem harder to remove.

Sephora by OPI polishes are available at a Sephora near you, or online at Sephora.com.
