Afternoon lovelies,
Every year 47,700 women and 300 men are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK. Scarily the number of women under the age of 30 being diagnosed with it is on the increase.
So every year, beauty companies across the world join together to help raise awareness for Breast Cancer awareness during October. This year OPI have joined with www.coppafeel.org to produce a limited edition set to help raise money.
For 2012 OPI brought out a set called Pink of Hearts, containing two suitably pink nail polishes.
Adorned with a pink ribbon printed top, You Glitter be Good to Me and I think in Pink are the perfect combination for a duo set.
I Think in Pink - This is a real baby pink polish, which gives a sheer was of colour with one coat. As im not a fan of sheer, I built this up, and I was pleased that it took 3 coats to achieve nearly full opacity. It dried to a glossy, jelly like finish that lasted well over 4 days before tip wear became too much.
You Glitter be Good to Me - Made up of tiny silvery/pink glitter pieces, and magenta hexagonal glitter, this is a gorgeously girly polish that drew so many compliments. One coat added an even spread of glitter, there was no dabbing to get the bits to stick and 2 coats was fully opaque over a coat of I think in Pink.
You can still pick this up from Lena White for £22.00 with £2 going to Coppafeel. I would have liked more to go to charity but maybe another year.
Have you picked up any thing to help raise money? What do you think of these pink polishes?
I love the look of the varnishes and the fact that money goes to charity is never a bad thing, I agree it could have been more though x
