OPI - DS Vintage

This is one of my new holographic DSs from OPI. This is from the original Designer Series release. I'm not sure when they came out or how many polishes there where in the collection. Very hard to find info about on the internet, so if any of you guys can give me some more info on the DS series please scream out!
Soo... How to describe Vintage? Some people call it a holo peach, some say it's cobber and some say coral. I'll just let the pictures do most of the talking here 'cus words come out cheap!

Wow, wow, wow is all I can say! Not only is the polish itself beautiful, the formula is great! Two coats went on perfect with Makeupstore Aqua fix as a base. It was maybe a little runny, but no real problems.
I think I'll call the color somewhere between pink and peach. The pictures in artificial light show it a little more pink than it actually is, but I needed them to show the great holo in it!

This is an old OPI so the brush is a little different. I'll have a comparison picture in the next post on the DSs. See my swatch of DS - Magic Here.

OPI DS - Magic (week one - make it sparkle)

This is my first DS polish from OPI. The OPI Designer Series is a range of polishes with a special shine to them. The first ones where holographic, but for some reason the new ones aren't. That's quite sad actually. Oh well, even though this one isn't a holo it's still very nice!
I'll let the pictures do most of the talking here:

Ooh, it's so lovely! I'm really glad I got it, and I'll make sure to get my hands on some of the other DSs. They don't stay in stock for a very long time so I'll recommend buying them if you happen to see one in a store!
Magic is the kind of polish that makes you sit and stare at your nails all the time, hihi.
Here's another closeup, just because I love it!
