OPI- Russian Navy was one of the many nail polishes that I got for
Christmas (I know, I'm such a teenager at heart)! It was highly
anticipated. It is definitely sophisticated. I guess I was just
expecting something different. It was much darker than was shown from
swatches online. I'm starting to learn a major rule of thumb when it
comes to nail polish colors: The ACTUAL shade of the polish is almost
always 1-2 shades darker than it looks in the bottle!
Anyway..
the formula was good, on the thick side. When it tried, the texture
reminded me of a Jolly Rancher if that makes any sense at all. A 1
coater for sure. I planned to use 2 coats, but used 3 due to bubbling
issues. The pictures below show 3 coats+ 1 coat of seche vite.

As you can see, it's basically 2 shades in 1. A beauty with lots of depth.
