Hi everyone! Today I have an oldie but a goodie. I bought a bottle of
OPI DS Original way early in my nail polish days, back when there were way fewer nail polish brands and I would pick up np wherever I would find it. I have no idea where I got this but clearly I had good taste even back then. DS Original is a gorgeous medium purple with insane holo effects. Had I known then what I knew now, I would have gotten a backup of this as well as all the other DS holos.

| gah - look at this holo awesomeoness |
Formula on this was a little watery but nothing I couldn't handle. I did 3 thin coats to get the level of color I wanted. You might be able to do 2 but I liked the look of 3 better. I didn't use a top coat on this though I am sure you could have. Since it's the old OPI formula, it did have a very strong chemical scent. I have forgotten what those old polishes smell like and it was pretty strong when I first cracked it open.
I totally forgot to take a picture of this one in the shade. I think I was just too mesmerized by the rainbows. Even though I know there are lots of good holos being made today, I still covet the DS holos. This remains one of my all time faves and I love wearing it when I feel the need for something extra special.
Do you have a special polish that is dear to your heart?
