Hey dolls, today I have another Barielle beauty for you. Green Opal is an olive metallic with hints of golden shimmer. This was one of the shades from the Gem Stone Earth collection that I wasn’t really sure about based on the picture on the website. It is gorgeous in person though! Although it is a metallic, I didn’t have too many issues with brushstrokes. I was rushing when I used Green Opal so I skipped the base coat, hence the bumps on a few nails (Note to self, do not skip base coat ever!) I didn’t use top coat either and Green Opal dried extremely fast. The formula was relatively thin, but well pigmented and I applied two coats in the pictures below.

I really like Green Opal. Olive polishes can sometimes look too drab in the warmer months, but Green Opal has just enough shimmer for this to be a seasonal shade.
