Been Awhile / Dove and O.P.I.

I have been meaning to get back to blogging but I've had a stressful/busy/illish month (almost) and have just been putting it off. It's crazy since i have been spending so much time looking at clothes so it doesn't make sense not to blog. I'm sorry to any reader who was just like "did she die?"
While I didn't die. I am actually very much alive. I am kicking butt writing thousands of words a day (2,500 a day) for an awesome thing ran by NaNoWriMo. I have been sleeping a lot and doing insane aljebra homework. And dealing with a personal issue in my family. So it's been insane and I have been trying to fit everything in. (I don't know any time management skills.)
Anyways I promise I am going to work blogging back into the schedule as much as I possibly can which will be a lot easier after April. But I do want to start off my great return with a nail polish review.
So my amazing mother has been entering contests lately and entered the Dove and O.P.I. nail polish and chocolate bar give away and WON. This is what it looks like:

I wasn't impressed by the packaging and the colors were really intimidating because I had never considered brown nails. I tried the color on the left called "Better After Dark." It looks like milk chocolate. This was my first experience with O.P.I. polish and I can see why it costs what it does. I am very impressed with the color and thickness. Two coats worked perfectly and it was a breeze to apply. The color to the right is "Promises in the Dark" and is a much darker brown. I was very happy with both shades.
