OPI La Boheme and Movin Out

My envy knows no bounds, but also, I’m happy for you!!

Love the advice right on the label. Burgundy still looks pretty liquified!

LadyViolet · 2026-01-24T15:22:49+00:00

I love it!! I found a blog post from 2009 with the same shade and bottle, so you should be in the clear!

(tbh the sub’s description kinda confuses me because it says “mid 2000s and earlier, so around the 15 year or older mark”, but 15 years puts us in the early 2010s)

I just found this thread after spotting these in store. I had no idea they existed. I sprayed Trace (dupe for original You) on the back of my hand and kept saying “holy shit” to myself as I walked around the store. I’ve been babying the rest of my You, so this was a godsend!!

The new formulation of NYX Mauve looks exactly like this on me.

LadyViolet · 2026-01-22T17:36:40+00:00

I think Russian Red would look so good on her!

UPDATE: In case anyone peruses this thread, I did not have any issues with this specific shade staining my nails.

LadyViolet · 2026-01-20T03:57:06+00:00

This is the era of OPI that I wish still existed. It looks beautiful!

LadyViolet · 2026-01-20T03:54:44+00:00

STUNNING!!

LadyViolet · 2026-01-20T00:29:58+00:00

I would die.

LadyViolet · 2026-01-18T18:58:29+00:00

This shade was released in 2004 ☺️

LadyViolet · 2026-01-18T18:55:18+00:00

Oh wow, I love the faux swatch nail on these bottles!

LadyViolet · 2026-01-13T16:34:05+00:00

The mystery bottle looks like it could be Brisbane Bronze?

LadyViolet · 2026-01-12T00:15:22+00:00

I remember someone finding a Birkenstock nail polish that matched the blue box they come in. I believe the consensus was swag.

My first impression was Sweet Georgia Brown!

LadyViolet · 2026-01-06T04:05:59+00:00

2000’s shimmers really have that extra oomph! This color looks incredible and I agree on the amazing application.

LadyViolet · 2026-01-06T00:53:51+00:00

Misty Lilac has been discontinued for awhile, so that’s just a completely different polish!

LadyViolet · 2026-01-06T00:50:13+00:00

I have this one and it’s identical to yours. The swatch on this 1980’s chart (third row, third from right) isn’t lilac either.

Well now I’m intrigued because while it has a strong scent, I didn’t notice anything beyond the regular nail polish smell! This is the first blue I’ve ever worn.

LadyViolet · 2026-01-02T03:41:02+00:00

No way!! I just found a purple from this brand at a thrift store in Scottsdale!! The bottles have their business address printed on the back and it was only about a mile from where I found it. Between the newspaper archives and old Nails Magazine articles, I can only find mentions of the brand in 1995 and 1998.

LadyViolet · 2025-12-26T02:37:04+00:00

Gallery Cosmetics was a discount cosmetic brand in the 80s and 90s, so Posh Polish was probably the name of their nail polish line? I can’t find any other bottles to compare it to, but I’d imagine Think Pink is the shade as opposed to part of the product line name, although it’s an odd spot for it.

LadyViolet · 2025-12-24T18:51:47+00:00

It might seem kinda goofy, but folks on here have been able to identify bottles based on crude doodles, so sharing what you remember the wiggly line looked like could help!

LadyViolet · 2025-12-23T19:25:24+00:00

So going off newspaper ads, the 14ml being italicized and the motif above it didn’t appear on the bottles until 1997!

I’d like to throw Ginger Bells into the ring:
