OPI~Muppets

Happy Friday the 13th!  I had all these huge plans for posting all of the great holiday/winter collections I have and December came and went too fast for me.  So, I know these are late, but they are definitely worth a second (or 50th) look and if you haven't picked any of these up yet, maybe I will inspire you :)

Also, don't forget to enter my Holo 2012 Giveaway!

OPI's holiday collection, The Muppets is an amazing collection of glitter, red, and neutral polishes.  The Muppets have a special place in my heart, not only because I grew up with them, but my youngest told me a couple of years ago, that he wanted to be Kermit when he grows up.

Rainbow Connection is a amazing display of multi-colored and multi-shaped glitter.

Divine Swine is a magenta glitter with silver hex scattered throughout.

Fresh Frog of Bel Air is a Kermit green glitter that also has a silver hex scattered throughout.

Gettin' Miss Piggy With It is a great red glitter and it too has the large silver hex.

Pepe's Purple Passion is a gorgeous plum base with glitter.

The next 4 are from the Muppettes, the mini 4 pack.

Designer...de Better is a light gold metallic with gold glitter.


Excuse Moi! is my favorite of this collection.  I actually went out a bought a few for full size bottles, just in case.  It is a pretty pink mauve glitter with larger pink, silver & light blue glitter.

Warm & Fozzie is a brown-copper metallic with gold & copper glitter.

Wocka! Wocka! is a pretty red with a pink iridescent wash.

OPI~Katy Perry Collection

OPI and Katy Perry teamed up to create a really great collection of four polishes and a shatter finish.  The shatter or crackle effect is all the rage right now and OPI's is wonderful.  This collection has sparkle, shimmer, and duochrome!  You can find these at your favorite OPI retailer.

The One That Got Away is a beautiful magenta base with magenta sparkles.

The One That Got Away with Black Shatter

Teenage Dream is a sweet sheer pink base full of tiny pink glitter and larger iridescent glitter.

Teenage Dream with Black Shatter.

Last Friday Night is a bright sheer blue base with tiny blue glitter and larger iredescent glitter.

Last Friday Night with Black Shatter.

Not Like the Movies is a silver shimmer base with a light purple/green duochrome.  I was hoping this color would be a little darker.  It's actually pretty sheer.  But it is pretty.

Not Like the Movies with Black Shatter.

Tha Black Shatter takes a nail or two to figure out, but once you get the hang of it, it's really pretty easy to use.  I do recommend a top coat.  If you want the mate look, try a thin coat of a regular top coat and then ttry a matte top coat over it.  What do you think?

OPI~Burlesque II

Happy Monday!  Fall is here in my neck of the woods.  It's cloudy and cold!  Well, not cold, just not 90+ degrees.  I have the other 2 OPI Burlesque glitters to show you today.  But first, I need to correct myself about the release date of these polishes.  They are out now!  You can find them at your favorite OPI e-tailer and retailer!
These pictures are all inside with a flash.  The first picture is one coat of polish and the second is two coats of polish.

Simmer & Shimmer is a beautiful sheer aqua colored blue base with aqua, silver and just a tiny bit of pink glitter.  So pretty and sparkly!




Show It & Glow It!  By far my favorite of the glitters.  It is a sheer dark magenta base jammed pack with dark and light pink and siver glitter.  This one is a must have!


There are 2 other glitters in this collection.  Glow Up Already! is an olive green and gold glitter and Bring On the Bling is a gold glitter.  So what do you think of the gitters?  Have you bought any yet?

Massini~Purple Medallion

Happy Tuesday!  Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend, I did!  The weather is warn and wonderful.  We swam, we ate, I drank :), everyone was happy.

Today, I have Purple Medallion by Massini.  I saw this polish on Body and Soul and I knew I had to have it!  So the lovely Mary put me on the waiting list for it and here it is.  I think this is my most beautiful glitter polish I have. It is just stunning!  You can get your own bottle here.

Purple Medallion is a what I would call a dark magenta or a medium purple base with a TON of fushia and rainbow glitter. 
This polish doesn't just sparkle, it glows!  I can't wait to try more of Massini's glitters!

Diamond Cosmetics~Spring 2010, Part 2

Today I have the second half of Diamond Cosmetics Spring 2010 collection.  These polishes are availible on their website for $2.25 and that is a deal you simply cannot pass up!

Tranquility is a cross between a baby blue and a pale mint green creme.

 
Gypsy Pink is a great hot pink pearly shimmer.

Hot Lips is my favorite.  For the life of me, I could not get it to photograph well or true to color at all!  This color is a light neon magenta creme.  Stunning and great for Spring, Summer or all the time!
