OPI Magazine Cover Mouse

Hi, you guys! :)

Today, I'm wrapping up the OPI Couture de Minnie Collection with the last and only textured polish of the set. Magazine Cover Mouse is a cool-toned red full of pink and gold shimmery glitters that dries down to a textured matte glitter finish.






Just like the rest of the liquid sands, the texture in here comes from not just the glitters, but also gritty particles added for additional textured look and feel. The formula is quite good, as is typical for the liquid sands. It applies smoothly and evenly, with the glitters and the texture particles distributing themselves nicely across the nails. It's also pigmented, so two coats is all you need for total coverage.

Hope you have enjoyed my posts on the OPI Couture de Minnie Collection. Now that I've tried all the colors, I have to say it's definitely a fun and girly collection that captures the spirit of Minnie. I'd love to know how you feel about the collection. What are your moust-haves (hehe... that joke never gets old :P)?

You can find Magazine Cover Mouse at your local nail salons and beauty stores such as Ulta and Dillard's for a retail price of $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI Innie Minnie Mightie Bow

Happy Monday! Hope your week is off to a great start! :-)

Today, continuing with the OPI Couture de Minnie Collection, I've got another fun color to share with you. Innie Minnie Mightie Bow is a bold, intense cool-toned red with a scattering of subtle pink shimmers.






The formula is fantastic. It applies onto the nails in thin, smooth, and even coats. And it has enough pigmentation that you can probably get away with one coat, though I did two for the swatches to get a little more depth to the color, though honestly, I didn't notice much difference with that additional coat. If you're looking for a bold red with a great formula, this is definitely one to consider. :-)

OPI Minnie Style

Hi, you guys! We just spent the Saturday morning trying to fight back against the blackberry bush that's slowly creeping from the hillside into our backyard. This bush is huge and invasive, so it's posing to be an interesting problem for the hubby. Hopefully we can clear it faster than it's growing, but if not, I guess we can always hire some goats like they did at a local university to clear out weeds and blackberry bushes lol. :D

Today, I've got another fun color from the OPI Couture de Minnie Collection to share with you. Minnie Style is filled with uniformly medium-sized reflective pink and red and non-reflective white hexagon glitters in a sheer base.






Minnie Style is a glitter very much from the same inspiration as a lot of the glitter polishes we see from OPI, with their signature larger-sized hex glitters in a variety of colors. Application is a little tricky, but that is typical of glitters of this size. Make sure to get enough polish on your brush, then dollop that onto the nails and gingerly smooth and distribute the glitters around. It does take a little bit of finagling, but it's not too bad. What you see in the swatches is one coat over OPI A Definite Moust-Have.

OPI A Definite Moust-Have

Hi you guys! Hope your week is going well! :-)

Today, I've got another of the pretty colors from the OPI Couture de Minnie Collection to share with you. A Definite Moust-Have is a bright medium pink with some red and coral undertones and subtle silver shimmers in a pearly finish.






This color is so intense and rich, it reminds me of a ripe watermelon. The fine silver shimmers are most noticeable in the bottle, translating to a pearly sheen that adds depth to the color once on the nails. The formula is great and easy to apply. It goes on thinly and smoothly without any issues, and is opaque in two quick coats. Without a doubt, this is my favorite from the collection. It's a color that just screams summer to me, and I'm all about that right now. This is definitely the moust-have of the collection! (*nudges* I made a pun... get it? hehe.)

OPI Chic From Ears To Tail

Hi you guys! I just got the nastiest paper cut... arrg. It hurt like crazy, but the first thing I thought of was thank goodness it's not on my swatching hand lol.

Today, I want to kick off the five-polish OPI Couture de Minnie Collection. First up is Chic From Ears To Tail, your typical light barbie-pink creme with just a scattering of subtle shimmers.






First of all, I thought this name is just sooo cute hehe! As you guys may know, I have a pet chinchilla, so I'm undeniably partial to all cute rodent references. :D

While this has shimmers, I would say it's mostly a creme. The shimmers are pretty faint, and you'll only see them if the light hits just right. The formula is ok for the most part. It was still a little thin and streaky at two coats, so I did have to do a third coat to even everything out.
