shimmer - Lucy's Stash

Hi everybody!

Today I'll show you OPI Vintage Minnie Mouse collection which consists of four new shades! Unfortunately I broke two of my nails so they are much shorter than usually :-/

OPI says: "Created in honor of Disney’s beloved character, the colors encapsulate Minnie Mouse’s irresistible charm in playful, pretty shades of pink and red. This collection brings together the expertise of OPI and the iconic style of Minnie Mouse to inspire the distinct palette of vibrant, feminine shades for summer Nails will pop against summer skin in these classic, saturated hues – holding their own alongside the bold prints of the season."

If You Moust You Moust - medium pink creme. It's a pretty and sweet shade of pink that applied very easily. The pigmentation was great, it was almost one-coater. The nail line was still visible a little bit so I've applied second coat. Polish also dried fast and removal was very easy.

I’m All Ears - raspberry jelly packed with magenta, silver and fuchsia glass flecks. This is such a lovely polish! The jelly formula is very pretty but could be pigmented a tad more. I'm wearing two coats which were like 98% opaque. I only saw a hint of my nail line. The drying time of this polish was average - not as fast as the If You Moust You Moust.

The Color of Minnie - cool-toned rich red with fine shimmer. I love this red! Such rich colour with awesome pigmentation! It applied like butter - really easily and smoothly. The nail line was not visible very much in the first coat but had to apply second coat for perfect coverage. As the pigmentation was really high, I've experienced staining of my skin when I was doing clean up and when removing the polish. The shade and formula remind me of Wocka Wocka! a lot, I might do a comparison of OPI reds :)

Nothin’ Mousie ‘bout It - pink heart glitter in a clear base with blue and orange glass flecks. I'm not a big fan of confetti glitter, because application is always a struggle an unfortunately it was the same with this polish. I basically applied the first layer covering the nail with glass flecks and sometimes one heart glitter. Then I had to 'fish out' additional heart glitters and place them on the nail. It will be lovely for Valentine's Day manicure :)

Hello lovelies!

Look what I've got! The whole OPI Spider-Man collection! You've probably seen it before because I'm quite late with my review. I've got the polishes a bit later so I could review them earlier, sorry :-/

The collection is inspired by The Amazing Spider-man film and consists of 6 colours and one Shatter:

My Boyfriend Scales Wall - grey-ish white creme. This is not a classic bright white; it's somehow muted, with added grey in it. I really like it and it became my favourite white polish. it is not as much for the grey-ish colour as for its formula. It's flawless! It applied great and two coats were enough for a full coverage. I hope this would be a one-coater but unfortunately it is not.

Your Web Or Mine? - medium pink with pearl finish. Ehm...I'm not sure how this colour fits into the Spider-man colour palette. The pearl finish is very strong which makes the polish streaky and it was a bit of a fight to apply it nicely. Two coats were enough for full coverage.

Call Me Gwen-ever - muted orange creme with coral undertones. For me this is great summer orange colour..it is not too bright or too boring, mainly because of the coral undertones. It has a great formula and pigmentation - I've needed two coats for full coverage and the polish dried very fast.

Number One Nemesis - metallic grey-ish green with gold particles. I seriously don't know what happened here, the pictures didn't come up well at all! Unfortunately I broke my nail so I couldn't take new pics :-/ Back to the polish though...it is hard to describe colour - it is like golden olive green mixed with graphite silver with added gold particles. It is also dupe for Chanel Graphite. It applied nicely and I've used two thicker coats. In the real life the colour looks so much better and more sparkly and you'll love it ;o)

Just Spotted The Lizard - yellow-ish green/olive green duochrome. I fell in love with this type of colour however this shade, I presume, is an answer to Chanel Peridot mania. It is not unique as it is almost exact dupe of Peridot but it certainly is a beauty. It is well pigmented, I'm wearing two thicker coats. Polish dried very fast and is a bit streaky.

Into The Night - dark blue shimmer. Lovely shade, very well suited for Spider-man collection :) I liked the final result, the deep blue but to get me there I had to apply three coats. I'm a two-coater girl so three coats for me is a no no. I am a bit disappointed that the polish doesn't have better pigmentation because OPI is my fav brand and they do so well with pigmented polishes (if you know what I mean!). Despite that it applied nicely but the finish is a bit streaky.

Shatter The Scales - dark forest green Shatter with silver particles. Oh wow, I love the silver particles in the Shatter! It's not flat like the other creme shatters. However I'm not sure if we need more crackling polishes, this trend is way last year! Shatter applied well and dried fast and I'm wearing topcoat over it.

Overall I like the film-themed collection but where is red??? Spider-man without red is like Britain without Queen! I wouldn’t mind repeat of a red shade, wouldn’t have to be completely new shade, but I expected red :(

Most of the polishes had great formula and pigmentation and I also quite like the two dupes for Chanel polishes. It makes a great cheaper option.
