I’m All Ears


Name: I’m All Ears


Collection: OPI Vintage Minnie Mouse Collection


Colour: Bright magenta jelly-ish polish with shimmery pink and purple glassy fleck glitter


Coats: 3


Pros: This polish was fantastic and it is definitely one of my new favourites! It goes on smoothly and evens out nicely for a great finish that is shiny and complex. I love magenta shades because they combine purple, pink and red for those days when I’m feeling indecisive. Finally, the glassy flecks suspended in this jelly like formula add another dimension to the polish and look amazing when the light hits them.


Cons: Yes we have all seen this colour before from OPI and about every other nail polish brand so it isn’t unique. Also its formula was still a little sheer after 2 coats so I had to use 3 but I was impressed with how fast it dried!


Similar Shades: OPI Muppets “Meep, Meep, Meep” has a similar look but is just a little more red while “Ladies and Magenta-men” is lighter. If you want a magenta with even more bling, then try OPI’s “DS Extravagance”

Pepe's Purple Passion



Name: Pepe's Purple Passion

Collection: 2011 Holiday Muppets Collection

Colour: Deep Purple with Glassy Fuchsia Flecks

Coats: 2

Pros: I love purple so I was really excited when I saw this in the bottle; I was even happier when it looked exactly the same on my nails. Unfortunately, my camera didn’t pick up the lovely glassy flecks that make this a perfect of combination of polish and glitter. This was refreshing (for my nails and my nail polish remover!) after the many glitters in this collection. Finally, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it didn’t stain my nails and fingers.

Cons: A little streaky for the first coat and quite difficult to control on the second so I needed do some touching up.

Similar Shades: “We’ll Always Have Paris” and “Mrs. O'Leary's Bbq” are similar shades that are glossy crèmes without the sparkle.
