OPI Muppets Most Wanted-Swatches and Review

Hi everyone, happy Hump Day!  I want to thank everyone for the well wishes yesterday for my work evaluation.  So I went downstairs yesterday about two minutes before my review was going to start and my boss says...oh, I told you the wrong day.  So it's today haha.  I wore an uncomfortable shirt for nothing because it looked nice haha #firstworldproblems.  I just read my review, they always send it to us beforehand, and it was "satisfactory".  Geez, double the work for the year, thanks for the satisfactory.

So today I am bringing you a collection I'm really excited about, the new OPI Muppets Most Wanted Collection.  When I saw the press release I wasn't very excited about this collection, but I definitely like it better in person.  This collection consists of 8 polishes, two light colored pastels, one sheer shimmer, one duochrome, one metallic, and three glitters.  There's really a good variety of polishes so I really liked that.

I Love Applause 

This polish is a "whitened" pink cream polish, pretty much the color of cotton candy.  I had to use three coats for this polish and even then there were some patches that weren't fully opaque.  You can't tell in the photos, but I could tell in real life.




Chillin' Like a Villain

This is the pale peachy counterpart to the first polish.  This polish is a light peachy cream and it reminds me of a creamsicle.   This polish had the same formula as the first polish, sheer but buildable in three coats, but it also did have some patchiness after three coats.




Int'l Crime Caper

This polish is a sheer white shimmer polish with a pink flash.  It leans very pink on me.  The formula was good considering it was a sheer.  I used three coats and obviously there is still visible nail line.




Kermit Me To Speak

Next up is the duochrome of the collection.  Kermit Me To Speak is a purple/green/gold duochrome and I thought the strength of the duochrome was really good.  This one was pretty thin and I need three coats to build up the color.





Miss Piggy's Big Number

This polish is a bold bright blue metallic and it looks very glowy on the nail.  I compared this one to five other dark blue metallic OPIs and I didn't have a dupe.  People have been saying that it's a dupe for OPI Into the Night, but it isn't.  I will have a comparison soon.  This polish was on the sheer side and it did need three coats to build up the color, good formula though.




Let's Do Anything We Want!

Here is the first glitter of the collection, which is a mix of pink metallic glitter, white glitter, and big white square glitter.  This one is cotton candy in a bottle :)  Love it!  I used one coat over OPI I Love Applause. 




Muppets World Tour

The glitters continue to be a hit for me!  Muppets World Tour is a mix of silver glitter and a little bit of fuchsia pink and metallic blue glitter.  I love this one as well.  I used one coat over OPI Int'l Crime Caper.  I really liked this polish combination.




Gaining Mole-mentum

Last up, a shredded glitter mix!  This one is really unique and it's a mix of gold, silver, and rose gold shredded glitter in a clear base.  I love this one as well.  I was worried that the glitter would stick up off the nail but it doesn't.  This is one coat over OPI Don't Pretzel My Buttons.




Overall, this collection is a good one in my book.  Some of the colors are very unique but the glitters really take the cake for me.  Have you picked up any from this collection?  You can also see a review in video form :)

  7. Oh, I wish these pale sheers would look half this beautiful on me! Really great swatches. I'm afraid the collection doesn't excite me overall, but Anything We Want is so adorable!
