OPI Limited Edition Minnie Mouse Limited Edition Collection - Swatches and Review

Good morning! Today I have the Minnie Mouse Collection to share with you :)

OPI launches Vintage Minnie Mouse, including four limited edition nail lacquers, for summer. Created in honor of Disney’s beloved character, the colors encapsulate Minnie Mouse’s irresistible charm in playful, pretty shades of pink and red.

The Color of Minnie - medium red with a hidden pink shimmer that gives it a pearl-esque hue. Two coats.
I'm All Ears
- Magenta with a matching shimmer. I only used 2 coats but needed a 3rd to cover VNL.

If You Moust You Moust
- very vibrant fuchsia-pink. My camera couldn't capture this one accurately. Its very bright but not quite neon. Two coats.

Nothin Mousie 'Bout
It over The Color of Minnie. Very cute and girly combination. Nothin' Mousie 'Bout It is like a thick glaze. I used 1 coat over the red and brushed the hearts where I wanted them to go. Alternatively, you can pick them up off the brush using a toothpick and apply them where you want them to go.

Here she is alone. I used 3 coats to cover my stained nails.

Here she is over black. My favorite combination so far. Over black it flashes blue and purple. Gorgeous!

A view of the entire collection.

If you love pink then you will love this collection! The polishes are a cute tribute to Minnie Mouse and Disney fans. They all had great application, including Nothin' Mouse 'Bout It, which was a lot thicker than I imagined. I really love the glitter because its very versatile and can be used with our without the hearts, so its not a deal breaker if you don't like hearts. Overall the set is fun and very girly. My favorites from the collection are The Color of Minnie and Nothin' Mouse 'Bout It.

This limited edition promotion will be available beginning June 2012 at professional salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $8.50 ($9.95 CAN) suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer.

  6. I'm all Ears is a dupe of Disco Biscuit by Butter London. I wish these companies wouldn't just copy each other's colours! Although when it's brands that are cheaper on both sides of the pond, it's not a bad thing lol. I've been dithering over the BL but I think I'll give it a miss. I have Zoya Lola which isn't the same but it's still pink and blue!
