OPI Ford Mustang Collection Press Release & Promo Picture

OPI Ford Mustang CollectionThis is the very latest coming down the OPI pipeline!

Ford Mustang will be celebrating their 50th anniversary in April, and they’ve teamed up with OPI to come out with a nail-polish collection.

Although I’m not a car buff (not by any stretch of the imagination, even), I’m still excited about this upcoming collaboration because it breaks down some gender stereotypes.

In this day and age, women are more independent than ever before, and I always find it refreshing to see women in dominant and adventurous roles. There’s nothing wrong with traditional feminine roles, but, like people in general, women are all different. It’s great to see the diversity and the woman power!

In this blog post, you’ll more information regarding the upcoming OPI Ford Mustang Collection that will be released in July 2014.

This is all the information I have, but if there’s anything new, I’ll either update this post or I’ll create a new post depending on how much new information there is to add.

Nicole by OPI Roughles Collection Press Release & Promo Pictures

Nicole by OPI Roughles CollectionThere has been a lot of nail news coming down the pipe, hasn’t there?

Well, just when you thought it stopped, I’m here to say (like Ron Popeil), “But wait! There’s more!”

No, I’m not going to promise you a free set of knives or tell you about a rotisserie that lets you ‘set it and forget it’. 😉

Instead, I have something way cooler – the Nicole by OPI Roughles Collection press release!

It includes 4 textured nail polish that have a speckled appearance, which reminds me of dinosaur eggs. Very interesting! And since they’re light shades, they remind me of Easter eggs.

Haha, the name of this collection, Roughles, is pronounced as “Ruffles”! I was hungry while preparing this blog post, so when I thought of Ruffles, images of flavoured potato chips sprung instantly to mind. (I hope I didn’t get any drool on the keyboard!) 😉

What’s your favourite flavour of Ruffles chips? (I really like All Dressed.)

P.S. Remember, you can still vote for me daily until February 25 in the Nicole by OPI challenge I entered. Click the link to learn more about how you can vote for me on Twitter and see the nail art I painted.

P.P.S. Also, don’t forget to enter my nail-polish giveaway, Canadians! Until February 28, enter for your chance to win the entire OPI Brazil Collection! (Multiple entries are possible. See the post for details.)

OPI Muppets Most Wanted Collection Press Release & Promo Pictures

OPI Muppets Most Wanted CollectionHappy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

Will you be my nail Valentine today? 😉 (Psst, just a little heads up. I’ll be having a huge nail-polish giveaway for Canadians really soon, and you won’t want to miss it. Stay tuned for details!)

Now onto the star of today’s blog post – the OPI Muppets Most Wanted Collection, which officially hits stores this March!

I’m really excited to wear all of these colours, but especially Kermit Me to Speak because it looks like a duochrome from the promo picture. Also, I can’t wait to wear Miss Piggy’s Big Number. And since I’m curious about wearing more nudes, Chillin’ Like a Villain piques my interest.

Which ones are you most excited about?

Little Swatch And Learn Tidbit: The OPI Muppets Most Wanted Collection really tugs on my heartstrings because it reminded me that the very first press release I ever posted on the blog was for the OPI The Muppets Holiday Collection back in August 2011! It was the first time that I got the chance to collaborate with OPI’s amazing PR team. Whoa, I can hardly believe it’s been so long already! (And I still remember wearing and reviewing OPI Rainbow Connection very clearly!)

OPI Sheer Tints Press Release & Promo Pictures

OPI Sheer TintsYesterday, I blogged about the cool new OPI Glitter Off Base Coat that allows you to easily and quickly peel off even the most stubborn glitter from your nails.

Today, I have another cool press release to share. It’s all about the OPI Sheer Tints available in March.

As usual, OPI is a trailblazer because I haven’t seen anything like this in the mainstream, and I’m very excited to see what artistic looks people can come up with.

OPI Sheer Tints are pigmented top coats that you can use to layer over any nail polish or build up to achieve unique effects! I’m very curious about these, and you could probably create really neat stained-glass designs plus ombres!

OPI Glitter Off Base Coat Press Release

OPI Glitter Off Base CoatA couple of years ago, you may remember the trend among nailphiles that, to make it easier to remove glitter nail polish in a cinch, many were using PVA glue as a base coat. This meant that you could literally just peel it off, along with any stubborn glitter and forego the scrubbing-your-fingers-raw process.

Well, yesterday when I was on my way home from work, I received a bunch of cool press releases, which I’ll share with you all really soon!

The first one I’d love to tell you about is the OPI Glitter Off Base Coat, which is set to hit stores officially in March.

It promises to leave natural nails free of stains and also to make it easy to remove nail polish in just seconds without the need for a typical polish remover. You just peel the base coat and any polish on top off!

I’m really curious to try this one out, since you know that I have worn my fair share of glitter polishes. If I can avoid spending a long time to remove it, I’m all for it!

Edit: I updated this post to include step-by-step photos of how to use the OPI Glitter Off Base Coat!
