I posted about the OPI x Hello Kitty holiday collection, and now here are some swatches.
The brand collaborated with Hello Kitty and it all started with the colour “Lets be Friends!” which they had released before, and it had been a best-seller.
Here it is in two different lights:
And with the bottle. You can see that it’s a really pretty light pink which looks almost like white. Super trendy for right now. Unfortunately, the formula is super streaky and it was difficult to get a streak-free finish in 2 coats. I used three coats which was better but not ideal. I feel like three coats of polish with a primer and a top coat is a bit much. It also makes the polish flake off much more quickly. This manicure only stayed on my nails for a couple of days because I wasn’t feeling it.
I tried topping it with one of the glitter top coats that are part of this collection: This is Let’s Celebrate.
It’s a sheer pink polish with pink glitter. It looked so pretty in the bottle but it wasn’t glittery enough for me.
Wasn’t a winner.
Then I tried a Hush of Blush. It was ok. Formula is nice and it went on creamy, but I just don’t like shimmers. I’m more of a cream kind of girl.
So then I tried My Favourite Gal Pal. This is an almost jelly kind of blue. I felt kind of meh about it. I like inky blues, and this came close to my favourite colours. The formula was smooth and two coats gave me opaque coverage, which was nice. I’d want it to be a bit darker for holiday? Especially for fall?
You can check out the original collection here. All the colours are in salons now.
