Nail of the Day: If You Moust, You Moust

When I heard that OPI was releasing the Vintage Minnie Mouse Collection for summer, I was extremely excited. I love all things Disney and I even had a Minnie Mouse themed bedroom as a child. I had looked over a lot of preview swatches before they were released last week and I was disappointed that not a single one of the colours excited me! :( The collection only contains 3 colours and a topcoat. The three colours are "If You Moust, You Moust" - a blue-toned pink creme, "I'm All Ears" - a shimmery fuschia, and "The Color of Minnie" - a red colour. OPI also included a topcoat called "Nothin' Mousy 'Bout It" - a pinkish based topcoat with big heart shapes suspended in it.

Although I was disappointed that there were no colours that really... jumped at me when I looked at the swatches, I decided that I needed to honour the lovely Miss Minnie and purchase at least one - and I went with "If You Moust, You Moust". I'm so happy to announce that I was pleasantly surprised! Despite the slightly excessive amount of pink polishes in my collection, this colour is somewhat unique. Most of my pinks are warm-toned (which I don't understand because cool toned colours look better on me... I really need to be less impulsive) and the cool toned ones that I do have are darker or more purple. The only way to describe this colour is ... the perfect Barbie pink. I love it!

The application was sensational, opaque in two coats (almost a one-coater), shiny and smooth. OPI maintains its place as #1 in my heart. Minnie Mouse forever <3
