Pink Wednesday: Nicole by OPI: Tink's in the Pink

It's Wednesday! Half way there!! You know by now, on Wednesdays we wear pink! Today I have a really fun one by Nicole by OPI from their Tinkerbell Collection. I love Tinkerbell so when I heard they had a nail polish collection inspired by her I was super stoked.  I received part of the collection for consideration and the first polish I am going to show you all is Tink's in the Pink. 

Tink's in the Pink is a really fun hot pink creme with a gorgeous high shine.  I am so so so picky with hot pinks.  They usually run too red on me or something. This one is PERFECT as it has a hint of bubblegum pink going on. This is what I want when I crave a hot pink. It actually works with my skin tone which is crazy, hot pink never does. I just love this one. It's the perfect hot pink.

I needed three coats on this one. Two was just a bit streaky for my liking. I think the third coat perfected it.  I love the end result. Beautiful high shine! Beautiful! 

Stay tuned for more from the Tinkerbell collection! I have three more colors to show you and I am super excited about it!

Americans, any plans for Independence Day tomorrow? I want to know!!!!

On Wednesdays We Wear Pink: OPI Minnie Mouse Collection

Happy Wednesday everyone! One day closer to the weekend.  On Wednesdays we wear pink and since I have skipped a few I thought I'd show you a few today, though one is red. These colors are from OPI's Minnie Mouse collection. If you know anything about me you know I am a Disney fanatic. When I am not in Disney World I am not happy! It's my favorite place in the entire world, much to my husband's dismay. He likes it there but wants to go somewhere else once in a while LOL. So when I saw OPI was putting out a Minnie Mouse collection I squealed with joy! These are three of the four colors. The 4th is a sheer pink glitter with hearts, very fun! 

I look awful in this pic but I needed a Minnie photo for the post LOL. Don't mind my crazy hair (it was FL in July man!) but there's our girl:

PLEASE NOTE: I mixed up I'm All Ears and If You Moust You Moust. I apologize for that! It's going to be a PAIN to re-edit photos so just please note my mistake. Thank you all for letting me know!

The first color I have here is my favorite of the bunch, I'm All Ears  If You Moust You Moust this is a gorgeous pink. It's hard to describe, it's not hot pink but it's not baby pink it's in-between. I don't pull pink off well but this is the color pink I love when I do wear pink. Something about it is just so flattering. I think it's pretty blue based, but I am no expert. ;-)

This is really If You Moust You Moust:

Next up is If You Moust You Moust I'm All Ears which is a name I do not understand.  I have seen this compared to Butter London's Disco Biscuit but I don't have it to do my own comparison. As you can see from the first photo it is pretty sheer, but I think that was mostly the work of the flash as the second picture doesn't show the nail line as much. This is not my favorite color pink in all the land but it's alright. 

This is really  I'M ALL EARS:

Last I have a red one to share with you. This is called The Color of Minnie and I think that it really does fit Minnie Mouse! This is a super pretty red with a pink duo chrome frost look to it. It's a pretty fun take on red. 

All of these were two coats. The only one that might benefit from a third is If You Moust You Moust. My favorite is I'm All Ears it's a perfect pink! Which one is your favorite? 

Do you love Disney as much as I do!? Share your favorite Disney memory with me below!
