OPI The Muppets Nail Lacquer in Warm & Fozzie

[image source : O.P.I.]

I have previously posted about O.P.I.'s Designer... De Better! that was released in the new The Muppets range. Doesn't the the collection look absolutely fabulous? I was initially attracted to the glitter polishes but I knew I wouldn't wear them often and instead picked up the two foil colours from the lot. When I tested them out at the nail salon, it was love at first swatch.

Warm & Fozzie is a bronze shade with flecks of golden copper-pink micro-shimmer. Depending on the light, it can come across as a metallic rose-brown or a golden-bronze. I absolutely love this shade and think it's very unique. The formula is wonderful, it goes on smoothly and provides good coverage with just 2 to 3 coats.


It's such a lovely autumnal shade and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside (just like its namesake). I went to a nail salon to get a pedicure and have worn Warm & Fozzie on my toes for more than two weeks without issues. But based on experience, nail polishes do last longer on toes and it will start showing some minimal tip wear after 4 to 5 days on fingers.

I can frankly say that I'm a huge fan of O.P.I. and their nail polishes are really good quality. O.P.I. Nail Lacquer is sold at a regular retail price of RM59 at most nail salons and Shins. You can get them at cheaper prices from these online e-tailers at Nail Fiesta and Slammin' Tips'n'Toes. I have ordered from both before and their service is reliable and recommended.

OPI The Muppets Nail Lacquer in Designer de Better

The Muppet Show brings back many fond childhood memories so naturally, I am pretty excited about their upcoming movie and teaming up with O.P.I., just as I am getting into nail polish really is the icing on the cake :-)

Out of the 12 limited edition colours available, I was most attracted to Designer... de Better! and Warm & Fozzie (to be reviewed separately). I'm starting to like these high-shimmer, metallic-finish nail polishes a lot!

Designer... de Better! is a metallic silver polish with pink and copper micro-glitter. It shines differently under different lighting and is an extremely fun shade to wear. Application is relatively easy and is opaque with just 2 coats (no top coat in photos). The dry down is smooth although it looks slightly gritty. I wore this on my nails for nearly a week before it started to show some minimal tip wear.

In a season where red and green are more common, O.P.I. has most certainly delivered a very different collection with The Muppets, comprising of so many fun and beautiful variety of colours. O.P.I. polishes are sold at a regular retail price of RM59 each, in most nail salons or Shins. You can get them at a better price (ranging between RM30 to RM33) from these e-tailers at Nail Fiesta and Slammin' Tips'n'Toes.
