It has 6 colors, one of them being a purple shatter "Super Bass Shatter" (JB fans, go for it), but I was again disappointed. Shatter again, really? Kudos to them for coming up with it, but please, move on! We've had this grunge look for too long. We get it, you like to brag.
So the other two colors are "Metallic For Life", and "Save Me". If you haven't noticed these are all a play on Nicki Minaj's songs. Now they're getting funky with that glitter! For "Save Me" it's obviously a glitter coat, but the funky part it the hair thin strips of glitter. I think they're trying to start another trend here but honestly, it doesn't look that great...Now for "Metallic For Life", it stays true to its name with a graphite steel look, and ooh lets see here: square chunks of steel glitter?? Inventive! Now this one actually looks pretty decent(:
So here's the bad part. Its their fall collection right? Then why oh why?, Mother of Polish do they not have a dark color scheme?!? Fall Polish=dark, burgundy, deep, wine colors that's what its all about! So why do they electric neon colors? With of course the exception of "Pink Friday" a more pastel like color. So we have "Did It On Em" nearly the same to "Who The Shrek Are You?" (pic below), ALSO by OPI. Really?
Now, don't get me wrong, I love the polishes themselves, but OPI has been going downhill lately. I feel like they're trying to imitate Chanel's September denim collection with out of season shades, just like Nubar did, shade for shade too! >:( (I have lost all respect for them now), but they should bothknow: You don't play with Chanel.
Have you seen Deborah Lippman's new collection? http://lippmanncollection.stores.yahoo.net/allproducts.html

I found this post both helpful and interesting! Maybe for your next post you can review other collections by Opi that are (for lack of a better word), better!
