I'm kind of posting this backward. I should be putting up the swatches and pictures of "Meep meep meep" from the OPI Muppets Collection, but I just love the sparkles with this combo.
These nails remind me of pink santa hats for some reason. The silver portion like the furry rim and the pink and the rest of the hat. Maybe it's just me :s
It's SUPPOSED to look be ombre but it didn't come out as great as I wanted it to but I still love how it sparkles in the light.
The pictures I took don't do it justice. It's wayyyyy more glittery/sparkly and a gorgeous pink colour, and I'm not someone who can keep pink on her nails for long (2 days tops) but this I have on for about 4 days so far.

Serious Flash....Showing you the pieces of glitter with less shine |

With flash |
The combo started with "Meep meep meep" because I was wearing it before I decided to do this (2 coats...and a 3rd because it chipped at the very ends after about 5 days).
Then I added a bit of "Excuse Moi" to the end of the nail then to cover 3/4 of my nail in two light coats (wiping the excess on the brush off before I put it on my nails).
Then to the very tip I put "Crown me already", trying to get the bigger chnks of glitter to the very tip of my nail and then lightly draging the fine glitter to about 1/3 of my nail.
Lastly I came back with "Excuse Moi" and painted a veryyy thin layer from near my cuticle area (the 1/4 left that only had "Meep meep meep") and with a light hand, put a veryyyy thin coat just overlapping where the end of "Crown me already" was (the fine glitter), leaving the large chunks of glitter at the very end untouched. The pink tint of "Excuse Moi" over "Crown me Already" gives a lighter pink to give the illusion that the colour is merging.
I put a clear, high shine top coat polish over it all after it dried completely to give it that extra shine and to lessen the rough texture of the glitter if I at some point pass it over my skin.
Hope you like it!!!
