OPI Rainbow Connection - Review & Swatches

Hi Everyone!

New Year's Eve is just around the corner so some fun party nails are needed and I have found the perfect nail polish to inject some fun and sparkle into your manicure! I have applied OPI's Rainbow Connection from their recent Muppet's Collection for Christmas 2011. Rainbow Connection has a clear base and is packed full of small and large, round, multi-coloured pieces of glitter. You can pick up so many beautiful colours in there including green, red, silver, orange and gold.

I began by applying 2 coats of OPI Matte Nail Envy as my base followed by a coat of OPI's Lady in Black nail polish which is a solid, opaque black polish. I always like to apply a plain nail polish under my glitter polishes as it helps them to stick to your nail and not flake off. I then added 2 coats of Rainbow Connection. Despite some of the glitter pieces being quite large the polish applies quite easily and gives you a beautiful effect. I then finished off with a coat of Seche Vite Fast Drying Top Coat.

I love this polish and have had so many comments on it from people asking me how I did it! It is so eye catching and festive and would be perfect for any party or night out!

I purchased my polish from Beauty for Nails for £8.99 several weeks ago. I know that this polish is really popular and has sold out in some stores and online retailers but it's worth having a look for as its gorgeous!

Happy New Year everyone, I hope that you all have a happy and healthy 2012!
