Review & Swatches: Nicole by OPI Carrie Underwood Collection

Good afternoon, beauties!

Today I have the Carrie Underwood Collection from Nicole by OPI. If you enjoy feminine and vampy shades, or are simply just a Carrie Underwood fan, you may just love these polishes! 

Love My Pups is a soft, pale pink. The image below was done in three, coats, but is sheer enough to be used for a french mani. This was the most delicate shade from this collection. 

Carrie'd Away consists of gold and silver micro glitters. This was one coat over Love My Pups, but can easily reach opacity in three coats.

Sing You Like a Bee is a clear base loaded with gold and white shimmers. The formula on this was a little thick making application a bit tricky, but look at how gorgeous! This was two coats.

Southern Charm is a soft, brown nude. The formula on this was a bit streaky, but evened out in three, thin coats.

Sweet Daisy is a peachy, pink salmon. Of all the girly shades from this collection, this was my top pic. The image was done in two coats. 

Carnival Cotton Candy  is a bright, Pepto Bismol pink. This was two generous coats.

Color Me Country is a medium pink with slight coral undertones. This color was a bit meh for my taste. I do, however; love the crelly finish. This was 2 coats.

Some Hearts is a a coral crelly beauty! Look at how squishy! This was two coats.

American As Apple Pie is a vibrant red with a faint shimmer finish. The formula on this was spot on and opaque in two coats. 

Party Bus is a clear base that consists of silver holo hexes and flowers. This was one coat, but I did have to fish out the flowers. Lips Are Dripping Honey is a clear base loaded with pink and champagne gold glitter. One easy coat on the ring finger.  


Goodbye Shoes is a slate gray with greenish/blue undertones. This was the most random polish from the collection, but was one of my favorites. The image was done in two coats.

Fisher Queen is a vampy, purple/plum shimmer. The picture leans more purple than it really is IRL. It's a bit darker in person. Pretty! This was two coats

Backstage Pass was my favorite shade from this collection, hands down! Look how vampy and glossy! This is my current mani and is absolutely stunning! <3<3<3


Overall, this collection is geared mostly to pink/girly shades, which many of you may or may not like. I did wish there were more variety, but they did offer great vampy colors and glitter toppers, so I'm not complaining!

The Carrie Underwood Collection will be available January 2014 for $7.99 each at retailers including select CVS, Duane Reade, HEB, Kroger, Kmart, Ulta, Walmart, Fred Meyer, Meijer, and Harmon locations.  In Canada, these shades will be available for $10.99 each at Shoppers Drug Mart, Target Canada, Walmart Canada, Jean Coutu, London Drug, and Loblaws.


Which colors will you be picking up? Thoughts?! I'd love to know down below!
