OPI Miss Universe Collection - Swatches and Reviews

  Today I want to share with you the OPI Miss Universe Collection, a four piece collection full of sparkle and shimmer, covering a wide range of colors and finishes.  I have really enjoyed this little collection, and hope you will too!  All swatches are shown without base coat, with topcoat.  I would recommend clicking on some of these to see the detail of the finish!

It's My Year

Outdoors, shade
 Shimmery purple packed with golden microglitter.  This is a stunning polish!  It is very similar to OPI Rally Pretty Pink, except much more purple.  Look for a comparison later!  Three coats for full coverage.

Congeniality Is My Middle Name

Outdoors, shade
 Deep berry with subtle pink and golden shimmer.  The shimmer here can be a bit difficult to see, but it is there, just enough to give this berry polish a unique glow.  It really stands out more in sunlight (below).  Three coats for full coverage.

Crown Me Already

Outdoors, shade
Clear base totally packed with silver small and large hex glitters.  This is like a silver glitter explosion.  Very blingy, haha.  Three coats for full coverage.  It is a bit too dense to use for layering, since one coat almost covers up the base color entirely, so it is best worn on its own.

Swimsuit... Nailed It

Outdoors, shade
Really beautiful bright royal blue packed with glitter.  Almost has a foil look to it.  This one is also very pigmented, needing only two coats for full coverage.  I absolutely love this color!  This might be my favorite from the collection.

Overall Review

I love the variety in this collection, from color to finish, there is a lot to choose from here.  It is hard for me to pick must-have polishes out of this collection, since I love them all so much.  My two favorites perhaps are Swimsuit... Nailed It and It's My Year, but then again blue and purple are also my favorite colors, so that is not much of a surprise.  They all applied very nicely, all 2-3 coats.  I have no problem recommending any of these pretties!  A great little four piece collection.  What do you all think?  Which is your favorite?

  7. I enjoy It's My Year and Crown Me Already! The red isn't enough of a difference from some others for me, and the blue is beautiful but not in the top two. Thanks for the swatches!!

  9. I'm most interested in getting Crown Me Already. It seems like the most unique of the set, and I definitely don't have anything like it. I like Swimsuit...but I may actually be getting close to having enough blue polish (not really).
