Katy Perry OPI Collection - swatches.

News broke last year of OPI teaming up with Katy Perry for a collection of nail lacquers, the only info I could find was 'released in January'. Then, in this months Allure magazine I saw a small ad for it which sent me on my hunt. 

You buy all of the collection (including the 'Shatter' effect polish) separately in full size bottles for about £10.50 each OR you can get a mini's collection which is 3.75ml's of each one (not including the 'Shatter' topcoat but I'm guessing it's exactly like the Barry M one).

As I wanted to try them all I went for the mini's collection, here they are:



Katy Perry OPI mini's collection.
With a banging picture of Katy on the front.

Teenage Dream - A candy pink glittery number.
The One That Got Away - A ruby red with faint glittery hint.

Last Friday Night - A blue glitter.
Not Like the Movies - A green/silver with faint glitter.

This is just another look at Not Like the Movies, it's like a galaxy green/silver kinda colour, it has hints of faint glitter in it. It changes in the light and it's amazing!

Teenage Dream and The One That Got Away - 1st coat.

Last Friday Night and Not Like the Movies - 1st coat.

Teenage Dream and The One That Got Away - 2nd coat.
As you can see they look so much better with a 2nd coat, I actually have TOTGA on now I love it!!

Last Friday Night and Not Like the Movies - 2nd coat.
The picture doesn't do NLTM any justice at all, its amazing!

After trying them all I now want the full bottles of each one! So goodbye money - hello pretty nails!

Other OPI collections include Burlesque and Justin Bieber with their 'Nicole' range (I actually love the look of 2 of them hah!).

What nail polishes are hotting up your nails?

    I was tempted to buy this set from ASOS, and I think I will now I have seen your post on them!
    They look gorgeous, But I fear I may have the same idea as you and want to get the full size after!! Maybe buy two sets instead... hmm!

    This collection is so beautiful! I'd love to see what the glittery blue one over a white basecoat, I imagine it would look even nicer.

    Not like the movies looks amazing! :) I may have to get it! :) I'm sure the shatter polish is just like the Barry M one, even the packaging looks similar :S it's just waay more expensive lol

    i love these. i first considered the minis, but when you need two coats there's not that much in those little bottels. the shatter is my fave tho, and i've been using it over all my exisiting colours, giving them some new life :)

    Ooh I've been waiting ages for these to come out here. If you have them then it means they must be arriving soon! I think I'll have to get big ones too. And the shatter effect one seeing as we can't get Barry M here. x

    Getting paid tomorrow and may have to treat myself to this set as a post-dissertation prezzie!! Anything to make me 1% closer to being Kpez.
    LOVE them all. Thanks for sharing 1st coat and 2nd coat too, always interesting to see the difference it makes!

    I really do love these colours, I was tempted to buy the minis off asos myself but didn't for some reason. I did make a cheeky model's own order although my nails are ridiculously short atm xx

    I skimmed an article about this collection and wasn't fussed - now after reading this post I want them all! I'm going to hit up ebay - it's the cheapest way to get OPI. The greeny/silver is gorgeous and I love the sparkly one with the different sizes and shapes of glitter. AMAZING.

    The minis are such a good idea. They all look so pretty, but far too pricey for me to get the full sizes! I love Teenage Dream x

    i wasn't too keen on these when i just saw the bottles - the colours look a little cheap or something, but omg do they look amazing on!
    I love the glitter in teenage dream and the 2nd coat really does make a difference x
