OPI Pink Friday

I debated on whether or not to pick up the new pink nail polish from the Nicki Minaj for OPI collection. I have a shamefully large nail polish collection that contains more baby pink nail polish than any one person should ever own. But when my friend Tracey kept mentioning how unique this color was, I convinced myself to buy it.

Before purchasing, i looked up swatches online to see if it was similar to any other colors I own. I couldn't find any websites claiming it to have any dupes.

My first thought from looking at swatches online was that it must be extremely close in color to Butter London's Teddy Girl. Boy, was I wrong. This polish is unlike any other pink I own. It's somehow extremely bright, without being neon. It's one of those colors that makes your hands look a few shades tanner, which is always nice. I'd say it's darker than a "baby" pink, more of a midtoned bubblegum pink. I wouldn't call it "Barbie" pink because it seems to have a tiny tinge of a peachy, melon color too it, at least compared to other pinks I own. Phew! Now on to the swatches!

As you can tell, this pink is unique, at least to my collection. It's just different and I'm glad I decided to get it. On the nails it looks like a pink, but see how next to other pinks, it's warmer? Most of my pinks have blue undertones so I'm glad I found something different. I hope this helped someone out there trying to decide if they need this in their collection. (Because we all need one more pink, right? ;))

Have you picked this up yet?
