OPI Touring America Launch (and Muppets sneak peek!) *pic heavy*

Hey everyone! If you follow me on Twitter you will know that I am meant to be on a hiatus in the lead up to my wedding. However, I have sooooooo much stuff to post, I just couldn't stay away! So, what I have decided to do is try and get through my huge backlog of reviews and swatches this weekend, and then schedule posts for the next three weeks until I get married! It is a big task, but I just have so much stuff I need to show you and it just can't wait until after the wedding!

For this post, I have some pic spam from the OPI Touring America launch party which was held at the gorgeous Woollahra Post Office last night. I was ridiculously excited about this event, firstly because of the Touring America collection, but also becuase I was hoping to catch a glimpse of the Muppets holiday collection! The nail polish fairies must have been listening, because they had a full Muppets display and I was lucky enough to even have a mani done with one of the glitters, Rainbow Connection!


Rainbow Connection is a crazy, super blingy multi-coloured glitter polish. There's silver, green, pink, orange, blue and yellow regular and hex glitter all jam packed into a clear base. It is plain and simple awesome. I will definitely be getting a bottle (or two!) of this when it is released and I can't wait to try the other glitters in the collection as well (Gone Gonzo... drool!)

And now for the pics of the products featured at the Touring America launch event!

The Touring America collection, available now at selected beauty salons, spas and David Jones nationally for $19.95RRP.

OPI's new Lemon Tonic Manicure/Pedicure collection and Hibiscus Blossom Avojuice Hand & Body Lotion, available in August/September 2011. These lotions smell absolutely divine!

The gorgeous Michelle from Cosmetic Cupcake with the lovely Ruth and Bill McKendrick from International Beauty Supplies/OPI Australia.

And finally, the only photo of the night of me! The downside of taking all my own photos is that I'm never in any! I got this sneaky polaroid taken with one of the "cowboys" at the launch party! ha!

I was lucky enough to get a goodie bag with some samples of the Touring, Nice Stems and Beiber collections so I will definitely be posting those in the coming weeks!

    I freakin lost it when I saw muppets last night. But I had to stay all calm and reserved and just nod and smile. When what I really wanted to do was sweep the whole stand into my bag and run out of there shrieking with joy! lol

  15. Awesome post! Few questions:

    How does Rainbow in the Sky-lie compare to Rainbow Connection? 

    Are they similar to Deborah Lippmann's Happy Birthday?

    Thanks!

  16. From what I can remember, the Nicole by OPI one has darker glitter in it, where as rainbow connection is really bright silver and ligther coloured glitter pieces.

    I will have to look at Happy Birthday tonight, but again, I think the colour of the glitter in HB is a lot darker and less silvery than Rainbow Connection.

  18. Funny how Touring America is just starting to launch now to some beauty supply stores in the states, while we have had the Stems collection out since late June - early July. But then that fits with your summer starting which stems is certainly a summer collection.
