Nails News: Mariah Carey for OPI Nail Polish

\


Mariah Carey will be joining Nicki Minaj and Katy Perry as pop stars who have collaborated on nail lacquers with OPI. WWD reports that Carey has signed on to create two polish collections for the mega beauty brand, launching next year. A premiere collection of eight shades will drop in January, and a second one will follow suit. It's great timing for Carey, who is working on a new album and also joining American Idol as a judge.


Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, executive vice president and artistic director of OPI said in WWD, "Nails are part of her personality. I really have always looked for celebrities for whom nails are very important, and it is not something you just Photoshop on a picture. She was very much part of the color selection….She’s classic, but she can
be edgy at certain times. She’s very elegant….It appeals to me also that she’s a mom. She’s a working woman and then she has this very glitzy, glamour side to her."


Prediction: Her lacquer shades will be ultra-girly and inspired by her past titles, like Glitter, Rainbow, and Butterfly.

lol, katy perry's collab was a mess. didn't like nicki minajs' either.
st00pidness 9th-Aug-2012 09:56 pm (UTC)
what katy's collection was good besides that awful shatter polish.
joliebelle 9th-Aug-2012 09:57 pm (UTC)
this.
surf_brat 9th-Aug-2012 10:01 pm (UTC)
yeah, the shatter polish sucked. then again, i'm not big into sparkly or bright shades.
jeterluva 9th-Aug-2012 10:08 pm (UTC)
I liked one of Nicki's colors. It was a glitter one. I think it was Save me. But Katy's was all awful.
yooperchild 9th-Aug-2012 11:17 pm (UTC)
I got a few from Nicki's. The Pink was nice and the glitter was really fun.

I only got one from Katy' s (Not Like The Movies) and I like it a lot.
icangoforthat 9th-Aug-2012 09:45 pm (UTC)
I expect, pink, glitter, and maybe some butterfly salon strips.


oop maybe I should learn to read

This is the damn truth (although I really wish they had more vampy/black colors).
djc114 9th-Aug-2012 11:21 pm (UTC)
I've run out of room in my polish drawer because of them. Damn them!!!
sugarless_girl 9th-Aug-2012 09:46 pm (UTC)
Why do I think the collection will be 90s glitter and ~shimmer with a tacky butterfly box?

I love you Mariah 4eva but no.
baglady25 9th-Aug-2012 09:47 pm (UTC)
I hope she has a colour called "Always Be My Baby" tbh
marywebgirl 9th-Aug-2012 09:51 pm (UTC)
If there's a "Fantasy" I'd have to get it just on principle.
lovinewan 9th-Aug-2012 09:51 pm (UTC)
As long as she includes a glitter one, I'm excited! I love the special edition OPI's. This is some of my recent collection...

Is that Crown Me Already? I bought 3 bottles of that after my original bottle broke. NGL, I fell on my knees & wept freely when it hit the floor. :\ I also wished I got a second bottle of Not Like The Movies from Katy's collection. SMH @ me.

Nice collection BTW! Polish Addicts unite!
lovinewan 9th-Aug-2012 10:17 pm (UTC)
Thanks! :) No, it's one of Nicki Minaji's. I want Crown me already though! I've seen pictures and it's SO pretty. I saw one just like it at Target from the Essie brand two days ago. Have you tried looking at any targets near you for the Katy Perry? Mine still carries Not like the movies. I just found Teenage Dream too, I was so excited.
livingsign 9th-Aug-2012 10:07 pm (UTC)
omg so much glitter...i love it
jeterluva 9th-Aug-2012 10:09 pm (UTC)
Those are my favorite ones as well. The Muppet collection was so perfect.
cerseilannister 9th-Aug-2012 10:14 pm (UTC)
i love glitter polishes idec
m3ts_ftw 9th-Aug-2012 10:52 pm (UTC)
very nice!
goofusgallant 9th-Aug-2012 10:59 pm (UTC)
ooo pretty!
heartlockedx 9th-Aug-2012 09:57 pm (UTC)
i love mariah and i love nail polish. i will buy the whole collection no matter how tacky it is.
jeterluva 9th-Aug-2012 10:10 pm (UTC)
Me too!
It's a perfect storm.
urizanegao 10th-Aug-2012 12:06 pm (UTC)
TRUTH.
joliebelle 9th-Aug-2012 09:59 pm (UTC)
So here for this.

anyone have any opinions on gelish vs opi gelcolor vs shellac? I had shellac last for about 6 days and I just had gelish done (I'm on one full day now)
mmmyesplease 9th-Aug-2012 10:00 pm (UTC)
OPI was a lot easier to remove than gelish. But now that gelish has more colors, I have a hard time picking a fave between the two.
joliebelle 9th-Aug-2012 10:01 pm (UTC)
Thanks :) My nails are in Gossip Girl rn...I'm loving it so far
jeterluva 9th-Aug-2012 10:11 pm (UTC)
The OPI gel was a lot easier to come off. I didn't need the chemical. After about 3 weeks I could peel it off all in one go.
mmmyesplease 9th-Aug-2012 10:00 pm (UTC)
I love OPI but it's so expensive and 8ty8beauty doesn't carry it anymore :( Maybe I will shell out for this, though, bc Mariah is heaven.

Trufax - I spent $50 yesterday on nail art items. It'll be super worth it though since that's how much I'd have to pay to get it done at a salon anyway.
dandyinmypants 9th-Aug-2012 10:03 pm (UTC)
I think I just found my new nail place, ONTD. $20 for a damn good pedi, and it's a five minute walk from my house. I was going up town to a place that charge $35 for no where near as good. The decor is also much nicer and the staff is a lot friendlier.
wonky 9th-Aug-2012 10:03 pm (UTC)
I like Zoya way better than OPI. /csb ....But I am putting on Floam right now. Ahhh, I've wanted this polish for so long. ;'D I'm so happy.
marshiebaby 9th-Aug-2012 10:09 pm (UTC)
OMG I HATE YOU SO MUCH RN! Floam is my dreamy polish. I never have any luck getting cool, popular indie polishes. I finally bought Sticks N Stones because it was a pain to even try to get Connect The Dots.
wonky 9th-Aug-2012 10:17 pm (UTC)
Gurrrl, have you signed up for updates from Ninja Polish on when it'll be back in stock? That's all I did and I got in before it sold out again! It goes faaast, though.
djc114 9th-Aug-2012 11:22 pm (UTC)
OOOhhhhh yeah lynderella is shit in my book now. There are so many awesome indie etsy ones now :)
manishapvt 9th-Aug-2012 11:03 pm (UTC)
I j started using Zoya after getting a sample in my BirchBox and I love it!!!1 I have my favorite OPI's but their newer formulas arent as good as before!!
iluvkidnappers 10th-Aug-2012 11:16 pm (UTC)
my friend just got floam lol
livingsign 9th-Aug-2012 10:09 pm (UTC)
i hope they have a "touch my body" color
marshiebaby 9th-Aug-2012 10:10 pm (UTC)
YAS OMG!
jeterluva 9th-Aug-2012 10:13 pm (UTC)
There's gonna be 2 collections!
I have wanted this for a while tbh.
katiese93 9th-Aug-2012 10:25 pm (UTC)
On the topic of nail stuff I just got my bundle monster stamp set today! I'm so excited to try them out except the actual stamper hasn't gotten here yet :/
m3ts_ftw 9th-Aug-2012 10:51 pm (UTC)
i love my bundle monster sets! so much cheaper than konad and works just as well
djc114 9th-Aug-2012 11:23 pm (UTC)
I have yet to master full nail stamps when you have to match up 2 stamps. Eep.
chihaya19 9th-Aug-2012 10:35 pm (UTC)
i hope there's a 'stay the night' and it's like a glittery black or dark blue
