Warm & Fozzie

So what's Warm and Fozzie? 
This!
OPI Warm & Fozzie
I quickly went to the beauty section at Winners in Metrotown today and discovered that they have a few shades from the OPI Muppets Collection which features polishes that are all glittery. They were $7.99 a bottle. From what I remember they only had Warm & Fozzie, Meep-Meep-Meep, Fresh Frog of Bel Air, Divine Swine, and Gettin' Miss Piggy with It. I kind of want to go back and buy the Miss Piggy shade which is a red-pink shade. I chose Warm & Fozzie since I'll probably wear it the most. 

The bad? The bottles are kind of scuffed. You can see it on the top left portion of the bottle pictures above but here's another picture: 

Swatches:
One coat, two coats, three coats
Sorry, pictures are a bit blurry since I used my phone. As you can tell the first coat is really sheer and a bit streaky. I'm waiting for my finger nails to grow longer at the moment and with one coat the tips were very visible. Second and third coats aren't photographed well here, but even after the second coat my nail tips were still a bit visible. After the third coat, all is well and the polish is finally opaque! 

Thoughts?
It's very bronzy. I like the sparkly-ness. I'm not sure how in love with color I am. I think I was swayed by the glitter, my new obsession. From what I've read online, other bloggers will agree that using any of these shades requires at least 3 coats for full coverage and effect.I think I want to go back and buy the Miss Piggy tomorrow since I'll be at Metrotown again. Boyfriend will not approve haha. 

As part of my promise, some more stuff is slowing rolling in! What came today? My Sigma F80 Kabuki Brush!
It came with the little red bag and a care instruction card!
I'm excited to try this out. I apply my foundation using my hands and this brush is supposed to your makeup application "flawless" so I hope I see a good change. After reading a number of reviews from other bloggers I have high hopes!



The brush is $16 + shipping which works out to be pretty cheap (~$3) and if you Google there are usually 10% off codes :) 

Last of all here's my outfit of the day:
As I mentioned in my last post, I decided to keep the TOMS, so here they are. I pretty much paired it with a similar outfit as I did when I was trying them on.

Not really sure why I took my shoes off in the second picture lol. I was intending to show the lace detailing on my tank.

  1. Warm and Fozzie is so bronze... I kind of like it even though I usually wouldn't wear those types of nail colours. Glad you decided to keep the TOMS!

  2. I have Warm & Fozzie and I love that shade! I also have that F80 brush too and I've been using it to apply my foundation ever since I got it, but I heard the round top kabuki from the same collection is really good for foundation as well. I'm thinking of picking up that one next :)

  3. i remember seeing those nail polishes at winners as well but at the winners on lougheed hwy near brentwood mall. they sold the 4 pack muppet mini set for $12.99 =) and the bigger bottles too like what you have.

    i wanted to buy meep meep meep but i think i have a shiney red colour and i don't like to buy similar colours (unless ive ran out lol).

  4. I just picked up the same bottle of OPI from Winners too (on Cambie)! I personally really like bronze and browns as it looks nice against my skin and isn't too far out of my comfort zone :)

  5. Ahh the Sigma F80! I got mine a month ago and I hardly use it cause it's a b*tch to clean T___T
    I'll probably end up getting the other kabuki brushes though since everyone raves about them~

  6. Haha love for Warm & Fozzie all around! I think the color grew on me some more. I usually wear light pinks or sheer polish or have a French mani so I guess that's why I thought it was kinda strange seeing my nails a different color!

    How sucky is this brush to clean!? I think I saw a blogger write about how her's started shedding after she washed it :( I really hope that doesn't happen to mine. I used it for the first time today and I love it. I think I'm gonna order some more brushes soon.
