OPI Nicki Minaj Collection: Metallic 4 Life and Save Me

Nicki Minaj teamed up with OPI and created a collection of new colors, very reflective of rap superstar herself.  The six piece collection colors are inspired by songs from Nicki Minaj:

Did It On 'Em - fluorescent lime green
Fly - neon sky blue
Metallic 4 Life - shimmery gunmetal gray
Pink Friday - iridescent Barbie pink
Save Me - rainbow glitter-infused light blue
Super Bass Shatter - deep plum, shatter polish 

The Nicki Minaj collection is due out early January 2012.  I actually came across the display at a local beauty supply store the day after Christmas.  I'll be quit honest and say that when I first saw the promotional pictures for this collection, I wasn't really excited by it.  Colors were nice, but I didn't feel like they were really my style.  I may be young at heart, but I'm not young enough to pull off these colors.  Once I saw the display, I sort of changed my mind.  I'm all shattered & crackled out, so although the new magenta purple Shatter was pretty, I passed.  The bright colors were very fitting for this collection, but they were just that, a little too bright for me.  Plus, they didn't seem totally unique to me, and somewhat dupe-able.  I did end up grabbing two colors that I found to be interesting and more unique from the collection.
