Sunday, May 9th, 2010 OPI What's with the Cattitude, Comparisons
Happy Mother's Day! Hope you all had a beautiful and relaxing day. Ever since the release of Finger Paints Blissfully Blue, I've been attracted to pastel blues lately. What's with the Cattitude hails from OPI's Shrek Forever After and it's a really fabulous sky blue that's not so milky.
Like most of the pastels from Shrek, application was tricky - but I was determined this make work. The first two coats were thin, streaky and a bit uneven. To avoid baldness and bare spots, try to use the 3 swipe method on these and avoid dragging your brush to much. On my last coat, I usually grab a heavier amount of polish in hopes of an even application. Remember to let each coat dry completely before reapplying.
Check out a Pastel Blue Comparison below.
What's with the Cattitude misses the pastel boat by just a hair. As you can see, it's not as milky as Havana Dreams or Take me to your Chateau and much bluer than Blissfully Blue.
Did pick up any goodies from The Shrek Collection? What do you think of this sky blue pastel? Have a wonderful night!

With the name of this on I was really expecting an Orange Tabby color. I was dissapointed. The color does not relate to the name at all. :(

Thanks for that comp... so helpful! I was considering picking up $OPI Havana Dreams, but now that I see how close it is to CC Take Me to Your Chateau I think I'll be fine without it!

Hi Keerthi,
You're very welcome! Yes, I agree! Plus Take Me To Your Chateau is soo much easier to apply than Havana Dreams, which is thin, sheer like.

Great tips on applying the nail polish, thanks. I love the colour, I think it's really bold but I don't think it would suit me at all, I prefer greens to blues.

Ooh, wow! Love OPI's What's With the Cattitude? on you. I have that (along with FingerPaints Blissfully Blue) and this one was, surprisingly enough, easy for me to apply. Now, while I do love this sky blue, I was kinda expecting a neutral orange loaded with goldish-yellow chunky glitter to distinguish itself from all those orange base/gold shimmers I've been seeing A LOT of lately.
