OPI Fresh Frog of Bel Air

Hey guys! So this is one of my new polishes that I got for Christmas. My sister chose it for me! This colour is from the Muppets collection from Winter 2011. It is a glitter for sure. It is small hexagonal grass green glitters and larger hexagonal silver glitters, with a clear base. I find this colour difficult to apply, because it is very sheer due to the clear base. I wish the base had have been green, which is what I was expecting. I wanted a few of the other chunky glitters from this collection, but after seeing how this one turned out, to be quite honest, I don't think I'll be buying any more. Here is 1 coat:
 As you can see, it goes on really thin. In my opinion, like I said before, it should be a green base rather than a clear base. Here is 2 coats:
As you can see, still very thin. I don't think I would wear it like this. I don't think it's very flattering at all. I was going to try this with 3 coats, but I already knew it wouldn't turn out much better than this, so I didn't bother. I think this colour is best for layering. One day soon I will buy a nice green to layer this with, and maybe even try a jelly sandwich! I think this glitter would work well for that. So as I said, I think this is best for layering. So that's exactly what I did!  And since I got it on Christmas day, I layered it over a red for a festive manicure for my Christmas dinner. Here it is:
This is how it turned out. It was impossible for me to get a picture without the glitters looking totally black. This is the best I could do. This is OPI Fresh Frog of Bel Air layered over OPI Off With Her Red. I like the way it turned out, and I like this colour a lot more layered. Do you have any of the Muppets glitters? How do you like the way they turned out?
