There are quite a few very popular sheer OPI nail polishes, and two of these are Bubble Bath and Put It in Neutral.
If both are pinkish mauve, they’re quite different, both in the bottle and applied on the nails.
So, if you’re interested in getting a new sheer, nude nail polish, keep reading and you’ll find all about Put It in Neutral and Bubble Bath!
Sheer Nails: OPI Bubble Bath vs Put It in Neutral Comparison Swatches

Here’s what OPI says about the Bubble Bath nail polish:
Sweet candy pink nail polish.
And here’s the Put It in Neutral nail polish description:
I’m driven to get my hands on this pinkish beige.
Why Did I Buy OPI Bubble Bath and Put It in Neutral?

I first got Bubble Bath alongside Funny Bunny: I knew both are two of the best selling OPI colors, and really wanted to try them.
I’d seen online that Bubble Bath had seen both its color and formula changed, but since it’s such a popular color, I went for it.

As for Put It in Neutral, it’s a color I got alongside Passion and Bare My Soul, which are two of my other favorite sheer nail polishes from OPI.
At that point, I really just wanted to find out what the very best sheers were, as I was deep in my sheer/neutral phase (and still am).

Is There a Big Difference Between OPI Bubble Bath and Put It In Neutral?

If both Bubble Bath and Put It in Neutral are sheer pink, there’s indeed a big difference between both.
Bubble Bath now has more of a peachy undertone to it, and is slightly sheerer than Put It in Neutral.
Put It in Neutral is more of a milky pink nail polish with mauve undertones, which I find gorgeous on my fair olive skin.
I can see Bubble Bath suiting neutral/warm skin tones better, and Put It in Neutral neutral/olive/cool skin tones better.

OPI Bubble Bath vs Put It in Neutral: Final Thoughts

When it comes to the application process, I’ve said it before and will say it again…
I think Bubble Bath is a disaster that remains streaky no matter how many layers you put on.
The soft color would make for the perfect spring OPI color if it weren’t for that ever-so-streaky feature; what a shame, considering the price point!
Put It in Neutral, on the other side, is amazingly glossy, with a thin veil of muted pink color, from the very first coat.

It evens out beautifully and literally makes for one of my favorite OPI nail polishes of all time, along with Pompeii Purple, Achieve Grapeness, and Black Cherry Chutney.
If given the choice between Bubble Bath and Put It in Neutral, and could only purchase one (again), I’d go for Put It in Neutral over and over again.

Sheer Nails: OPI Bubble Bath vs Put It in Neutral Comparison Swatches

Hopefully, this comparison will have helped you choose the best sheer for you.
OPI has lots of amazing sheer, nude, and neutral nail polishes to choose from, and I have to admit that Put It in Neutral is, and forever will remain a go-to for me.

However, if you’re more into opaque nude, brown and mauve colors, I’d definitely tell you to look into three specific colors.
They are the gorgeous, oh, so gorgeous Tickle My France-y, You Don’t Know Jacques and Barefoot in Barcelona.
All three are some of the most popular OPI nail polishes, and there’s no wondering why!
Until next time!
