I love the colour range, you will be able to find any colour you want! My only disappointment is that I don't think they last as long as some of the cheaper nail polishes I have. Maybe I am doing something wrong. I still buy these when I can afford it though.

OPI Nail Lacquer Review
Reviews
I have a lot of Opi. And I've loved them all until last week when I picked up 'in the spotlight pink'. In the bottle it looks a beautiful baby pink- which I thought would be good for everyday wear. However, when I put it on it was the most see through nail polish I've ever used. Even after four coats my white/pink of my natural nail was easily seen. I would reccomend so many other colours - just not this one.
Tips: Always wear a top coat and a base coat to make it lady longer an protect your natural nails.
For me for the price they are, I'd hope it would stay on longer. I have cheaper brands that last longer.
There are sooo many colours to pick from which is great. The bottles are nice shapes and easy to hold while painting and holding the bottle at the same time.
I really need to start trying more brands on my nails.
When first seeing a picture of " Got the blues for red " it looked quite copper toned. But after using it, it is such a deep red/burgundy colour almost blood toned. In my opinion O.P.I nail polishes are fantastic with wear, i also find the brush heads are great with applying an even coat. I would defiantly like to buy this in the future and would recommend to anyone wanting to buy as it is such a great colour and perfect with winter coming.
Love it!
Tips: Never shake nail polish as it creates air bubbles always roll between your palms.
And for a thick coat without it looking raised or bumpy always apply in thin coats allowing to dry
So i'm in two minds about this polish. I have the matte version, it looks really cute but being matte it chips so easily and if you put top coat on its no longer matte defeating the point of getting a matte nail polish. To be honest I just stick to getting my nails done in shellac now - last for two weeks and my nails are so much stronger.
Probably the best thing about OPI is their vast selection of colours and various finishes! the bottles are a nice size, the brush is comfortable to hold and applies really well over the nail. Application really depends on the shade and I have found the polishes I own dry reasonably quickly which is a big thing for me. I don't buy these at full price, although the polishes are lovely I don't think they WOW for the most part.
Tips: When it comes to a splurge on nails, I think you'd be better to invest in a nice topcoat like Seche Vite which penetrates all of your polish layers, turning it into one solid layer that dries quickly and solid.
Too dull for me - loved the colour, but I bought it wanting a really gold-y gold. It didn't look right with my gold accessories for the evening. Would wear again, but not with other gold in my outfit. More a casual gold, if that's a thing.
As a brand I love OPI, I was gifted the Top 10 minis Gift Set and have used every single colour. They last at least a week without chipping and I am IN LOVE with their nude shades. Can't fault!
Tips: Use a top and base coat to ensure a long lasting result
OPI - synonymous with "quality"
I've used OPI nail polishes for years & I have very few complaints! The colour selection is fantastic (although there are still a few colour variations that they never seem to get right in my opinion)
The collections that they come out with are usually beautiful, my absolute favourite was the Pirates of the Caribbean Collection . The colours were simply beautiful (think sea-foam green & gorgeous purples)
The few misses that I've had with OPI include the dreadful "shatter" polishes. Awful & tacky, they should never have seen the light of day! + every so often I'll purchase a beautiful looking colour only to find that it's so sheer that even after 4 or 5 coats I can still see my natural nail beneath several streaky layers =(
OPI does fantastic glitter polishes, they are super long lasting & stunning.
If I had to choose a favourite polish brand OPI would not be my first choice, if you had asked me several years ago I would have shouted its praises all over town but not so much anymore thanks to brands such as China Glaze, Essie & Orly. All of which surpass OPI in terms of quality, colour selection & longevity =)
Tips: Steer clear of OPI polishes at the big bucket sales/make up and perfume sales - they are often knock offs! Stick to purchasing them Farmers or pharmacies
I think this has been the most long lasting nail polish I have ever used. They have an excellent selection of Colours, and it is really hard wearing. I have found it to last a lot longer than other brands throughout lots of hand washing, gardening, and even working on the car. Would definitely recommend to others, although the only let down is the price, being rather expensive for just one bottle.
Tips: Use a base coat and more than one clear coat for longer lasting wear. I use three coats of colour also.
