OPI

An amazingly good quality product. These nail polishes are more expensive than others that I have puchased but they are such good quality. I buy them when on sale and that makes them really worth the price. Compared to other products, I found OPI to be superior in all aspects. The product glides on smoothly, dries in no time and lasts longer than other brands I use. I find that I only need one coat and with a top coat it lasts ages and the product doesn't chip either.

Not for me

I have a few of these as I've either been given them or purchased them at a discounted price because I keep forgetting my opinion on them. My opinion is that I don't like them, so let me tell you why.

They're not cruelty free. Not that this is a big thing in my decision making at all, but I know for a lot of people that this IS a big thing. Another reason I don't like them is the staying power - with or without a base and top coat - I find they only last a few days, 3 at most before I start to see chips.

I have a few shades, but the names escape me. I have a lovely red that reminds me of Dorothy's slippers, a blue that dries kind of like a sand (I especially hate this one), a very baby pink and a shimmery sheer white (I like this one but it's super hard to remove).

They apply nicely and I find the formula mostly opaque but the fact that they don't last more than 3 days on my nails is a bit of a shame and well, I prefer other brands.

Great nail polish

OPI is the only nail polish I buy now, after my sister in law got me addicted to them, she had a collection of about 30 nail polishes and I was really impressed with them! OPI have a great range of colours and are always coming out with more amazing nail polishes all the time. I really like how quickly they dry on your nails and they cover well with just one coat but it always is best to do two coats to make it last longer. They never leave my nails discoloured after removing the polish like I have found with others. They glide on smooth and don't clump up. I found them to be quite expensive so it's great when you can get them on sale.

OPI nail lacquer

Fantastic product if you can afford to fork out over $20 for a bottle of polish! If you are lucky you may be able to get selective shades during big bucket sale or at outlet makeup stores online. I do love the richness of the colour n th shine and the longevity of wear but I'd rather not pay full retail price - only buy these when they are on sale to be honest.

I love this bold vampy colour!

This is one of my winter favourites. I love how it's a deep shade that's red with a tinge of sparkly fuschia to make it seem like a really gorgeous jewel tone. The burgundy colour that results is a great pairing with a dark purple or oxblood lippy.

Two thin coats were enough for an opaque finish, which is awesome for an impatient person like me. i also found this really long lasting! It didn't chip until about a week in, and I'm really rough with my hands day-to-day so that's really good.

I would definitely recommend this as a gorgeous winter shade.

Tips: The key with this is definitely applying very thin coats. I once slopped on too much and couldn't get it to smooth and not have bubbles no matter how much I tried.

gives you salon quality nails

Opi is one of my favourite nail brands, if not my favourite. I have at least 10-15 opi nail polishes in my collection and I've only had an issue with one. I really like the formula, which is a good consistency, not too thick so that its gloopy and tacky, and not too thin. The formula is really smooth and easy to apply. There is no streaking or bubbling.

The colours are opaque and vivid. I always apply two coats of colour with a base coat underneath and I find this is enough to get a solid colour on your nails. The polish has a glossy finish to it but I always like to put a top coat in top as well. I find that this polish, with top and base coat, will set at least a week before chipping.

The brush is a bit bigger than your standard nail polish brush. The brush has a flat shape which I like as it means you can paint you whole nail in three nice strokes. I hate the tiny nail polish brushes that you have to apply with a million strokes which causes the polish to become streaky.

Overall I really like these polishes as they are long lasting, there is a huge colour range, and they are really easy to apply. I definitely recommend these polishes and will purchase more colours.

Great quality, great range of colour and texture

Although OPI is one of the pricier polishes here in NZ, its worth spending that bit extra. They have a great range of colours, constantly being updated, and lots of fun textures like sand, glitter, etc. I find OPI seems to apply smoothly, and lasts longer than most other brands I use, and two coats will do the trick nicely.

OPI Nail Polish - Review

These are great nail polishes. I got given one of mine as a gift and I love it! However I just don't like the price.

The bottles are big and the colour range is great however I just can't justify the price. Over $20 for a nail polish is quite ridiculous for me, especially if I won't wear it often or at all.

These have a nice brush and they apply opaque in two coats. Mine dried pretty fast too, which is always really useful to me. It lasted all week with a few small chips, which was impressive.

I got given a gold-bronze colour for my birthday and despite it being such a gorgeous colour and great formula I just can't bring myself to repurchase for the price.

Super long lasting

OPI nail polishes have the best application brushes. They are nice and wide and make it easy to cover your entire nail nice and evenly.

They have a MASSIVE colour range and have heaps of limited edition collections for movies etc. which is really cool.

I find I get at least 3 days wear from most OPI polishes, which for me is quite good.

There are a few different finishes available - matte, sand, normal. I have tried the matte and sand ones and I didn't like them, but the normal ones are super shiny and glossy looking.

Tips: Keep an eye out for cool LE collections!

Opi polish

Can not fault this product , goes on easily with great coverage, fast drying , last a long time on false nails (I take it off as it grows out rather than chips off) . Not as strong smelling as some polishes.
