Will never use anything else.

They brush on so smooth and dry evenly to a completely flawless finish. Makes even my amateur nail painting skills look good. So easy to use,endless colour selection, and they last so well without chipping. 100% recommend.

Bottles Galore

I have developed a slight addiction to OPI since I first encounted them a couple of years ago. It started with just one... it always does... now my collection is out of control. I have to say that I love the collections they bring out and the names of them are cute and funny. The bottles are robust... one has survived a drop with out consequence but I wouldn't want to risk a second fall... just in case. The brushes make the polishes apply smoothly and effortlessly with great spread and less lines.

I find the pigmentation is great (shade depending) and one coat will give an sheer coverage, and two usually enough to give bottle true tone (alpine white and The It shade of yellow may require 3 for instance).

The formulation dries fast and hardens well (although number of coats used will slow the process). Doesn't chip as easily as some other polishes and if maintained well can last up to a week (maintain by adding a fresh clear coat every 2nd day).

I love the range of colours and types of OPI, everything from textures and shimmers to chunky glitters and Matte; there really is such a huge range.

My favourite shades to date are: Alpine Snow Black Onyx Dutch ya just Love OPI and Black Cherry Chutney Oh and the Matte top coat because it literally doubles your nail polish collection.

Least Favourite bottle is "I juggle Men" it really has No staying power and crazed after a day... wrecking the great job I had underneath it. Was highly disappointed with this but is the only one I have ever found that has done it.

Tips: Be bold and creative <3

Pink Friyay!!

Definitely love, love, love this nail polish! I love the creamy consistency it has, the colour is absoltuely beautiful its in a beautiful strawberry milkshake meets pink watermelon bubblegum shade. It can compliment any skin tone. This is a definite statement colour. It paints beautifully and coats extremely well. It is also long lasting.

Tips: A top and base coat is the key to longer lasting nail polish and also reduces the chance of chipping- worls fine n its own also. this tip is just incase you want to keep the polish on longer.

Fave

Opi is my favourite nail polish by far. I own a few of them and although they are quite expensive if you wait for a sale you can get them for quite a good price. They don't have that artificial smell that mis nail polishes have and the colour is absolutely opaque. They have a great range of colours and sets:)

Tips: Use a base coat and finish it off with a top coat

OPI

I recently bought into this product and i absolutely love it! Regardless if i get it done at a salon or do it myself. I do find it takes awhile for some colours to dry and you must use a good base coat and a top coat. I always double up my colour layer to make sure it is even before applying a top coat for a perfect manicure.

Tips: Invest in a good top coat and base coat for a perfect manicure

FAVOURITE

This red is the perfect vintage red for me. I've found it doesn't chip as much as other OPI red's i've used. You can get away with using one coat of this if you're in a hurry because it isnt see through. The only thing about it is that it is a nightmare to take off as the deep red colour stains the nails although this is expected with any dark colour so its not a big deal. 9/10 recommend

Tips: Dont use more than two coats

Love OPI

I love this product, love the colors, not so crazy about the price. I find myself reapplying every few days because the color rubs off on my paperwork.

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.

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.
