The best colour range!

I have got the Wizard of oz minis and around 10 full size ones in various colours from pale pink, white, reds and dark green and a few liquid sands which I love and adds some great texture to a manicure. I did find them quite expensive for what they are - nail polish! But now that farmers have lowered the price and they quite often have two for deals etc I find my collection growing. The brushes are the best that I have tried and so far none in my collection have gone gluggy or turned bad. Opi have definitely got the best colour collection out there and with frequent new Collections coming out there's always more to choose from.

Tips: Keep an eye out for farmers deals and you earn beauty points too.

Good pproduct but not worth the hype or rrp

I have quite a few OPI nail polishes in my collection, 20 in fact 10 full size 10 minis, and I do and will continue to use them, but I won't be recommending them to my friends. The good thing about OPI nail polish is there colour range, every color you could possibly think of OPI has, but I dont think its worth the price and I personally think they are over rated. I brought my OPI Take Ten minis from a sale for $35 and 10 full size OPI's from trademe in a bulk sale for $50. The only pros I can say about OPI is the colour range, the brush and that they don't go gloopy and thicker over time. The cons, I find the consistency to vary, The quality of chipping/staying power/ opaqueness vary between colour. For example i have the colour Mod About You (light blue based pink, think M.A.C St Germain in Nail Polish form) and you only need 2 coats to get full, opaque strong color payoff, unlike Heart Throb which looks like a sheer strawberry milkshake colour even after 3 layers. I just think there are better or the same quality of nail polishes on the market that are cheaper, like for example Jordana, Sally Hansen, Revlon Nailpolishes are damn worth it.

Tips: Shop around, buy off trademe or wait for NZ Sale to have them in stock, they are not worth $23 except maybe My Fav Ornament which is the only shade i would spend $23 on untill i find a great dupe. Its a beautiful, opaque fine gold glitter, last ages

The name is the best part

There not many OPI colours that I don't like.But this one unfortunately seemed to under perform.

To be able to use it on its own you really need to layer it up and even then its still not very noticeable. I only use this as a sheen over other colour when I'm wanting a different effect.

The wear on it is still good but wouldn't recommend this one unless you are wanting it for a cover coat of another colour.

Not exactly what I was expecting

This is the first polish I have tried with the sand effect and was quite happy with it. It goes on easily just like the normal OPI polishes and lasts a couple of weeks. It definitely requires two or more coats as the colour is quite washed out. It does take a little getting used to with the different texture. Be wary of wearing clothes that snag easily as this polish does tend to pull on fabrics.

Great colour to make your nails pop

I love this colour for summer! It just makes my nails look elegant and feminine with a little bit of edge. Opi always is lovely and thick and lasts longer on me than other brands I have. I like that it feels like quality as you apply it.

Tips: Apply at night before bed to really allow them to dry without getting chipped early

LOVE IT

The easiest nail polish to apply and it doesn't try too fast. Some nail polish brands that I've tried with equal coat quality either dry super fast or take forever then end up putting layer upon layer and it peels off (probably because I'm not patient enough).

OPI has so many different variety in shades and finishes you really can't go wrong. It's also the nail polish I find the best when doing nail art, such as marbling!

Very happy!

Do I even Need to Say?

OPI is THE nail polish brand. When you think about nail polish, OPI is the first brand you think about.

Comes in multiple colours, shades, types, packs. Shimmers, Matte, Glitter, Clear Coats.

The brush glides over the nail & leaves you almost with a streak free layer. You might need to do 2-3 coats to get it perfect with no streaks but 2 thin layers should be fine with any sort of OPI nail polish.

Great formula, always lasts a long time & colours always look great and have a good depth to them

Never have enough OPI

My nail polish box is full of them. Love the flat brush which makes it so easy to apply. The colours are beautiful and shine. The smell isn't as bad as most polish which help with my two little girls that enjoy pretty colours on their nails during the school holidays.

Tips: Wait for a sale and go crazy :-)

MOD About You

When I applied the polish it felt so beautiful when it was fully dry, so smooth I actually kept feeling my nails all day haha. It is a beautiful pastel pink colour and was very easy to apply and applied nice and evenly. It did however need 2 coats for a full coverage as one was not enough. I did not have enough time for a clear coat but it didn't chip/dent all day. Over all I am very happy with OPI, they did an awesome job with this nail polish! :)

Tips: Don't do what I did and add a clear coat to make it even shinier and to make it last forever :)

Top Brand

Ok, let's be real. OPI is like THE nail polish brand. Everybody knows it's amazing, and everyone knows why. All the colours I've tried have been a really good formula, really opaque (sometimes even in one coat, which is amazing) and some beautiful colours. They don't tend to chip easily, especially with a great top coat.

My absolute favourite go-to colour is Taupe-less Beach, which is part of the Brazil Collection, I think. It reminds me of Lime Crime's Cashmere in nail polish form. It is amazing. Plus it's pretty opaque in one coat. Not completely but you could definitely get away with it if you were in a rush.

The only one colour I have found that I don't like is a beautiful colour, but a crappy formula. It's called You're Such a Budapest and it's a beautiful periwinkle blue/light violet with really subtle shimmer in it. Ugh, it is so gorgeous. The problem I have is that it literally takes at least 3 coats to be opaque/not streaky. I don't have time for that so I never reach for it :(

All in all, this is a fantastic brand with so many amazing colours and pretty consistantly awesome formulas.
