OPI Nail Lacquer Review

I love OPI, being a Nail Technician I have always worked with this Nail Polish brand and a few others, I love all the variety of shades to go with different clothes, emotions, personalities the list goes on, the polish is hard wearing either on your natural nails, gels, acrylic etc. Also I have found it always dried rather fast, so big thumbs up from me for this product.

I finally bought me an OPI nail polish as the ones I were using were not great at all and chipping too often. I'm not a nail addict as I apply makeup all the time and don't like them getting in the way but as soon as I tried this stuff I put it back on after it started chipping. I applied two coats and it lasted like a week without chipping and I got heaps of compliments. From there this is the only brand I will buy :)

I find that with the use of a base and top coat, this brand of nail polish remains chip-free for atleast a week. There is a great selection of colours and the quality of the formula is great. Most colours apply smoothly, and only take a few coats to get an even coverage. The formulas also dry quite fast which is always a bonus. So although it may be a little more expensive, it is definitely worth the price.

I really love OPI. The range of colours allows you to do different things with you nails. The colour dries out quickly if you don't use it regularly or shake it regularly so would recommend shaking the bottle every so often.

OPI is so awesome because there are so many colours to choose from! Definately lasts longer without chippping compared to other brands which is also a bonus :)

This was the first liquid sand that I bought and I really like it. One coat was so opaque, which shocked me as the others I tried were more sheer. Two coats was perfect. I love how forgiving liquid sands are, so they're easy to fix if you smudge it. I felt like it stayed on my nails quite well, I always use a base coat (Orly Bonder). If you want to maintain the matte-like finish, but without the texture, you can use a matte top coat.

Totally love OPI and all is different colour choices, not to mention the hilarious quirky names. Definitely a top of the line brand, even I manage to keep it chip free for the msot part!

OPI has a huge array of colours ... So many fab options that its hard to choose just one! I find if I use base & top coat it lasts 5-7 days before chipping, if I dont use base & top coat it only lasts 3-5 days! I have also found it only lasts around 6-8months once opened as it goes really thick! Its a reliable polish that I would always recommend to my friends.

I love the range of colours and how they don't get gloopy easily. Unfortunately they do tend to chip after a couple of days, especially if you get your hands wet quite often. Alternatively, I have had issues with the glitters- purely because they are difficult to take off! Other than that, love love love them!

I have quite the collection of OPI nail lacquers (I was lucky enough to get them at cost price when managing a Salon). I absolutely love them, and you really can't beat the range of colours OPI offer.

I have had most of my lacquers for near on 5 years; they have even travelled with me around the globe on multiple occasions and are still in good usable condition (not gluggy, thick or hard).

The lacquer is a perfect consistency - not too thick or too thin, so with most colours you only need to apply 2 coats (some light/sheerer colours may need 3). The brush is a good length and width, and makes application fast, smooth and easy. OPI lacquers are self-leveling, so they dry even and streak free.

OPI are known for the quirky name they give to each shade. My colour of the moment (it's been a long moment!) is Mod About You. It's a solid candy-floss/baby pink from the Brights Collection.

I do find these a bit of a 'splurge' luxury product, so I really have to love a colour before I purchase it at full price. I've never been disappointed.
