OPI Nail Lacquer Review

I think this us a really nice gold shade. I have another which is a bit too yellow, this one doesn't seen gaudy. Love that you can build it up from sheer to opaque. Up to OPI's great standards :)

This is another great OPI which offers great colour pay off with your choice of how to customize it. This can be worn with 1-3 layers of the nail polish itself to give scattered sparkle to full impact dense silver glitter. This can also be layered on a black polish to give a dense black finish with added sparkle. It does chip easier due to the texture the glitter gives but because of how cute it looks this does not worry me. Over all for the price, this product is a great buy which can add a bit of custom bling to any nail.

Opi is top brand nail polish. Always goes on well and lasts when applied correctly, using base and top coat. True to colour.

I love this colour, I had been wanting it for ages then found it for $15 at the warehouse a few months ago. Although I really love this colour, there are better pinks out there in the OPI range.

This is definitely a go-to red colour, it is very bright, yet if you only use one or two coats it can be very pretty and more subtle! I love it because it is a very youthful colour and looks great on both fingers and toes! Unfortunately I have issues with nail polish chipping, and this one is no different which is a shame, but I doubt it is the fault of the actual nail polish, as OPI is such a high quality brand.

When speaking in a general sense, OPI nail polishes are some of the highest quality polishes available. They are highly pigmented, last well and are available in some seriously eye catching shades. However, particular shades can be better or worse than others.

My current favourite OPI shade is My Favourite Ornament, a super sparkly gold glitter. It was a limited edition from the Mariah Carey range that was released just before Christmas last year. It is the most glittery gold I have come across and two coats covers your entire nail in glitter. It is certainly eye catching and attracts a lot of compliments. It looks wonderful as a full set or as a feature nail. What makes this polish stand out over other OPI glitter polishes is its lasting power. Unlike other OPI glitter polishes this one doesn't peel off in big chunks. It lasts really well and is simply a slight annoyance to remove.

Another stunning colour is from the latest Gwen Stefani collection and it is a matte black. It is very bold, beautiful and totally matte however this only lasts a single day. Although it doesn't chip, it fades to a dirty black/grey and needs extra coats daily to remain black. I was quite disappointed with this colour as that isn't something that you find out until you have purchased it.

Overall OPI has some stunning colours at are unlike any others. However, for standard colours I prefer Mavala polishes as they are more affordable, even more pigmented and equally as lovely.

OPI is always coming out with creative new names, collections and colours. The product is amazing to use and is always a must have in your beauty bag! It applies smoothly and the finish is nice and even. Although I did find that it chipped easily but that can be easily fixed by adding another layer. I also found that the last bit of nail polish in the bottle tends to become a bit chunky, this makes it harder to apply and the finish isn't as good. But overall OPI is an amazing product that I highly suggest to every nail polish lover!

OPI is often considered the golden standard when it comes to nail polish- with a price tag to match. And while this is true for most colors- it is not across the board. Some colors are very subpar in terms of quality and end finish.

The best a person can do is to read individual reviews first for the color they are interested in.

However, I agree that OPI does not stain and they come up with some really cool colors. Look out for the 3 for 2 sales that occur often to help with costs.
