When Monkeys Fly...

This polish is SOOO cute, loved the mix of gold and silver, the bottle is a great size - as always with OPI, and the polish was long lasting.

Tips: Apply coats untill you have the desired density in sparkle, can be used as a top coat over another colour or just on its own if you want some glitter fever!

OPI Can't find my Czechbook?

This colour is amazing!! Adds pop to any outfit and brightens your day, you will however need to add atleast 3 coats to get good coverage, overall- drying time did not take long, with a top coat this lasted 7 days without peeling- a little chipped but nothing major. Would definitely buy again and recommend to anyone.

Tips: Add 3 coats, apply top coat for longer lasting coverage.

Gorgeous but not my thing!

I love OPI! Colours and selection are gorgeous and they're always putting out new, innovative products. This liquid sand polish looks absolutely beautiful in the bottle, a stunning blue full of glitter that catches the light.

I received the product two days before the review was due so I was up against time and couldn't judge the longevity of the product. However, I've commented on look and application =)

Given the title of the polish I was weary of the application, thinking it may be gritty and difficult to apply. But the polish applied just as easily as any OPI nail polish. I was impressed!

With the first coat applied I felt a bit deflated as it looked washed out and pale and not awesome at all! But I waited patiently for it to dry (which didn't take long at all) and upon application of the second coat, I got the full effect of the nail polish! It looks stunning on and looks just like a blue, glittery sandpaper - very pretty!

Given its extreme colour and glitter I wouldn't wear it on my fingernails but on my toenails, particularly during summer, it's a definite winner!

Tips: If you don't like the slightly rough feel of the nail polish, put a top coat over it to smooth it over =)

Gorgeous nails...but not for a long time!

I had heard about OPI's new liquid sand technology and I was very excited to try it out. I am a big OPI fan and think they can do no wrong but I was a little disappointed in this. I'm not usually a fan of blue nail polishes but I have to admit this was a very pretty colour especially with the reflective glitter in it. You definitely need two or three coats to get a good finish. I wasn't really a fan of how rough my nails felt with the finish but it was very pretty to look at and I might try putting a top coat on next time to smooth down the texture.

About two days after I applied the polish it started to chip at the top of my nails, pretty much across all of them and I hadn't been doing any harsh cleaning or putting my nails through much so I was really surprised that it came off so quick. By day five it was looking awful so I took it off. I didn't use a base coat and it didn't stain my nails which was a big plus considering it was a blue polish.

I think I would use it again for a night out, special occasion or maybe with a top coat to see if would last longer.

Tips: I thought it would be really tough to take off with nail polish remover like some glittery polishes are, but it was surprisingly easy, I just held a cotton square soaked with remover over the nail for 5 seconds then wiped away.

OPI I'm All Ears

I was SO excited when i received my invite to try this product! As a training nail technician i am obviously obsessed with NAIL POLISH! I really loved its beautiful colour, with the added spakle. LOVE & ADORE this product... need I say more? :)

Tips: When applying dont have too much on the brush as this product is very thin & runny, it does drip and run into the sides of your nail. Always apply a base coat to protect your natural nail & a top coat to prevent chipping :)

Stunning Colour with a Great Finish.

When OPI's Im All Ears arrived from the Minnie Mouse collection I was rather surprised by the maturity and dept of colour with the glitter giving it a youthful glow.

Upon application the layers where very thin so I applied a few coats to get a striking finish. Three coats and I have the perfect finish.

This polish was versatile easily going from day to night and I really liked the effect it had in the light.

Picture doesnt do the colour justice

So I opened the package and saw that the nail varnish is a different colour to what it looks like on the photo! It's better! Magenta colour with lots of sparkles it gave my nails a kind of iridescent glossy look. Never used OPI before so wanted to see how it compared to other nail varnishes, I found it quite runny on first coat the varnish would separate to the side of my nails so had to use a good three coats to get the exact look, two coats the colour was lovely but three the colour as darker but spot on very glossy looking with just the right amount of sparkle!! As a mum of three my nails do go through a lot so I got slight chipping on day 4. I wouldn't use this as an every day nail varnish more for special occasions or nights out or on holiday! Oh and in photos my nails looked amazing! Definitely great value for money and when removed no stained nails like i get with my cheapy nail polishes!! You get what you pay for! :-D Lots of compliments on my nails people saying oooh i'd actually buy that! I didnt need to use my normal base coat or top coat as didn't stain nails and took four days to slightly chip!

Tips: Apply three coats for an amazing finish and make sure leave plenty of time drying in between coats,

OPI

The nail polishes are just devine, they are smooth and go on so nicely, there is no glugging around the neck of the bottle, the only issues I have is the cost, although I do believe compared to other products the price is acceptable, I am just on a very low budget, would buy a lot more if I could afford them.

I'm all ears is easy on the eye!

Had wanted a sophisticated shade that would take me from day to night and this colour certainty does! I had reservations when i saw the photos prior to receiving the product that it may be too"blingy" for day time but that wasn't the case at all. I felt confident and sophisticated whilst wearing it and it matched my wardrobe no matter what I wore. I did find it quite thin and runny on application and it needed a good three coats to even out the colour,unlike some of my other OPI colors which are wearable after two coats. But after the third coat I was not disappointed! The depth was beautiful. It did wear slightly on edges after only two days but my job is very hard on my hands anyway. Dry time was great.

Tips: Don't apply too much to brush. It does seem runnier than normal for OPI but the colour makes up for that!

loved it!!

I found that it went on beautifully, there was no blobs or streaks it was nice and smooth. There was no strong smell that you can get with some brands of polish which was nice. The polish was touch dry withing 30 seconds, and completely dry in 5 mins. The colour was surprising to me. I expected a really dark deep plum, but found that it has an almost metalic sheen to it, and is quite a bright shade depending on the light. This colour is perfect for brightening up a dull winter day, and will go with most colours in your wardrobe. I applied it on Sat, and after lots of dishes, looking after a baby, loads of washing folding, sorting out fire wood and other jobs that aren't the best for nail polish, it took untill this morning (monday) to get a couple of small chips on three nails....that is without a clear top coat. All in all pretty impressed.
