Great Nails

I love the OPI nail polish selection. Great range of colours and longer lasting too. It is definitely value for money and I have started a collection of this valuable polish! Definitely highly recommended.

Beautiful

‘Not Like The Movies’ is a gorgeous nail polish that I’m very happy to have added to my collection.

It’s a really unique duo-chrome finish that looks like a dark olivey-green silver (I hope that makes sense!) in some lights, and has a purple-pink silver sheen in other lights. There is also a fine silver glitter/shimmer running through it. It is really pretty, and quite neutral overall, so it can be worn with heaps of different colours. I do agree with the review below that it is quite cool-toned, so it doesn’t always work perfectly with my warm undertones, but I still love it. If you have pink undertones I think it would be perfect!

It has the typical OPI formula: quite thin, and fairly opaque. I do find that this needs about 3 coats (sometimes I can get away with two), but because each coat goes on very thinly and smoothly it doesn’t actually take that long to dry, so I’m sort of okay with that. With a top coat, I find that this lasts me about 4-5 days before it starts to show wear and tear (bear in mind that I am very hard on all my nail polishes, so this is a decent amount of time for one to last!). I think that there are better formulas than OPI out there, or at least ones that are on-par but cheaper, but when it comes to really unique shades like this I don’t mind splurging a bit (plus OPI can be found on sale quite often).

Tips: This looks really lovely as an accent nail paired with a neutral polish (such as grey or cream) on the other nails.

OPI Is A Rainbow !!

I love the range of colours they have available!

Sadly tho these polishes don't wear well on me and always come off within about 2 days. They take forever to dry so i mostly always end up with a ding in one.

The brush is a good size and makes it very easy to apply. The colour pay off is great !! and i love the look of the bottles all lined up in my collection.

Tips: Get a good top coat !!!

Easy to apply sets fast and Lasts around a week before chipping. Really like the ver wide range if colors means im mire easily able to match the perfect polish to go with what evet colour scheme I have going on with my outfit.

Tips: Put fingertips in a bath of warm water help polish set faster

Pompeii Purple

I dont often paint my finger nails as I have terrible nails and tend to chip them easily but I love to have my toenails painted keeping them clean and tidy. I was a little hesitant to spend that much on a nail polish I had been buying the Sally Hansen Salon Manicure's that were a bit cheaper but then I saw this Pompeii Purple and thought it would look great on my tootsies for summer. I made sure I removed any trace of the previous nail polish and then painted them. The OPI bottle is a pretty little glass bottle with a nice long top handle, the brush is an average nail polish brush nothing special. I was pleasantly surprised by the pigment , the first coat was highly pigmented and you could have easily just left it at one coat it was quite a thick formula but not gluggy. I followed up wtih a second coat mainly out of habit. This managed to last me the week before showing any signs of wear and tear (even through changing shoes from gym to work each day). Overall I was really happy with this polish it lasted well and good colour pigment. I will be buying more shades of this for my toes this summer.

Tips: You wont need more than one coat with this polish

Perfect black nail polish!

If you're addicted to wearing black nail polish like I am then this is the one you need! OPI is definitely my favourite nail polish brand. This is the perfect black, it's so dark and nice. It was really easy to apply, the formula goes on smoothly and two coats is all you need. Was long lasting and doesn't chip off if you use a base and top coat. This is the only black nail polish you will need, definitely worth the price!

Nails fit to brighten up your night

I love painting my nails. I have dozens of little bottles all ranges of colours. But i have always found that nail polish doesn't seem to last. Maybe my nails are a little too oily or something? Regardless nail polish generally lasts me a day or two before it begins chipping and flaking. With Opi nail polish I can point it on and trust it'll last me at least a week! And they have some gorgeous colours (cajun shrimp anyone?) My own complaint is the price. Far too expensive for me to commit to a colour! (However it makes for a good gift suggestion!)

Love OPI!

I love OPI nail lacquers! I am a nail polish addict. I own over 300 bottles of nail polish, so by now, I am able to distinguish brands that are worth buying, and OPI is definitely one of them. The lacquers are chip resistant for up to a week and come in such a huge range of colours, I want to own them all. I really buy only the unique colours exclusive to OPI but there are still so many in that category :P The smell is normal lacquer smell, nothing special there. The names are hilarious, and I love reading them. The polish looks good without a topcoat, but even shinier with them on. I also like how I can buy different textured nail polishes, and how they are now creating cool glitter polishes, similar to indie brands. Overall, OPI is one of my favourite nail polish brands, and I even own an OPI umbrella to support and show my loyalty. ;D

Tips: Basecoat is a must to prevent staining! And if I wear any glitter polishes, then basecoat followed by a PVA glue peel-off basecoat, for easy removal and prevention of staining! Topcoat is not necessary, but would prolong the life of your manicure.

Fantastic nail polish

These nail polishes are definitely worth the money if you have it! They go on smoothly and quickly and have a lovely texture. They usually chip less than cheaper brands, but of course this tends to depend on what stuff you do with your hands (used to have a labouring job and there was zero point in painting my nails!). But they are awesome polishes and they definitely last! Also, they often have OPI on sale on sale websites such as grab one and NZ sale for super cheap which is awesome.

Tips: Definitely invest in a base coat and possibly even a top coat cos they help the polish last heeeeaps longer!
