OPI

I love this colour, it is a rich red and coverage of this after two coats it flawless.

The only issue I have it the length of time it lasts. OPI is great but it does tend to chip pretty dramatically sometimes.

All in all though I love the colour and that way it looks after being applied

Tips: Make sure you use a strong top coat

Best Winter Colour

This is one of my favourite OPIs out. It is soooo pretty for Winter as I get so sick of wearing dull colours. This is perfect. Nice formula and dries quickly.

Tips: If you are dressed in all black, wear this for a pop of warm, winter colour

Makes me feel like a mermaid

If you wanna feel like Ariel from The Little Mermaid this nail polish is it. Silver and green/blue/purple duo(tetra?)chrome it reflects and changes in the light. I have olive skin and I really like it on myself but its a very unique colour so I can imagine it'd be one of those love it or hate it things.

Tips: Needs a couple of coats for true opacity

Very electric looking

I love this nail polish and how easy it is to put on, usually with these kind of nail polishes they are stick and very clumpy, but with the ball inside it and the kind of formula its super easy! Love the outcome of the colour and how electric it looks!

Tips: Shake before use

Not everyone's favourite

Took me sometime to get used to the texture. At first I found the texture a little bit weird but I think it suits edgy style girls. I just don't like it when it scratches my clothing, a bit annoying if you have long fine hair too when u stroke your hair with fingers. I know this is Matte finish but i tried with top coat (to prevent scratching my clothes!) and it looked like a very badly done manicure :P but Matte top coat still acceptable to me. And its harder to remove comparing to normal OPI ones but not as bad as glitter nail polish.

Tips: yes soak into the nail polish remover with cotton pad and wait for 10 sec then wipe off! Done! And try not to wear easy-tangled, silk-like clothing!

OPI

I have about 9 different OPI colours at the moment and use them a lot. They have such a fantastic range of colours and are really easy to apply. I find that they do chip after about 2 days though which is a bit disappointing considering the price. My favourites are Can't find my czech book and Suzi's hungary again.

Tips: They are often on special so keep an eye out.

OPI - A Classic

OPI has definitely become a classic staple in any girl's nailpolish collection! Almost iconic now for their high quality, bottle design and range of colours, I've used several shades and found them to be almost perfect. The formula is great, the application is easy, and the polish lasts well without chipping. The range of colours is fantastic, and I love some of the quirky and creative names they come up with too! My only scruple would be that the darker reds tend to stain my nails, and rub off on things if I'm not wearing a top coat.

Tips: Base coats will help protect your nails from discolouration, and a top coat will help protect against chipping.

OPI - It's a love and hate kind of relationship.

I am a lover of OPI Nail Lacquer, and always have been. They have the best selection of colours you could dream of. However I do find that no matter how I store my OPI collection, it is always the last 20% of product that is 'gloopy' and therefore difficult to apply. There are tricks that one can do to create a nicer consistency, but I am also aware that with some other brands I do not have this issue at all. Perhaps it is all in the ingredients used? Then there is the price, it's expensive! On a positive note, I also love the packaging. As I said it's a love hate kind of relationship!

Tips: Store in a drawer where your collection of OPI will be less effected by the changes of temperature. Also there are specific products you can buy to thin out your Lacquers but if you have no such thing you can actually use a few drops of nail polish remover and shake well.

Great results, great range, but expensive!

I think OPI is a great brand. They have a fantastic selection of shades and finishes. I am a huge fan of their glitter polishes! The consistency of their products I find is always really nice and two coats generally does it. I also love the quirkyness of their product names. My all time OPI fave would have to be 'My private Jet' which is what I would describe as a beautiful black with bronze/near holographic shimmers. I always get the most amazing compliments and it wears very well.

Tips: Remember to always use a base coat to prevent yellowing and a top coat to ensure you seal the polish.

OPI Lacquers

I have loved OPI since becoming obsessed with nail polishes a few years ago...and now I have such a huge collection! What I love most about OPI is the range of colours they have available, colours that you just don't find anywhere else. For most colours one coat usually does the trick, but I like bold colours so I tend to do at least 2 coats. What I dislike about OPI is the fact they are so expensive! For this reason, I'm branching out and trying polishes from other brands to see how they compare. As well as this, OPI chips a day after I apply it (literally) so for me, I know if I don't want to go through that process, I won't wear it. Lastly, I dislike how the different collections almost always are limited edition, so you have to stock up on your favourite colour!

Tips: I have weaker nails, so this may be the reason OPI chips so easily for me. I wonder if it works better for those with naturally strong nails?
