Very impressed!

I am so very impressed with OPI's quality and color range. It was hard for me to justify spending $25 on a nail polish, but I am SO glad I did! It lasts and is so easy to apply.

I was using cheap brands before this and when I first tried OPI I have NEVER bought another cheap nail polish. It's not worth it! Now to save up to collect all the gorgeous colors!

OPI Chrome

I couldn't wait to get the Chrome OPI! It's safe to say that I'm a nail polish addict.

I brought mine from Farmers for $20 which included a mini bottle of base coat.

The packaging is like all the OPI polishes so nothing new there.

Once I got home and read the instructions, I was disappointed to read that this colour was only meant to last for one night. I wasn't aware of that but never the less, I was still excited to try it out.

The consistency is quite thick and I found it easy to apply. You need to apply two coats as stated in the instructions. My first coat was quite streaky which doesn't normally happen for me so I took more care with the second coat but that still appeared streaky.

Once it was fully dry (around five minutes) I couldn't stop staring at it, I looked like I had mini mirrors on my nails and I loved it! :-)

While doing the groceries later on ,I received a couple of compliments on it too.

My only disappointment with this polish is that it didn't last, not even for the 'one night' as the bottle states. Mine started chipping after 5-6 hours.

Even though this particular polish doesn't last as long as I had hoped for, I'm still really happy with the chrome effect it has as ive always been a fan of chrome and would recommend it if you don't mind it lasting a short while.

Tips: I think this particular polish would be perfect for a night out but definitely not for every day wear.

LOVE OPI

My all time favourite nail polish brand.

Even though its quite expensive, it is defiantly worth the money. OPI is AMAZING!

Best colour range and finishes, everyone will find atleast more than 15 colours they love. With over 250 colours, if you have a colour in mind OPI will have it. Really cute names too :)

Its very long lasting and doesn't stain your nails, like most other nail polish brands I've tried. The brush is easy to apply with and can you get to the very edge of the nail without getting all over your fingers easily. It streak free, doesn't clump. Looks like you just came from a professional nail salon.

Tips: Looking after your nails and buffing regularly makes the nail polish last a little bit longer than it usually would.

simply the best.

OPI, where do I even begin!

I'm not a girl who often paints her nails as I'd rather get them done professionally, but when I do feel the need to do them myself I always reach for one of my OPI polishes.

These are great for beginners as they are not thick and messy, but rather smooth and glide on with ease.

The brush isn't to thick and you can really get into the edges of your nails with making a mess all over your skin.

The colour range that they offer is simply amazing and you will have no problem in finding a cloud that you love. In fact it's hard to not buy them all!

Personally I find that the OPI nail polishes I do own, last a lot longer than other brands do. Less chipping and really easy to remove.

I've had a lot of trouble with other brands of nail polish staining my skin while trying to remove it, but never have I had this problem with OPI.

My favourite colour is Cajun Shrimp. It's kind of coral like and it is perfect for summer!!

I high recommend this brand of nail polish to everyone.

Wouldn't use anything else

I've always used OPI Nail Lacquer when going to get my nails done at a salon and decided to buy some to do at home. I seriously won't be buying anything else but OPI for a home job. I really like how it glides on the nails and once dried (and after 2 coats) it looks like I got them done professionally. OPI is the best!

Tips: Use a really good base coat polish first, do 2 coats of OPI then use a really good top coat polish. Voila! done!

Expected more but still a great polish

After wanting to try Opi nail polish for ages i finally got one, just 1 to begin with to trial and decide whether they are worth the money or not. I got the color 'Don't pretzel my buttons' which is the most perfect nude shade i've ever seen, really happy with it! Every other nude/ neutral/ natural color nail polish I have is either too pinky or too peachy this one is a pale creamy beige, very clean and sophistced looking color a lot like the color of baylies liqueur.

Considering the general full RRP of Opi nail polish i was expecting the brush to be different to other polishes, for it to be a bit special i guess but it's fairly standard. The brush is slightly flat and does a good enough job of getting into the edges tidily. The formula is what I consider to be ideal for a nail polish, glides on with ease and the finish is neat & solid with 2 coats. I expected this polish to be more chip resistant considering all of the hype over this brand, but it's chipping within a couple of days like any other average polish. (Without top coat that is, get an extra day or so out of it with top coat.)

I will definately buy Opi nail polish again if i happen to see a colour i really like and its no more than $10 but the $25 RRP, no way. While i do think this is great quality polish i have many much more affordable brands of nail poish in my collection that are equaly or nearly as good as Opi.

amazing nails done by you!

ow. These nail polishes are so amazing! They have a flawless finish and are super easy to use. The colour that comes onto you nails is exactly what you see in the bottle. The brush is amazing and glides the nail polish on evenly. Comes off easily with nail polish remover which is good cause you don't have to use thousands of cotton balls. Otherwise it stays on for a decent amount of time. Definatly worth the price.

Tips: Buy one!

Worth the money!

These are my favourite nail polishes ever! They come in so many different colours, and provide this amazing glossy finish that I can't seem to get with any other polishes! Super quick and easy to use, and the brush is great for covering the entire nail in almost one swipe!

It comes off with nail polish remover pretty quickly, and dries within 3-4 minutes. It's very long lasting and hardy, usually staying on for as long as a few months! The polish is slightly pricy, but well worth the money because you are getting top quality product.

Tips: -Use good quality cotton pads when removing. -Use a base and top coat for extra shine and to make it longer lasting.

Fab polishes for fab nails.

I looove OPI nail polishes!! They are fabulous and there is a huge range of colours. There are so many colours to choose from and they are rich and long lasting. They dry really fast, and they have a beautiful finish. The colour pigment is amazing and make your nails look amazing. They don't chip for days, nearly a week or so in my experience, unlike some of the cheaper brands out there.

These polishes are quite expensive but they are good quality and you get quite alot of product in each bottle, so it's worth it and who doesn't want fabulous nails?!

Opi is a old time favorite

Opi has always been my number one go to nail polish. It's opaque and lasts well. They have a lot of colors to choose from. The nail polish itself lasts a long time so it won't dry up in the bottle before you want to use it

Tips: Shake all your nail polish bottles every month if your not using them to keep them from separating
