OPI Nail Lacquer Review

As someone who has had their nails done fortnightly for the last 5 years, I can whole heartedly swear on the quality and wear of opi polishes! They never chip whilst on my nails and even after all these years of getting my nails done they are in the same (if not better) condition than when I started! I love the color diversity, there really is a color to suit any one for any occasion, wether you are a bold bright person or prefer pastel!

Before I started using O.P.I I always use to use Miki. Then I discovered this, I was buying Miki because it was so cheap yet having to use so much to make my nails actually look like they had the right amount of coat and shine, but opi can do that in just 2 strokes of the brush, and the Nicole by opi brushes are amazing as they are shaped as your nail, dries quickly and lasts a long time, especially if you use opi clear coat.

Love this brand of nail polish!! The only one I use even though its a bit pricy but all worth it :D The colours are beautiful and vibrant and with so many choices theres always the perfect colour for your mood or to match your outfit!!

Love the colours, however, I do find that the polish is quite expensive considering it chips off after a day or so.

This is quite a pricy nail polish but with a wide range of colours to choose from, good consistency but in my opinion chips off nails quite easily for the price I would expect better quality product!

OPI nail polish is amazing! Everyone has heard of OPI, they have such an amazing range of colours so you will always find a colour you like! The nail polish lasts a long time, doesn't make my nails go yellow or weak. Love OPI!

Definitely worth purchasing, looks great, long lasting and comes in a variety of colours! love it, my friends showed me the brand and ever since then , I haven't found anything that could be just as good for my nails!

I received my first OPI nail polish as a Christmas present from a friends mum. It was Black Onyx. I fell in love with OPI instantly. Fast forward 5-6 years and my love affair with OPI is that of a love/hate relationship. Some colours are perfect and only require two coats for full coverage. Others can look nice in the bottle but lack wow factor once on the nail. On the odd occasion my nails have still been transparent even after three coats.

Another thing I have noticed since trying other brands such as Essie and Sally Hansen is that OPI tends to chip quicker than the mentioned brands, even with a top and base coat. But i think that OPI has adjusted it's prices accordingly to make up for this.

The thing that OPI has going for it is that they always bring out new colours and advertise them really well. So if I am looking in a magazine I will usually see a range there and will know the colour I want before even going into the store to purchase it.

Overall, a few colours are a miss but when you find a good OPI colour it makes it all worth it!

Hits: Monsooner Or Later, Red My Fortune Cookie, Black Onyx, Fly, Play The Peonies (requires three coats but totally worth it).

Misses: Alpine Snow, Black Cherry Chutney, any glitter polish (i'm not a fan).

After trying OPI I haven't used another brand of nail polish, the gorgeous colours with heaps of variety is awesome, along with the quality of the polish that doesn't flake or chip. Although to love it, it leaves my nails dry and flakey after regular use.
