    I cannot say enough about how much I adore OPI nail polish. The range of colours it comes in is fantastic! This polish has staying power! I find it goes on wonderfully with one coat two max and does not easily chip off. The new line of the shatter polishes gives even more dimension to my nails.

    OPI makes the best nail polish, it is a durable nail polish, available in beautiful colors, and there shatter is amazing it gives you a salon look that you can do easily right at home. It is a little more on the expensive side for nail polish, but it last a long time, it doesn't dry up and turn clumpy, I would definitely recommend OPI .

    I choose OPI over other brands because I heard it doesn't contain certain chemicals that will harm your nails. They have a wide range of colours to choose from. It stays on for a little bit over a week after I finish it with a top coat. I use two layers everytime and the only thing I dislike is the waiting time for it to dry completely. It gets scratched easily if not dry and it takes more than an hour for it to dry completely.

    OPI is a great polish brand - cute names, great color selection, and always on trend but with some classics!

    The polishes are typically good quality with a chip rate similar to other comparable polishes (e.g. Essie, Sephora, Chanel). Niec brush applicator and colors tend to go on evenly. I like to pick up some of the trendy colors collections such as the Muppets series and to keep a few classics around like Lincoln Park After Dark.

    The mini polish sets are a great way to get a few of the current season's colors without getting stuck with a bunch of colors that you will no longer wear once the next color of the moment appears. Highly recommended.

    Totally fell in love with OPI Black Shatter- it looks great with any colour under the black- you can use any colour you like, I did a test run with white (cause I think black & white look amazing together in fashion, so why not in nail polish)? You want to use a high contrast colour like hot pink, bright blue, yellow, orange, etc for this to look the best. I would stay away from dark shades as you will not be able to see the colour underneath the black.

    1st step is to apply your bright colour nail polish, do a second coat if need be & then finish with a top clear coat (this will make sure the bright colour really shines when adding the black on top).

    2nd step is to make sure your nails are completely dry, when you think their dry I would wait an extra 5 minutes after that, just to be safe!

    3rd step is to apply the shatter coat, I would say clean off the brush quite a bit before you apply a coat of Shatter as you don't want it to completely cover the original colour. Try not to go over it too many times (I tried to go once down the middle, then once down the right side, followed by the left side). You have to move quickly on this, I found the shatter to dry pretty fast, also try not to go over the same spot twice.

    4th step is to apply a top coat, the Shatter is pretty matte & you will be able to feel the bumps & cracks of it if you don’t, this will also give the look a super high gloss finish.

    FYI- the bottle it says to use Shatter with Katy Perry nail polish line, but I think that’s just a marketing ploy as it will work on any nail polish you have, may that be OPI, Revlon, Mac, etc.

    Overall I would totally recommend this product for anyone looking to have some fun with their nails!

    OPI makes the best nail polishes! I love their colours and they seem to release new lines quite frequently. It is often hard to keep up with their new releases. One of my favourite colours is Lincoln Park After Dark. This nailpolish colour is a classic dark plummy colour.

    I love the OPI brand of nail polishes. They go on smooth, have a vibrant color, are long lasting and pretty chip resistant. I find my nails grow out first at the cuticles well before my first chip appears. I have tons of colors and find they are the one brand of nail polish I tend to stay true to because of the quality.
