    I don't have that problem with my OPI polishes.

    I have 'That's Berry Daring' and 'Vodka and Caviar', I've never used any other OPI polishes so can't say if there are other's that have this problem.

    I hope that they aren't like that because I've just ordered the katy perry mini collection.

    I think it's just that particular colour. I have 2 other OPI polishes and have no problems with them.

    My most expensive manicure here yet ($13) and also the worst. Few specks of polish on my skin by the nail and didn't do cuticles properly. Shall not be back there!

    But I LOVE the colour! It's Essie Cote Azure. Picture is of the good hand :pac:

    I saw that colour last time I was in the salon getting my nails done. It's gorgeous! It's definitely my next manicure colour :D

    No - I think it changes colour to colour
    Most of the ones I've tried have been fine

    Good idea ... just updated mine:)

    Today I'm wearing GOSH Miss Grey - It's a nice dark grey and it went on well but it's feeling a little dark and drab on such a nice day!

    got the nail varnish from fabulous today. they are grand like i'm glad they were free. if i paid the normal nails inc. price i would have been fairly annoyed.
    the formula is ok. it does take a fair while to dry. dissapointed :(

    this evening I'm wearing

    Catrice - I Sea You

    And top coat

    I'm pretty sure my skin is going to start to suffer soon if I keep changing my varnish every day!!!

    I posted earlier that I don't understand shatter nail polishes, but I tried the Barry M one in Boots the other day and now I love them! I'm picking some up next week :pac:

    I'll probably be posting some pics of my sad, stubby nails earlier because I got a gorgeous grey polish yesterday and I really want to show it off


  • Registered Users Posts: 135 ✭✭Zxc01


    I love shatter nail polishes especially if your nail polish is a few days old and a bit chipped, you can get a new lease of life from you polish by using a shatter polish over the old polish......is that a sin....:D....I dont know but I like it!!
