Manicure Monday: OPI in Sparrow Me the Drama

I cannot remember when I purchased this product from OPI. I want to say 2018 but I'm not 100% sure.

This is OPI in Sparrow Me the Drama. I tried looking on the website and no search available. My guess is it's either sold out or discontinued. I would think it's the second. Since I did a thorough review of OPI in Next Stop...The Bikini Zone, I will base this on that.
Here's a closer look at the color.
Here's a closer look at the brush. I love the wide width brush.
I applied OPI Nail Envy in OriginalButter London Nail Foundation Priming Basecoat, 2 coats of OPI in Sparrow Me the Drama, and then topped all the nails with Butter London Hardwear Shine UV Topcoat.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the brush is wide enough to do three strokes and move onto the next nail. Since the color is on the light side or I should say it matches close to my skin color, making errors around the skin isn't that noticeable. For that reason, it's easy to paint around the cuticles. Secondly, I like the packaging. I never had issues with any nail polish packaging. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of thick glass. The top is also sturdy. I can feel a tight seal when I open and close the top. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's small enough to hold with one hand and easy to put in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. Third, the consistency is creamy and on the medium. With that said, it's easy to use. It goes on smoothly and there's no streaking whatsoever. If there is streaking, you can smooth it out with a nice topcoat. If you're looking for glitters or any sparkles, this isn't the nail polish. Fourth, the color is pretty. It's a pretty mauve-like pink. Even though it's a pretty pink, the color is close to my skin color. It kind of blends in. I think it'll look better on darker skin individuals. With that said, it's good for spring and summer season. Pigmentation-wise it's okay. I wouldn't say it's the most pigmented. Two layers were good enough for my skin tone. Lastly, I noticed shrinkage on the fourth day. Since the color is on the light side, it wasn't that noticeable. I only noticed because I had to look at my nails daily for review purposes. I noticed chipping on the tips around the fifth day. Again, it's so minimal that it's hardly noticeable. I'm glad I got this product. It's a pretty, nice, neutral color and definitely long-lasting.

Would repurchase: Yes.
