Last weekend, I checked out a nail polish warehouse closest to me that I know of.
I bought two OPI polishes from their most recent collection, Scotland Collection Fall 2019. For this post, I will review the polish on the left.
This is OPI in Edinburgh-er & Tatties. 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. It's a little bit darker on the nails than the bottle.
Here's a closer look at the brush. I love the wide width brush.
I applied OPI Nail Envy in Original, Madam Glam Gelementary Gel-Like Base Coat, two coats of OPI in Edinburgh-er & Tatties, and then topped all the nails with Essie Good To Go Top Coat.
Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the brush is wide enough to do three strokes and move onto the next nail. The past couple of years I ended up loving brushes that have a slight curve at the tip. I found it easier to paint around the cuticles and sides. Even though it doesn't have a slight curve at the tip, it was easy to paint around the cuticles and this is coming from someone who isn't good at painting nails. Secondly, I have always love the packaging of OPI. It's simple and it stands out. 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 easy to throw in your purse, bag, and even you pocket. Third, the consistency is creamy and medium. With that said, it's easy to use. It just glides on the nails and leave a nice, smooth texture. If you are looking for glitters, this isn't the color. It's a simple, one color nail polish. It goes on smoothly, and there were no streaking and bubbles. Fourth, the color is really pretty. It's a light mauve color and it'll look great on darker skin tone. For me, it kind of blends to a point it looks like a nude color. It will be a great work color. Pigmentation-wise it's up there. I wouldn't say it's the most pigmented but two coats were good enough on me. Lastly, I did not see any chipping whatsoever. I did see shrinkage at the tips on the fifth day. I consider that pretty decent. I am glad I got to try this particular color. I like the color and it lasts a decent amount of time.
Would repurchase: Yes.
