Manicure Monday: OPI in Spoken from the Heart

For this post, it is a repeat of OPI in Spoken from the Heart that I reviewed in August 2021.
This is OPI in Spoken from the Heart. I could not find it on the website. It's either sold out or discontinue. I 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. The website describes it as "I have a deep feelings for this pretty coral." I see more a pinkish-coral than a coral itself.
Here's a closer look at the brush.
I applied Essie Strong Start Base Coat, two coats of OPI in Spoken from the Heart, and topped all the nails with Orly In A Snap Quick-Dry Topcoat.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the brush is wide enough to do three strokes and move onto the next nail. I'm a huge fan of curve tip brushes. This particular brush is straight across. Even though it's straight across, I found it pretty doable to paint around the cuticles and sides. Secondly, I love the packaging. I love the Hello Kitty design on the top. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of thick glass. The top is also sturdy. I could 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 your pocket. It's also easy to hold with one hand. Third, the consistency is creamy and medium. It's not too thick that it's hard to work with. It's also not too thin that it runs while painting. To be honest, this is the consistency I prefer. It has a gel-like creamy consistency. You can take your time with painting. It will not get clumpy with usage. With that said, it's easy to use. It goes on smoothly, and there are no streaking and bubbles. Fourth, it's a pretty pinkish-coral color. It's great for spring and summer season. Do I think the color is unique? No, you can find this color in other brands. Pigmentation-wise it's up there. Two coats were good enough for my skin color. Lastly, I'm on my fifth day. I did not see any shrinkage and chipping whatsoever. I honestly think this particular base/nail strengthener I am using is making a huge difference on the nail polish. I am glad I got this product. It's pretty and I can see myself wearing it both on the nails and toes.

Would repurchase: Yes.
