50 Shades of OPI

Hi Everyone,

OPI recently launched a nail polish set for the 50 shades of grey movie. Its not an overly exciting set as it had 4 different shades of grey a sparkly polish which I think is more of a top coat than a polish on its own and a red polish in it.

Not really expecting much I gave them a go and I have to say that I really like them they go on great 2-3 coats and they dry really quick as most OPI polishes do. I tested them on nail extensions to show you the colours because after my last nail polish post I swore my nails were going to crumble of my hands.

My Silk Tie is a metallic silver it was opaque in three coats lasted 2-3 days with a top coat and had a really nice metallic shine of it.

Dark Side of the Mood is an almost black-grey colour three coats for opacity and a nice glossy finish it it is a creme formula and had very small shimmer to it but you really had to look at it to see that. 3-4 days with a top coat.

Romantically Involved is a nice pop of colour in this really rather grey set, its a creme finish has a nice glossiness and was opaque in two coats 3-4 days with a top coat.

Embrace the Grey when I painted this one onto the extension while I was sitting at the table in the kitchen there was a slight outburst of "Cool Ferguson grey!" I won't embarrass the culprit but it was a good way to describe this one. It has a creme finish and lasted 3-4 days with a top coat.

Shine for Me is a dense glitter polish but still took 4 quite thick coats to get full opacity I do believe it is more of a top coat to add a bit of glitter to the other ones this lasted 5 days with a top coat before chipping.

Cement the deal is the last polish in this set and is a lighter grey two coats made this polish opaque it has a creme formula and a glossy finish. This one lasted 3-4 days with a top coat.

This is a nice set if you are into collecting but these polishes are basic colours and can defiantly be got cheaper in other brands. My favourite ones are defiantly Dark Side of the Mood and Romantically Involved if you are goinf to get any I think those are the best ones or a cheaper option is to buy the mini set and get all the colours in mini (£19.95 on OPI site for the mini set each full sized bottle is £11.95).
