Opi question

I often have my nails done as my little treat every few weeks. Been going to same lady for 10 years, she's fab! However for quickness ive recently been having opi straight colour as opposed to manicure. Most of my nails have tips with acrylic, but my little nail Is my own. Had colour done on Saturday, the corner has already peeled off!

Tell me your opi experiences!

I find opi really good. I don't got to salons, I have lots of my own opi's. They wear well on me with a good base and topcoat. Which polish does your manicurist usually use?

I'm not sure tbh! I know it's an opi brand. I've only started having opi in last few his so just wondering really! Do u have tips or your own nails?

I used to have tips and then switched to overlays. My nail polish would last two weeks. Now I put it straight on my natural nails and whatever I use it lasts only 3-4 days max. I like Jessica, Essie & OPI.

Yes I've tried overlays but find it just peels off after a few days. So I've opted for tips as the linger lasting and probably stronger option for me. I sew for living so they get quite a beating. I think that's why it's peeled off the tiny one as no tip on that one Hmm
