I decided to buy this nailvarnish after having a disaster on holiday where I dropped my full bottle of Jessica coral nailvarnish on the villa floor spilling the entire contents over my leg and the floor! : (
I liked the Jessica colour but I wanted something more orange?after searching the whole Jessica range and not finding anything I tried the Opinailvarnishes and found the 'Atomic Orange' colour, which looked bright orange! I wouldn't have had the next idea about where to find Opinailvarnishes, other than beauty salons which was where I had first noticed the brand.

Of course, using a top coat helps it to last longer, and some top coats are better than others, which is another factor to consider. This is not my ...
Advantages: Strengthens & nourishs nails. Disadvantages: Could do with a wider brush
As a confirmed nail biter for the last 36 years, i finally decided to do something about my knarled stumps. After watching a QVC presentation on this product range, i bought first of all the OPI cuticle oil & nail replenisher, just put a few drops on each nail and massage in. I did this every time i would normally bite my nails, and hey presto my nails started to look healthy with less ridges, my cuticles were healthy and not ragged.
As i had been biting my nails for so long they were very soft and brittle, so i then went for the OPInail envy product. Just apply 2 coats on the first day and one coat on every 2nd day after that for one week.
