Thank you so much for all your hard work swatching and comparing, I always love your OPI videos and find them incredibly helpful! I am so disappointed that the shimmer in I Can Never Hut Up isn't more prominent because that could have been AMAZING! And thank you for comparing Spear to Amazon... Amazoff because now I know I need Spear (also that name... one of the reasons I love OPI).
shortnailswatcher I find it to be present but not as strongly as let's say orlys spring 2016 beautifully bizarre... I kinda like it because it's more subtle
shortnailswatcher I feel like every so often OPI releases a collection of basic colors to update their standard permanent collection, since they are a salon brand.
I'm a blue-a-holic, so I picked up the blue shimmer polish. Right now I am wearing it over A Grape Affair and it is fabulous. I want to get the green, the gray, and the brown neutral.
I wanted to buy this collection online, but decided to check out my favorite local beauty supply. They had the entire line and I bought it on Feb 1st for 47 + taxes (51 total). Great price for a beautiful collection... Can't wait to start wearing it! My favorite nail supply store usually doesn't carry new Opi collections early and don't always have all shades available (they sell out fast)... This time they had it and I got lucky because I was early
"Polly Want a Lacquer?" looks lovely. Star of the show IMO! Great vid Phoebe! I know how hard you worked on this one. I absolutely loved the comparisons section :D
great color-- true lavender-- but junk formula. a lot of bloggers said that and I got it anyway. thin, runny, floods cuticles, streaky....... got the polish from ulta so not a fake either.
My Super Trop-i-cal-i-fiji-istic had the same typo. I love that you include dupes for these collections. I'm someone who is drawn to certain colors and this helps me decide if I really "need" some of them? lol.
What a great review! OPI is one I follow faithfully. 💛As always appreciate the work you do on the dupes. I generally don't get to Marshalls or TJ MAXX often. It's about 1.5-2 hours away. But we ventured out last weekend. And TJ had some OPI from the Hello Kitty collection. So was looking for one I missed out on. As I was looking I discovered that the names weren't the same. I remember a few years ago there was a bunch of polishes there that had weird names. But hadn't noticed that recently. But there they were all different. That being said my stores haven't had nearly the amount of polish in the last year and a half or so. Kind of sad! But thanks again Phoebe!
wow that was a long video :-) John was listening as I watched and got a kick out of the names. thanks for all that work! you're great and I like this collection. I want the orange :-) thanks love
Now and Zen from the 2016 Essie Fall collection is really close in value and tone to I Can Never Hut Up, but without the green shimmer. (It's just a creme.)
'do you sea what i sea' looks to be very similar to 'i sea you wear opi', which i just happen to putting on my nails right meow! i don't remember which collection it was from. maybe a summer brights from a couple years ago. but, anywho.. i love your review and dupes! this is the first i've seen of this collection. i feel like i have a lot of very similar colors to these colors, so i may or may not purchase. i do like the orange, the grey and the purple. thanks so much for your work :-) it helps greatly and is always fun to watch
Thanks Phoebe! So you say this is their spring AND summer collection? I'm new to polish so I haven't seen a whole year yet. There are 3 Ulta exclusive polishes in this collection, still available as of this morning. There is an orange, a mint green, and an orchid purple called "Nails of Paradise."
great video! Thank you! So informative. Suzi want Laquer did not work for me at all. Three coats and still patchy. Sad. Could you review China Glaze´s spring fling collection? That would be awesome.
Watching this I was really excited till the dupes portion lol. I ordered the whole collection cuz it just took me to dream land. So now I'm stuck with the whole collection regardless if I have a polish that's a dupe lol. But No Tan Lines got me really excited lol.
La La poolside service wore much darker than I expected from the bottle. it's also a more gray toned shade. from what I can tell mermaids tears is much lighter and bit more green toned. i don't know if this helped at all! but hopefully it did lol
Thanks! Now that you say that I found Poolside Service wore darker than the bottle too. Mermaid's Tears is much lighter than Poolside Service. I suppose that Is That a Spear In Your Pocket? is somewhere between the two. It's a very 'dupeable' collection though, none that really jump out at me, except that one (I'm a sucker for that sort of colour).
I might buy "Is that a spear in your pocket" just for the name lol. Did you see LeChat is releasing a holographic ("Spectra") collection? I hope they release it in their minis.
Hi, back in the late 1970's up to 1981 Avon had a color of nail polish, it was called plum perfait the color was a creamy milky tan with a hint of plum, do you have or know of a color that might compare to this polish, I looked for many years trying to fine this color, any brand, the color looks great on any skin color,
Polly want a lacquer looks like the perfect balanced lilac! Do you know how it compares to Sally Hansen insta-dri in Leapin' Lilac? I'm hoping it's a hair more red because the SH one is just a hair too blue.
I feel like I don't need any of these. :( I'm really not an OPI fan, and I try not to buy it new since they are not a cruelty-free brand, but I already have (or have had and destashed) at least one of the dupes for each of these colors. I'd be interested in seeing dupes from other mainstream brands, but that video could go on for days. haha!
Could Getting Nadi for My Honeymoon be a dupe for the OLD version of Mod About You? I recently purchased Mod About You and it has a more bubble-gum pink quality.
I saw another review that showed it was a dupe for Amazon, Amazoff actually. She noted that Amazon, Amazoff really stains and she hoped Spear would not.
Jenn W Thanks girl! I guess I will be purchasing this one then. I love it and am glad I have nothing like it!! I didn't get Amazon Amazoff. Everyone was saying how bad it stains. I am one of those weirdos that wear dark polishes like that through the summer and don't want stained toes.
and I think she's a bad muffletta (or something from the new orleans) might compare to the hot red/orange? the pastel lavender is so cute and springy! :)
I love how you are able to mix 2 of your passions by having your piano playing in the background. I love it 😘

Great job again Phoebe! Thanks for all the dupes.
Ty so much for taking the time to do all the comparisons, they are extremely helpful
You are the master of nail polish comparisons and dupes. I have watched this vid multiple times!
Phoebs, you did such a fantastic job on all the swatches and comparisons!!! Amazing video + you totally rock for doing it :) Xo
Love the dupe portion! 💅🏼💅🏼

Is that a spear in your pocket is my fav 🌳
A perfect Tiffay Blue color is China Glaze Aquadelic. I've compared it to the box myself! lol
I wish Tiffany would collaborate with OPI or something so we could get a true actual Tiffany blue polish ):
great video and info, thank you so much! I really liked No tan lines!
Love the dupes comparisons. Thank you!!!!!
Unfortunately, none of them really jumped out at me. I have dupes or near on dupes of all. Thanks for the video!
just call the blue super! lol I really like this whole collection! 😍😍
apparently suzi is the CEO's name. 😉
Love your comparison! That's so helpful!!! Thank you for doing this ❤️

OH lol this is why I should watch the whole video before commenting. I look forward to seeing those!
Really great video. Thanks for the dupe portion which helped to decide which to purchase. First time I have seen your videos. Fanu
Great video Phoebes..... Is Super Trop.... a dupe for Essie's "Butler Please"? 😘😉
painting my toe nails while I watch this 💅🏼💕 with Essie Seen on the Scene
Awesome review & comparisons! ❤❤❤😊
I needs ta know if you have any China Glaze dupes for Is That a Spear In Your Pocket? Excellent video - gracias!
bought them all today including the 3 from Ulta:-)and I think the purple one from Ulta you will really like! I loved the melon orangey one myself...
💕your dupes. Just wish you had time to compare to Essie and Zoya as you do such a great job. Totally understand why you can't, though.😉
You do such a fantastic job!!!
Great video! Do you happen to know how Do you Sea what I Sea compares with I Sea you Wear OPI?
Jessica Pemberton I just thought of the same thing lol
Jessica Pemberton I have been wondering the same thing!
me three!
Shucks, I don't have I Sea you Wear OPI, sorry guys!! just from looking at swatches online, this years Sea looks more blue-toned
I bought them both and the Fiji polish is darker. But same idea
great video! Thank you! So informative. Suzi want Laquer did not work for me at all. Three coats and still patchy. Sad.
Could you review China Glaze´s spring fling collection? That would be awesome.
Watching this I was really excited till the dupes portion lol. I ordered the whole collection cuz it just took me to dream land. So now I'm stuck with the whole collection regardless if I have a polish that's a dupe lol. But No Tan Lines got me really excited lol.
Thanks for the dupe/comparison portion! How does Is That a Spear In Your Pocket? compare to Essie Poolside Service and OPI Mermaid's Tears? Thanks :)
La La poolside service wore much darker than I expected from the bottle. it's also a more gray toned shade. from what I can tell mermaids tears is much lighter and bit more green toned. i don't know if this helped at all! but hopefully it did lol

Nice work on the dupes! Would you consider bringing in different brands? (like Zoya?)
Thanks Phoebe. Hey any upcoming reviews for China Glaze?
Laura Isaacson you betcha, after swatchfest
Phoebe Moon thanks!
typo...Fantastic!!
Phoebe, what about Essie Gel Couture Closing Night vs I Can Never Hut Up? They look very similar?
two timing the zone and shorts story DUPES
Thank you for your video ! It helps me to choose
The orangey red one looks like Cajun Shrimp and 5 Apples tall from the Hello kitty collection.
TFS. liked the blues.
I might buy "Is that a spear in your pocket" just for the name lol. Did you see LeChat is releasing a holographic ("Spectra") collection? I hope they release it in their minis.
ooooh spectra? sounds interesting!!

i don't have Leapin' Lilac, sorry!
Oh my, I need to get Polly Want a Lacquer! Any idea if there's a Zoya dupe for this colour?
not that i could find. zoya heather is the most similar in my collection(i swatched it in last swatchfest) but its considerably lighter
Thanks for the tip! How about Zoya Abby from their latest collection?
I’m watching this years later and wondering if that shop still exists?
you should have added opi kiss me on my tulips to your two timing the zones comparison.
beautiful pink- I didnt have it to include, but thanks for mentioning it here :)
Phoebe Moon oh no then you must check it out and get if you like I hope you will.
loved this!!!
I feel like I don't need any of these. :( I'm really not an OPI fan, and I try not to buy it new since they are not a cruelty-free brand, but I already have (or have had and destashed) at least one of the dupes for each of these colors.

Living on the Bula-vard looks similar to their Cajun Shrimp color...
Holly Garland I was wondering the same thing
TY!!!!!!
Could Getting Nadi for My Honeymoon be a dupe for the OLD version of Mod About You? I recently purchased Mod About You and it has a more bubble-gum pink quality.
i don't have the old version :( anyone here know?
This would be my first time buying any opi nail polis, do you think it's worth getting?
I am trying to find a sage nail polish. A light green but not a pastel (and definitely not mint). any recommendations??
Suzi without a paddle looks more green then blue ...?? In the bottle and on the nail it does look green...
Do you have zoya Blu? If so how does it compare to Suzi without a paddle? I'm trying to find a cheaper dupe of Blu
I got 5 colors thinking they were unique and all í had a dupe including from the same opi
Can Lucky nail supply ship to Arizona for free ?
Do you have China Glaze Exotic Encounters?? I feel like it could be a dupe for Is that a spear in your pocket.
I saw another review that showed it was a dupe for Amazon, Amazoff actually. She noted that Amazon, Amazoff really stains and she hoped Spear would not.
Jenn W Thanks girl! I guess I will be purchasing this one then. I love it and am glad I have nothing like it!! I didn't get Amazon Amazoff. Everyone was saying how bad it stains. I am one of those weirdos that wear dark polishes like that through the summer and don't want stained toes.
Whoops, I stand corrected. Pretty close but not a dupe.
I think I purchased every color except I Can Never Hut Up. I wish I'd bought it now. 😔
How does the shimmery blue compare to the shimmery blue from the Hawaii collection?
and I think she's a bad muffletta (or something from the new orleans) might compare to the hot red/orange? the pastel lavender is so cute and springy! :)
and the rainforest green is gorgeous!
Jennifer Wheeler she's a bad muffuletta is a lot darker and redder. This red is lighter and has more orange in it.
For the first time, I feel like I don't need any of these. Don't look at me I'm hideous - lol
KimHeartsOrganizing
yup me too. have those colors already propably multiple times n nothing special
Hahah I read this in Kramer's voice
that's exactly where it came from!! lmao!!
Idk. I always find OPI formulas to be finicky to apply.
Ähhh sorry. Polly wants a laquer has the poop formula. at least on me
