OPI has been and will be one of my favorite mainstream brands. I really like the orange and I don't have anything like that in my collection. Thank you for this video!
Hi Jess. Love your swatches and reviews. I am a dedicated but silent spectator. Today, though I had to tell you that I really really liked your outfit and eye makeup look, too. You do look pretty in each video but today you just slayed it :)
I have already bought three from this collection but only tried sailing and nail-ing so far. I agree the formula is watery but after three coats I really do like the colour. I also bought what's the double scoop and your favourite flip flops and crop tops. I'm really looking forward to trying that one as I love the colour. Thanks for this review.😊💕
I got the blue and the tangerine color. Kinda wanting SPF XXX! I'd heard they were all 3 coaters, so I was fully prepared for 3, but the blue I did first and it was great after 2, the tangerine color was all right like I could've gotten away with 2 if I recall it was just slightly uneven, went ahead and did 3. Got them from the same place and listed you as a referral! New fav site for OPI - along with skyline beauty supply.
Peninsula Beauty in CA lets you pick out a polish for free during your birthday month, and I bought SPF XXX because it was calling to me at the counter display. I like it, and it looks bomb when matte! Thanks for all the reviews and the sassafras to the critics!
There's probably something about your lighting that makes the color appear different on each of your nails!! So I can't be sure which one is the most representative shade! But thanks for the review, it's very useful.
Aww... Some of the colors were cute, but such a shame about the formula 😕 I hate having to fight with polish to get it on right! Bummer. Great review. Thanks for all the honest info
Jessica, I liked how you put the similar colors next to the first two colors! Could you PLEASE do that for all of them? Maybe find dupes or similar colors for all of them? I'd would have loved to see the blue color next to OPI's Gelato on My Mind and The I's Have It from the Alice in Wonderland collection.
If I could have watched this video a couple of weeks ago I would not have ordered Towel me about it. It is very runny but the color is pretty for summer. I love, I'm getting a Tangerine. I have it and mine is not as bad formula wise. It is a little runny but worth the color. I watched several other RUclips videos and none of them said anything about the formula. Thank you for an honest review. I learn so much from watching your channel. Btw transdesign is now nailsupplies.us. They are supper fast shippers. This is where I found the cheapest OPI and ESSIE.
I usually get these collections really early before you post these, so I already have my mind made up but I am always so interested to see your take. I also have a weird crush on your nail shape because it's nothing like mine at all :P Thank for the video!
Slightly random, but I love your shirt in this video! Looks very pretty, but also summery, and looks elegant with the updo. Thanks for the review! I'm just starting to get in to OPI, and loved the looks of these colors, but the formulas on the first few looked like too much of a pain to make them worthwhile, especially if there are similar colors with better formulas. I'll have to pick up Flip-Flops and Crop Tops and SPF XXX, though. Those looks pretty good. And, just want to say, I will treally try not to correct you. But if I ever do, just know that a) I will try to do it in as nice a manner as possible, and b) please know it will have far more to do with MY OCD than anything YOU are actually doing wrong! :-)
Hah! I'm the exact same way. :) You could just edit and fix your mistakes by clicking on the three dots to the right of your posts, that's what I do... Quite often. :*)
I was surprised by the formula issues, OPI (at least from most of the reviews I've seen of yours) tends to be more consistent, but these all just seemed off. Like some other people said, none of these colors seemed that unique or interesting. Thanks for taking the time to swatch these, Jess. :)
Thanks so much for your post - I am a sucker for pastels so would have been sucked into this collection if it wasn't for honest live application reviews like yours Jess. How are their formulas getting Worse? OPI is supposed to be a brand you can rely on for consistency. I know they have been doing 'pastel style shades' lately but I feel like they have done similar shades better in past collections. I am desperately waiting for them to WOW me with some outstanding formulas that aren't RED, Pink or Berry shades. Once you have your personal polish collection established there is no reason to buy any polish that is not an easy 2 coater (or OCW). OPI, how about less collections of dupe-able colours and putting the focus more on excellent formulas that you just cant say no to. We need go to polishes not a 4 coat gooey mess.
I'm bummed, I really loved the first 3 polish colors, but the formula looks bad. So I won't waste my money. I agree with you. Love the last 2 polishes you picked !! Thanks for another Great Video.
I'm kinda getting a color club pastel neon feeling about this collection with the finish and the formula. Would you say that you can compare those two collections?
I have the whole collection (I'm agnesnailss) And the formulas of my polishes were almost a little bit thick. This is so weird because I was so pleasantly surprised by this whole collection...
Mine were too! Granted I only got sailing and mailing and I'm getting a tangerine. I also got them from the same place... Maybe mine dried out a bit somehow... Who knows
yikes these were difficult, and the colours don't scream 'buy me' either, i think i have a lot of similar shades. your swatch photos were great though as always, and i did like the look of the two colours with the better formula. an aside: your hair and eye makeup look gorgeous in this video, looks great with your top!
you know you have a boring collection when essie's is better. cmon opi. you can do better than this. I think they're still pouting over the fact that their lumpy silver messes didn't take off xD
I ended up picking up Flip Flops and Crop Tops and I love it. Any suggestions for a light pink with a good formula? Was going to get this one but now I'm glad I didn't. I'm an OPI girl so that is preferred but I'm open to other brands. Thanks in advance for suggestions
OMG I HAVE LITERALLY THE IDENTICAL NAIL SHAPE AND LENGTH AS YOU!!! THIS SCARED ME WHEN I CLICKED ON IT BC IT LITERALY LOOKS LIKE MY HAND ON THE SCREEN!!!
Other than the formula they seem great to me! I love these kind of pastel colours and I like when they lean into the neon... I use them a lot in my nail art :) (@erikanails on instagram)
Your makeup is a 10/10! I wonder why a lot of companies seem to be going for thinner formulas. A lot of people don't care to do 3+ coats of polish.
Your note about What's the Double Scoop made me laugh out loud LOL! I love when you're sneaky-funny LOL! Thank you XOXOXO
I absolutely love your swatch reviews! You do the best job of describing and demoing the polishes!
OPI has been and will be one of my favorite mainstream brands. I really like the orange and I don't have anything like that in my collection. Thank you for this video!
Hi Jess. Love your swatches and reviews. I am a dedicated but silent spectator. Today, though I had to tell you that I really really liked your outfit and eye makeup look, too. You do look pretty in each video but today you just slayed it :)
ah...i was so underwhelmed by these colors :/
but you did a good review :)
Thanks!
love these colors but damn those formulas!! lol, great review as always Jess!
I have already bought three from this collection but only tried sailing and nail-ing so far. I agree the formula is watery but after three coats I really do like the colour. I also bought what's the double scoop and your favourite flip flops and crop tops. I'm really looking forward to trying that one as I love the colour. Thanks for this review.😊💕
I'm always looking forward to your reviews! I appreciate the comparing to possible dupes, it's so helpful, thanks!
Thanks!

OMG I love your outfit! Super cute and summery :)
Might have to pick up that last color, despite the iffy formulas in this collection... Really pretty.
There's probably something about your lighting that makes the color appear different on each of your nails!! So I can't be sure which one is the most representative shade! But thanks for the review, it's very useful.

Great review. Thanks for all the honest info
Wow what's going on with OPI? I'm not used to seeing such a watery formula on them but I do like the pink one you chose!!! Great job Jess!
Jessica, I liked how you put the similar colors next to the first two colors! Could you PLEASE do that for all of them? Maybe find dupes or similar colors for all of them? I'd would have loved to see the blue color next to OPI's Gelato on My Mind and The I's Have It from the Alice in Wonderland collection.
Your nails are looking better these days 💕
I really love the (2)color sailing and nail-ing

Sad the formula isn't good because the colors are so pretty.
Agreed!

Gah! See, I just noticed at least two typos in my comment and it is taking everything within me not to just delete it all and start over!
haha, it's okay. We just can't help ourselves sometimes :)
Hah! I'm the exact same way. :) You could just edit and fix your mistakes by clicking on the three dots to the right of your posts, that's what I do... Quite often. :*)
+Sofie W. For some reason it wasn't giving me an edit option, just reply, delete, report, or cancel.

Thanks for watching!
You always do amazing reviews!
I love pastel colors! Can you do a review of China Glaze's spray polish?
I am surprised with OPI's thin formula!! These will take some work to look nice. Thanks for the review...very helpful!!!
Thanks for watching!
Pretty colors but 3 coats blah I do would love to watch a video how you clean up for taking your pictures
HI, love your swatches, as always. Do you know what happened to Lindsay from Lindsay does nails? Is she ok?
Tfs. I almost got this collection but I have the soft shades and they are just too similar to justify having both!👍🏻👍🏻💅🏼😻
Thanks so much for your post - I am a sucker for pastels so would have been sucked into this collection if it wasn't for honest live application reviews like yours Jess.

how long does it normally take for your polish to dry? do you have any tips to get them to dry quicker?
I'm bummed, I really loved the first 3 polish colors, but the formula looks bad. So I won't waste my money. I agree with you. Love the last 2 polishes you picked !! Thanks for another Great Video.
I was about to say bummer but then I realized I don't need anymore nail polish. So thank you!!
haha, you're welcome!
I'm kinda getting a color club pastel neon feeling about this collection with the finish and the formula. Would you say that you can compare those two collections?
If you leave the bottle open on the thin ones for a bit, would that help them go on more smoothly, or just make them goopy?
Towel Me About It. Yellow's my favorite color!! 😍😍
Thanks for watching!
+jessFACE90. You're welcome! 😊
I have the whole collection (I'm agnesnailss) And the formulas of my polishes were almost a little bit thick. This is so weird because I was so pleasantly surprised by this whole collection...

beautiful polishes and swatches
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for saving me some $! I really like What's the Double Scoop but not enough to deal with the formula😕
Thanks for watching!
yikes these were difficult, and the colours don't scream 'buy me' either, i think i have a lot of similar shades. your swatch photos were great though as always, and i did like the look of the two colours with the better formula.
an aside: your hair and eye makeup look gorgeous in this video, looks great with your top!
Thank you!
Does BTYsales ship internationally? I can't find that information on their website.
thanks for the review, looks like i'll pass on these
(was gonna ask if you planned on doing the essie gels and then i read the FAQ haha)
Is sailing and nailing a dupe for what's with the cattitude? I think the formula was bad on that one too...but I still want it!
I'm not sure, I don't have that one to compare.
Bummer about the formula. Wonder how they would sponge in a gradient?
if you don't get What’s The Double Scoop what is a close comparison.
Unbelievable how bad these formulas are! I've been really disappointed in OPI lately :-( Thanks for reviewing this collection for us!
is the tangerine one similar to great opera-tunity?
you know you have a boring collection when essie's is better. cmon opi. you can do better than this.
I think they're still pouting over the fact that their lumpy silver messes didn't take off xD
I ended up picking up Flip Flops and Crop Tops and I love it. Any suggestions for a light pink with a good formula? Was going to get this one but now I'm glad I didn't. I'm an OPI girl so that is preferred but I'm open to other brands. Thanks in advance for suggestions
"Suzi Shops & Island Hops" from last year's Hawaii collection is a good one!
i dont know what opi is doing with these collections... they are not any different or eye catching .. and all these 'pastel' formula are really bad :/
Thanks for watching!
Is "sailing and nail-ing" a dupe for "Gelato on my mind?"
I love the colors, but some are so similar to others!!
I agree
Such a pity that the formulas aren't that great. I really liked the colors
I was pretty bummed about that too
Well done you at getting them to work at all :0) x
Thanks! It wasn't easy lol
it seems hard to apply, no?
I never actually looked into it, but why do yellows always suck? It's so hard to find a good yellow.
That's a good question! They even suck when you're working with acrylic paint.
would you suggest these for a person who is just starting out on nails?
Probably not, considering how watery and thin the formula is ;)
WOOO NOTIF SQUAD
🙋
WOOOOOT
OMG I HAVE LITERALLY THE IDENTICAL NAIL SHAPE AND LENGTH AS YOU!!! THIS SCARED ME WHEN I CLICKED ON IT BC IT LITERALY LOOKS LIKE MY HAND ON THE SCREEN!!!
Have you ever swatched Ballet Slippers from Essie.....i cannot find it in your channel....I would love to hear your thoughts on that color
Nope, haven't tried that one :)
+jessFACE90 it's an oldie. But so pretty. Maybe you could review it on your channel one day.
+xxbriemariexx thank you
Very helpful thank you!
Does anyone know a good dupe for What's the double scoop? With a better formula, I love the colour!
Suzi Shops and Island Hops from the OPI Hawaii collection is similar, just a bit darker :)
+jessFACE90 Thanks so much!
what top coat do you like the most? or recommend?
Read the description
+Tatum Dean thanks!
you have the most beautiful nails. i bite my nails down to gross nubs.
Meh formulas and blah colors, no I'm cool on yet another opt collection. However, SPF xxx will be coming home with me hehe.
does that website ship to Canada?
I don't see anything about international shipping on their site, you'll have to email them to be sure.
flip flops and crop tops looks like one i need to pick up :D the rest I will pass. Lol great review
Thanks for watching!
Other than the formula they seem great to me! I love these kind of pastel colours and I like when they lean into the neon... I use them a lot in my nail art :) (@erikanails on instagram)
I have them, honestly, they suck. They dont apply nicely at all and you need at least 4 cotes on to look decent.
Sailing and nail-long kind of looks like saltwater happy by Essie
Is it just me or did this video seem to have a lower quality? Don't mean to offend anyone?
Well...poop. That was disappointing, OPI!
Blah. Bad formulas and non unique colors, I'll pass.
Thanks for watching!
Are these formulas even worse than the hello kitty collection?
Yes.
I'll definitely pass!
Is that a reborn on your profile pic
Sounds like a collection not worth getting lol!!!
It wasn't the easiest collection ever lol
I could tell lol!!!
what do u use to dry your polish faster if anything
