I have tried to get away from OPI but people just love it. The names and new colors coming out always keeps their interest. I personally think they are overpriced. I think they are a good polish, but I have to tell ya, I have bought almost all of Premiers Color Basics line. They are only a dollar and my clients like those as well. I have tried a lot of other lines but I always hear that it just isn't has good as OPI. They use them at first but always go back to OPI, until I got Premier Color Basics. I have been using them for about two years now and not one negative comment. Clients still love OPI but are just as willing to use Premier. They really do love the idea of the new colors every season. That is what keeps OPI interesting. Angie Wingerter

Some say it is the best you can buy....I NEVER agree with that statement. They equate price to quality and in the case of polish, that just isn't true. I was an avid OPI fan when I came into this business, but time and reading what is posted here, has taught me much. Haken and Zoya and China Glaze and CND are equal in quality, sometimes much better. And many cost so much less. But NO ONE can name their polishes as well as OPI. I still use OPI occasionally but I never buy complete collections anymore.....too many, too expensive, just too, too!

You must be lucky then. Not only is the polish not drying, they also get thick pretty gosh darn fast. Too quick. I can use an Essie or Haken for almost 3/4 of a bottle and never have to use thinner drops. My one client uses ONLY Chocolate Shakespeare and she was the first for this to happen. SHE said something to me about it. Well at least I am not in the minority!!!! ;-) Buenos dias, Lynnette Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile ________________________________ From: "Artistic Trends Salon" Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2009 23:14:12 -0400 To: <[email protected]> Subject: NailTech:: Re: Polish drying--was Pigment in polish I really never understand why so many people have issues with OPI…it is all I use and never have issues! I polish and let set 3 minutes or so then drop on Drip Dry. They leave in 5 minutes and are fine.

Usually they all dry within ten to fifteen minutes--any brand. The past few weeks it seems that all OPI just stayed wet and tacky. WTH? Anyone else having this problem?

My daughter, a hairdresser, just wore OPI's Vampire State Building for 5 days with no chipping. She is a BUSY girl in her salon. This may be the longest she's gone without chipping.
