OPI Nail Lacquer Classic Nail Polish Colors | Blue & Green Shades

I recently found out that they discontinued essie’s from a to zzz, so of course I’m on the hunt for the next best thing because it’s one of my favorites 😞 OPI’s Suzi Takes a Sound Bath comes pretty close, out of all the ones I’ve purchased and tried. It’s darker but I really like it. I prefer nail polish that takes just 1 coat and be done with it. Unlike ‘from a to zzz’, I had to apply 2 coats (the pic shows 1 coat on the left, 2 on right). It does dry fast, so that’s a plus. I’m very happy with the color. OPI, in general, is a more expensive brand, which I try to stay away from. I use, and have come across, plenty of brands that are way less expensive with happy results.

I really love these OPI nail polishes... the colors are beautiful and exactly what I expected. The pinks and purples are vibrant and fun, and the mix of crème, shimmer, and glitter finishes gives me so many options depending on my mood. The formula goes on smoothly and dries fairly quickly... it lasts longer than many other polishes I’ve tried and doesn’t chip easily. I especially love how the shimmer and glitter catch the light—it makes my nails look polished and special without a lot of effort. Overall, these are high-quality polishes that are easy to use and make my nails look professional every time. I’ve already reached for them multiple times since getting them.

This a beautiful blue for fall. I'm loving it.

Love blue nail polish. Great color for fall.

I was looking for a light blue but this is really more of a teal. Still a nice color and polish.

I kind of feel like I’m starting to rickroll my friends with “polish change!” photos that are just another week of my obsession with OPI Scorpio Seduction 😭 I almost didn’t order this, but decided, what the heck, why not, and it has been my go-to polish for going on three months now. I usually stick to dark (black or black-adjacent) colors (Essie Licorice, OPI Midnight Mantra, Essie Punk at Heart, OPI Lincoln Park After Dark) so this was a bit of a departure from the norm for me, but I LOVE it. There is no doubt that it’s blue. I think OPI describes it as a cobalt blue? If you’re into “seasonally appropriate colors” (I am not), I think this could be great for any time of year, but perhaps especially fun for summer in the sunshine, or even a winter wonderland sort of look. When I was contemplating ordering it, I wasn’t completely sold on the shimmer/glitter aspect, but in person, it’s awesome. To me, there are three levels to it: the cobalt blue color itself, the shimmer you can see straight-on, but also there’s a sort of chrome-y flash to it that can go teal to blue to purple to even magenta?? depending on the light. My skin has “witch undertones” (light olive) but some shades, if they’re not blue-toned enough, really bring out the redness/irritation I get in my hands. This shade suits me well AND is fun to look at! Sometimes I do two coats, but usually it’s three, plus Essie Strong Start and Good to Go that I use with every polish change. I’m not super hard on my hands, so ymmv, but I usually get a week (give or take a day) out of it, sometimes with touch-ups. I do find this wears a bit longer than the blue/green Essie shades I have. It’s a bit more tenacious about removal (with non-acetone especially) than the creme shades I have, on par with the other sparklies (like Essie Studs and Spikes), though not challenging. My OPI Midnight Mantra and LPAD went suuuuper gloopy suuuuper fast, and are stubborn about it despite (frequent) solvent additive, so I was about to give up on OPI. Scorpio Seduction has given me a change of heart—it is thinner to start, so maybe that helps? So while it may be discouraging to see how sheer it is on the first coat, it builds well and in my experience is so far less frustrating to apply than their creme shades. This will be a definite repurchase for me, unless it goes away, or I get sick of it, which, by the looks of things, is improbable. In other words: never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)

Nice rich color

Beautiful color and great nail polish. It has a slight two-tone shine.

Tolle Farbe;))

Even after applying 3–4 coats, the polish still doesn’t give the expected finish or feel. The brush is another issue, it doesn’t apply smoothly and makes the application uneven.

Nice color for fair skin. I got dusky skin so doesn't suit that much

Wenn man auf Nägel steht, die nicht nur in Standardfarben leuchten, ist OPI immer eine Option. Mir gefällt die Farbe, die sich gut auftragen lässt. Und mit den zwei üblichen Lagen ist sich absolut deckend und hält bei mir ca. 3 Tagen. Das ist für mich lange genug.

Zerläuft beim Aufstreichen sofort in Nagelbett und die Deckung ist gleich Null. Schade alle anderen Farben von OPI sind toll, sehr gut aufzutragen und sehr langlebig.
