OPI Top Ten // Big Apple Red // I'm Not Really A Waitress // You Don't Know Jacques Vampsterdam // Lincoln Park After Dark |
If you've still got to find a gift for a female friend then I might just have the answer for you, especially if they're into beauty and nail polish, like me. This was actually a birthday present from my little brother but thanks to the lovely people at Korean customs, I've only just received it.
It's the OPI Top Ten, a collection of ten miniature versions of the most popular selling colours by OPI this year, as the name would suggest! For a nail polish addict like myself it doesn't get much more fun than this.
The ten shades create an ombre effect from light to dark so there's sure to be at least a couple of shades to suit anyones taste. Each bottle is 3.75ml, not massive, but enough to do a couple of manicures. This set is so fun because you can test out ten of the best OPI colors without spending a fortune. It's great for someone like me who never sticks to one shade for very long, and if you really love a colour then you can buy the full size version after trailing the mini.
There's also a cute concept behind the 'top ten' too. Within the main package are two individual boxes, containing the lighter, brighter shades and one containing the darker, deeper colors. On the box it suggest you can keep one for yourself and give one to a friend. I thought that was a cute idea, but the only problem might be deciding which ones you can bare to part with!

PS: How was your weekend? We got the snow I talked about in my last post (and no shortage of it), so as predicted I've been quite distracted by it. I LOVE snow! We've been for long walks around the park and also purchased a sledge. Who said sledging is only for kids?! I snapped a few pics on my iphone , I'll share them with you in my next post :)
omg really pretty love ur pics
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely :) x
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing gift! Your brother has good taste! x
ReplyDeleteI got this for my friend's birthday and it was so hard to part with, it's just so cute! xx
ReplyDeleteYeh, I wouldn't be able to give half away let alone the whole lot! :) x
DeleteOh my gah I just love the first colors, but they all look great! My nails definitely never turn out like that when I do them myself :)
ReplyDeleteWow, great collection!!! Love it! Would you like to follow each other via gfc, fb and bloglovin? Kisses, Lucy www.tpinkcarpet.com
ReplyDeleteI love OPI's minis... the bottles are so cute. I own a few of those and agree, what a great way to get acquainted with their top-selling colours if you've never used them before! Your brother knows you well ;)

Love this post! I've passed up this OPI set a few times now, thinking the colors weren't anything special, but they look great when on! :)

Sadly I didn't. I couldn't really part with half, especially since it was actually a gift from my little brother but the idea is definitely sweet! :) x
DeleteThese look gorgeous, and thank you for including swatches of every single color on your nails!

No problem, I know it's helpful to actually see colours on. I find they look a bit different from when they're just in the bottle :) x
DeleteThey are all so gorgeous, your brother has really good taste!
ReplyDeleteSo so jealous you got snow.

He did get a couple of hints but generally I think he knows that nail polish sets are always a winner with me!
DeleteWe got so much snow, it was brilliant. Actually it's still here. The beauty of korea is that its so cold in winter it doesn't melt a few hours later like it usually does in England!! I just posted some pics from out sledging outing at the weekend :) Hoping I can go sledging again this weekend, I'm such a big kid!!
