Okay, so, I’ve been meaning to share this for a while, and today’s the day! It’s about my little experiment with OPI’s astrology-themed nail polishes. Yeah, you heard that right—nail polish based on your zodiac sign. Sounds kinda gimmicky, but I was curious, so I decided to give it a shot.
First, I went to a beauty store, they got some OPI products. I’m not much of a beauty guru, but I do like to keep my nails looking decent. And I checked out their collection and honestly, the colors are pretty nice, regardless of the astrology theme. They got all sorts, from shimmery blues to deep reds.
So I picked up a few that caught my eye. I’m a Scorpio, so naturally, I grabbed the one for my sign. It’s this deep, mysterious, kinda dark purple color. Really cool. But I also got a couple of others because, why not? I grabbed a fiery red for Aries (my rising sign, if you’re into that stuff) and a dreamy blue for Pisces (because I just liked the color, okay?).
- Checked out the OPI astrology collection.
- Picked up the Scorpio shade (dark purple).
- Also got Aries (fiery red) and Pisces (dreamy blue).
Next, I went back home and started to try it out. I applied the Scorpio one first, of course. The application was smooth, no clumps or anything. Two coats and it looked perfect. It’s a really rich color, and it dried pretty fast, which is always a plus. The Tri-Flex Technology really works.
Then I tried the Aries red. It’s bold, I’ll give it that. Not something I’d wear every day, but definitely a statement color. It made me think that I could do some nail art, and some tutorials showed how to create “Red-y for Gold” effect, guess I could try that next time.
Lastly, the Pisces blue. It’s more subtle than the other two, kinda like a cloudy sky. I found this one perfect for a more laid-back look. And this one claims to be long-lasting up to 3 weeks, awesome! I also saw that JCPenney got some sales going on with OPI products, good to know!
My Thoughts
Honestly, it was a fun little project. I ended up with some new nail polish colors that I actually like, and I got to play around with the whole astrology theme. I think the polishes are good quality—they go on nicely and last a while without chipping. Plus, the colors are really pretty. I even got compliments on the Scorpio purple!
So, would I recommend these? Sure, why not? It’s a fun way to treat yourself, and who knows, you might find your new favorite nail color based on your zodiac sign. You can find where to buy OPI products. And if you have any questions, you can contact OPI directly.
I learned that Pikeville, KY got a nice nail salon that uses OPI products, maybe I can check it out next time I travel there. Anyway, that’s it for my OPI astrology nail polish adventure. Hope you enjoyed it!
