O.P.I. - Kiss Me On My Tulips

I promised you the review of my second bottle of O.P.I. nail polish. As a Dutch woman, a bottle of the Holland Collection is basically a must-have and I just LOVED O.P.I. Kiss Me On My Tulips!

As you might have noticed, I really like pink colors, although I don’t tend to go for the really bright pinks. Well, I can tell you, this is one bright pink color! Kiss Me On My Tulips is a crème hot pink that will brighten anyone’s day. 

Let’s put it on my nails!

Ok, the formula is lovely, just as O.P.I.’s Down to the Core-al, but, also just like O.P.I.’s Down to the Core-al, it’s having a hard time to get opaque. The color is bright and rich, but the smile lines stay visible. Very out of character for me, I decided to go with 3 coats. Now, 3 coats will make it opaque! But do I want to use 3 coats to get it there? Not really. I’m starting to fall out of love with O.P.I. already. I really love their colors and the formula is so nice to apply, but I just hate having to put on 3 coats to get an opaque look!

Okay, as you might have noticed I’m not one for going for simple manicures, so I got out my stamping plates and I choose the lovely ND-005 plate from Nicole Diary. For the stamping I decided to go with a real new true love of mine: Sally Hansen’s Slicks and Stones. The final result? I’m in love!! I’ll get over the whole 3 coats thing for these polishes, but I’m not sure if I will be tempted to buy another relatively expensive O.P.I. polish.
