One note that I'd like to make on behalf of pyrostylez and myself is that we both really enjoy using OPI polish. However, that does not mean that we don't own or use any other brands such as Chanel, Essie etc. Perhaps one of the most important reasons that OPI seem to trump other polish is the eclectic and extensive palette they offer. Second of all, they also don't contain dibutyl phthalate (DBP), toluene, or formaldehyde. Needless to say, inhalation, contact, or consumption of the above mentioned chemicals is NOT good for you... (apparently DBP can potentially affect testes development, so you most definitely don't want pregnant women or your boyfriends to be in close contact with that, right?)
Another cool thing about OPI is that they are a family run business (they immigrated from eastern europe). Throughout the years, they have grown into one of the most well-recognized nail care brands in the world. Despite this growth and success, they still donate copious amounts to charities such as community clinics for those who are uninsured.
P.S. some OPI products do contain formaldehyde (nail hardeners), but they also give you the option to purchase products without it to give consumers more options (not quite sure why you wouldn't just straight up eliminate the formaldehyde products though...)

So is OPI your favorite brand? Or do you not go by brand and rather by color?
ReplyDeletefor me, i think OPI has the most variety and as far as chipping it's not as bad as chanel,
ReplyDeletebut i think chanel's colors are more 'special' and exclusive?
i'm anal about that, i'll wear OPI for every day stuff, and bump it up to chanel for special occasions.
