Hello lovelies! Remember my first post on OPI Infinite Shine formula?
I wasn't completely satisfied with it, but as I gave a really heavy duty to my hands that time I decided to test again with another color in a more "normal situation". (Keep reading after the jump if you are interested in the results!)
So, I have applied the base coat two coats of OPI Withstands the test of Thyme, a gorgeous Seafoam green creme, and a coat of gel topcoat. This is how it looked just applied:
Application was much easier than "Pretty Pink Perseveres" I tested the last time, so the formula was better, less streaky and more self-leveling. I wore this polish for 6 days, I applied it on a Wednesday morning and took it off on a Tuesday evening. Curious to see how it looked like right before taking it off?
I still could not say Infinite shine lasts intact for 10 days "just as gel nail lacquer", because the tip wear is evident, but this time it did much better than when I cooked and washed up for 30 guests! So, as a conclusion I would say, Infinite shine, will last a little longer than you regular nail polish but not as long as a gel manicure and how long that would be will depend on how hard you make your hands work. Maybe if you don't do many household tasks (or whatever other manual activity) you could reach the 10 promised days of wear. It wasn't my case though.
This new range includes 30 new shades plus the special primer and top coat, it will be permanent and available in Switzerland from TOMORROW 10th April 2015 at a recommended retail price of 24.90 CHF per bottle. You can check your nearest point of sale here.
I hope you have liked my review, and if you have also tried (or are willing to try) this new nail polish line I'll be very glad to know your opinion!!

It's a beautiful shade - but the long wear thing isn't important as I change regularly. But if I want I can make a mani with good indies last just as long or longer...
ReplyDeleteExactly Maria! that is what I think, 5 or 6 days is far from being impressive!
DeleteLovely shade of green. I don't demand 10 days of wear, I'd be bored... But if they promise, they should keep the promise.
ReplyDeletethat's right! I change my mani every two days too (by now) but I wanted to be able to count on a couple of long wearing nail polishes :)
DeleteLove the color and the finish of it. The long were is not for me either because I get bored too quickly of my manicures and I need to change them!
ReplyDeleteYes I know, me too! I just wanted this to work in case that once I can't change my mani that often :)
DeleteGorgeous colour and for those who doesn't change nail polishes so often this is great. Me, well I change quite often...lol...;-)
ReplyDeletethank you Ann-Sofie! Even if I also change often I think it is nice to have a couple of long wearing options, just in case ;)
DeleteThis is not my shade of green per se, but I do like it.
ReplyDelete¡Hola guapa!
ReplyDeletejusto me acaban de llegar unos cuantos esmaltes de O.P.I a casa, habrá que probar si realmente merecen tanto la pena como todos hablan o no...
Un beso,

ReplyDeleteThat is a very pretty shade and I'm impressed with the wear time, definitely something that is worth picking up.

What a pretty green :-D Hehe I don't think I could wear the same polish for the length of time! I do like to change it :-D
ReplyDelete¡¡Están muuuy lindos!! ♥
ReplyDeleteIl colore è meraviglioso! Se quelli erano i risultati dopo sei giorni, c'è da metterci la firma! ♥
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the look of this polish, what a pretty shade for summer! That looks like pretty good wear for six days, I'm impressed. I think it looks really cute on your nails also :) xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shade! As for the formula, let's not ask for a miracle product although a week or so is quite ok for me ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis color is amazing! :D
ReplyDeleteI am curios to try this kind of nail polishes too.
I loooove this green ☺☺☺
ReplyDeleteNice colour. Thanks for review
ReplyDeleteNon voglio essere antipatica, ma uno smalto normale O·P·I, con un giusto top coat, mi dura più tempo e in condizioni migliori :O (riesco tranquillamente ad avere i risultati in foto dopo 8/10 giorni)
ReplyDeleteNessun antipatica! è la veritá!! anch'io devo dire che le mie manicure con Seche vite in epoca di studente mi duravano una vita! ma adesso anche con lo Seche vite mi durano di meno. Comunque 5 giorni NO E AFFATTO una lunga durata!!
