OPI Passion Nail Polish

Thursday 16 April 2015

I’m back on the nail polish trolley and have been stocking up on some classic shades. Red and coral nail polishes are usually my go to choices but recently, I’ve fancied a little bit of pastel in my life. What I forgot about pastel shades is they’re impossible to work with and something I quickly give up on. Enter OPI Passion!


OPI Passion belongs to the Soft Shades collection and it is the pale pink to end all pale pinks. If you’re looking for a fully opaque nail polish you came to the wrong place. Although Passion is a gorgeous shade it’s slightly difficult to work with and a lot of layers are required for the colour to show up.


The issue with my nails and this nail polish is they’re not exactly in the best of states (thank you yellow nail polish) so trying to cover the hideous of my nails with Passion is pretty much impossible. This is what I get for painting my nails in Chargers colours every game last season; to think the Chargers’ season ended in December last year. Wait, what was I going on about?

When I do have the patience to add layer upon layer of nail polish Passion lasts for a day or so before chipping. Admittedly, I’m not always overly impressed with the formula of a lot of OPI nail polishes and Passion falls into the “underwhelming" category.


The whole pastel shade over my NFL stained nails was never going to be a good idea so who knows what I was thinking when I purchased Passion. I think I was trying to fit in with the pastel trend that always seems to vomit all over Spring.

Maybe Passion is life’s way of telling me that I should just be a little vampire and stick to black. You’d think life would tell me that without me having to spend any money.
