Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: O.P.I.. RapiDry nail polish
How many times have we been promised, down the years, that a nail polish would dry instantly? Wouldn’t smudge or dent, right after applying? And how many times have we been disappointed…?
All that is behind us, with the debut of O.P.I. RapiDry nail polish, the first truly to deliver on its quick-drying pledge, in our experience. Somewhat cynically, Jo first applied one coat – and it was dry within a few seconds. Cagily, a day later, she applied a second coat – and a glossy top coat soon, after – and again, completely rock solid in a couple of blinks of an eye.
This is actually a little bit life-changing: something you can whizz onto your nails to make them look shiny and groomed right before you head out the door. What we would say is: the red – perfect, pillarboxy Secs Appeal – which we tried really does need the O.P.I. RapiDry Clearly Fast top coat, for a good shine, but we’re not so sure the same would be try with the shimmers. (Hoping to check that out.) We’ll be using that as a base coat, too, next time, as it does double-duty for base and finish.
The wear is good, three days in. (Although touching up would be the work of a second, if required.) And as you can tell, we’ve fallen hard – and FAST – for this.
