O.P.I. Nail Lacquer in A Good Man-darin is Hard to Find

Hey there! Recently I’ve been loving everything orange, and its different shades. I got orange dresses, orange shoes (which I love!) and of course who could forget makeup. So I am currently wearing this amazing shade of nail lacquer by OPI called “A Good Man-darin is Hard to Find”. Hehe, I love the punny name! So I thought I’d share it with you all.

O.P.I.-Nail-Lacquer-in-A-Go

Directions

Follow these steps for a mani that lasts:
– Start by applying OPI Base Coat or Treatment on clean, dry nails with cuticles pushed back.
– For a perfect polish, apply one stroke of nail lacquer down the center of the nail, followed by one stroke along each side of the nail.
– Smooth the surface of the nail with a final stroke of the brush. Then, apply a second coat of nail lacquer, pulling color over the tips of the nails.
– Shine, seal, and protect with one coat of OPI Top Coat, pulling it over the tips of the nails to seal in color.
– For a mani that’s dry to the touch in minutes, apply 2 drops of OPI DripDry Lacquer Drying Drops to each nail.

Price: $9 for 15ml or 0.5 fl. oz. of product

Ingredients: The ingredients are mentioned on the bottom but it’s too tiny. The website says, “No DBP, Toluene, or Formaldehyde”.

Packaging: Well, we all know the classic OPI packaging, with the glass bottle and black cap with OPI written on top. I used to think that it’s really expensive but considering the amount of product that we get, it is value for money, especially considering the quality.

My take on O.P.I. Nail Lacquer in A Good Man-darin is Hard to Find:

So, finally the nail lacquer itself. As soon as I spotted this shade, I jumped, and definitely didn’t lose the opportunity to buy it, lest I regret it later.

It’s not the typical bright neon orange, but rather a beautiful and truly unique shade of mandarin, which as it says, actually IS very hard to find!

As for the texture, it goes on opaque in the first coat, but I applied two coats just to be sure of it not chipping too soon. I use with a base coat and a top coat to increase the longevity. Right now, it’s been 5 days since I applied it, and it has not chipped at all, so I’m really happy about that! It goes on really smooth, and looks as if you just stepped out of the salon. It’s very easy to apply in two strokes because of the brush.

Since I applied it, I have received so many compliments from everyone! Like, even from people who don’t know the difference between orange and pink (yes, I have friends who are like that). So, in addition to everything else, this also is a great confidence booster to feel good about yourself!

I would definitely keep buying this particular shade again and again; I am totally in love with it! I just hope it stays available.
