I love how just looking at this photo (ignoring the amount) they look like normal OPI polishes, but they are actually mini polishes. And I -love- them. Whilst I’m not the biggest fan of the applicator (big too small for my wide nails), the amount is perfect.
I mean… is it even common for people to finish the traditional 15mls that are the standard bottles? I think my most used bottle thus far is Bubble Bath (perfect nude pink!), which I’ve probably used about 10+ times, and whilst you can tell it has been used, I’d say it still almost looks brand new! And at $20AU, it’s not cheap for a bottle of nail polish (tho I order all my polish online, waaaay cheaper!)
Compare them to these 3.75ml bottles which are around $6-7 each, and I think in general it’s much more cost effective to get some variety in your collection (you know, if you insist on buying OPI!). But most importantly, they are soooo cute!

Oh my gosh, this is the best news EVER! I love OPI, but it’s fairly pricey (for my student budget), and I never finish my polishes. Can’t wait to pick some of these up~ <3

Dude! Come to Australia, I have some I can give you! <3 <3 Props to you for having such great fashion and beauty taste as a student! Back when I was studying, I wore the same sneakers for 4 years straight @____@
OPI has still one of the more $$ polishes out there, so this is one way to enjoy it without breaking the bank =D And and… well… cute!!

I’ve seen them! They’re sooo adorable. And you do have a point there, nail polishes tend to last forever so we don’t really need the big bottles. I got a few OPI nail polishes (full sized ones) from ebay from a US seller for around $10 each, where do you buy yours online?

I get mine from transdesign.com, the shipping tends to be pretty high so I try to go in with a friend when I order. It’s not as bad now given our strong dollar tho π
Violet says
Minis? That is a fantastic idea! They look adorable all lined up like that ^_^
Celina says
I totally should have photographed them with a normal sized bottle in the middle to show the difference… HMM!! Maybe I will! XD
Violet says
Ow yes please! I would love to see size comparison π
Melody says
These are so so so so cute!!
And I love the colours in the picturee <3
Kelly says
Do you have any idea what the light pink right in the middle of the second photo is called? I’ve been looking for it for ages, but the minis don’t have the names on them. It’s my favorite color ever, and if I could find a full size bottle of it, it would be the best thing ever.
Celina says
No I’m sorry π I tend to write the names on the bottles down when I first get them because the lack of names annoys me too! But this photo was taken a while ago and I’ve actually given away many of these mini bottles to friends now π Wish I could have been more help!
