OPI Nail Polish in Metallic 4 Life

First Impression: When I first purchased this nail polish I fell in love with it. The bottle allows you to see the thick large pieces of silver iridecent glitter within the bottle.

Packaging: Metallic 4 Life is in a standard OPI bottle that is relativly large. (0.5 fluid oz)

Price: This nail polish was originally sold in the new Nicki Minaj nail polish collection. However, I puchased this bottle separately. It was around $8.00 from Ulta. However, this is available at any beauty store or even at amazon and ebay at a cheaper price.

Color payoff & Longjevity: This color is not as opaque as it looks in the bottle. One coat will not do it justice. Although this hand photo is not mine I chose one that was similar to what my nails looked like. I applied 2 coats and it showed up beautifully. However, I must say that it is a terrible pain to take this off with acetone and it chips very easily.

Overall Satisfaction: I loved this color however, I was really disappointed with its formula. The glitter is far too big and chunky that it makes a huge mess around the bottle. Unless you smooth out this color right away it will dry uneven and rough to the touch. It finishes very thick and chips off regardless if you apply a thin coat. Another alternative I found was Nicole by OPI in the color, Luke of the Draw. It is the exact same color except the glitter particles are much smaller and the formula is much smoother. I have purchased this one as well and it is my favorite glitter formula.

Great review! The nail colour is really nice. I've always had my doubts when it comes to big glitter pieces in nail polish because of ^^^.
