O.P.I. Nail Polish Dupes


O.P.I. nail polish dupes 2013 by Barbie's Beauty Bits

I think I could start an eBay store with all of these nail polish I’ve accumulated over the years and this past month for my A-Z nail polish name's series. However, prior to tossing some of the old  polishes that had sat in my drawer for years, I decided to see if there were any O.P.I. dupes.  Some of the polishes nailed it with similarity, while others were darker, finishes varied and some the consistence was different.  Overall, the search was harder than I anticipated, an, although I hate to admit this, some polishes were old, so it was hard to tell the actual color.   None the less, I was able to find enough colors, one for each nail, for this Mani Monday post.

DUPE:  Charla, By Zoya
