You’ve got to wonder sometimes whether OPI actually come up with the names first and then create the polish around them.

Take Not So Bora Bora-ing Pink for example. Awesome name. So-so polish. I mean, if you like pink then this is a nice one to own. Is it a must-buy? No. Work appropriate and ever so pretty – I know many people who will love this one, and like I say, there’s nothing wrong with it, it just isn’t that new or innovative. But not every polish has to be exciting or revolutionary I guess.

Application was absolutely fine – in fact, it was thicker than I originally expected. The bottle has some very pretty lilac shimmer in it, which allllmost  translates to the nail. Almost but not quite. It’s not quite a baby pink as it has more mauve in it than that, but I have to say that it wasn’t enough to keep it in my collection I’m afraid, and I have since passed it on.

Things have been getting a bit out of hand with my collection recently, as I discovered when we were desperately trying to declutter our house in preparation for moving. I’m trying really really hard to de-dupe my stash once I have reviewed something and so I’m afraid that Not So Bora Bora-ing Pink has since left me and gone to a more appreciative home.
