Shopping for OPI nail polishes for CNY

I just did my pedicure for CNY and fell in love with my shimmering silver polish recommended by the manicurist !!!


So, it is back to shopping online with my favourite nailsg !! I happily chose two colors from the Swiss Collection :

1. OPI Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous Z18


2. OPI Glitzerland Z19

Both at only $11 each and I am entitled to free postage locally during the month of January !!!

Once again, nailsg will be giving me 2  packets of 2mm rhinestones (30 pieces per pack) free for spending above $20! Again the seller was very prompt and even offered to let my friend do her self collection from West Mall despite the short notice. I think I will stick to this online nail shop for a long long time !!

Updated on 8th Feb:

Although I did not receive my order before CNY, I was still very pleased with my order. This is the first time I have received the order via mail. nailsg has made an effort to be really careful with the packaging for delivery!



Both the nail polishes were carefully wrapped in bubble bags!


Again my order comes with free rhinestones !! Yippy !


I happily applied the OPI Glitzerland Z19 nail polish. Take a look, this is after two layers:



OPI Nail Polish

I am not crazy over having nails done and I am not addicted to pedicures or manicures like many girls. However, for festivals like Xmas or Chinese New Year, I love to dress up pretty and it is a MUST for me to put on nail polish during these periods ! I only started using OPI nail polish last year ( Yah ! I am very slow! Need not remind me ! ) when my elder sister brought me for a pedicure and manicure to prepare for my bridal shoot. My sister is addicted to pedicures and manicures and all her nail polishes are from OPI. She couldn't believe me when I told her I have never heard of this brand! Even the manicurist was nagging at me for ill-treating my nails. In the end , my sister bought me the a OPI base nail polish from them at $30+ !!! She told me that if it wasn't for my wedding , she would just buy one online for me at a much cheaper price!

For this Xmas, I have run out of the base OPI polish which my sister bought. However, when I looked through the flowerpod forum, I couldn't find any one suggesting any website . So I started googling for OPI polish website. I found one - Nail SG. com. There was this OPI Start To Finish - a three-in-one nail treatment that combines a base coat, top coat and natural nail strengthener in one high performance product, selling at $18. However, this was slightly above my budget. So I started to google for alternative and stumbled upon this surprise. The same seller was giving $3 off for this product at Singapore Motherhood Forum. She was giving out free gifts for certain price ranges and even provided free shipping for this month! I happily emailed her and ordered another straight nail clipper , which made a total of $20 ! For $20 and above, I would be entitled to 2 packets of 2mm rhinestones (30 pieces per pack) ! Furthermore, I got my OPI Start To Finish at only $15 !!! Wow !

The seller responded to my email within 10 minutes, telling me that OPI Start to Finish was out of stock and whether I was willing to wait for a week or I would prefer to find an alternative. When I replied her that I was willing to wait and whether payment was required now, she replied me within a minute, letting me know that payment is not required and she would inform me when the shipping arrives. I am was really impressed with the prompt service !

By the next Saturday (think the seller received her shipment by Friday), she informed me about the available stocks. I ordered an extra Xmas gift set and made my payment online and was able to collect the stuff from her within the same day from her place. She specially made this arrangement as we were both worried that I would not receive the shipment by Xmas! To satisfy her customers, she even gave me 2  packets of 2mm rhinestones (30 pieces per pack) free for spending above $20 !!
