OPI Baby Please Come Home

The fourth nail polish from my eBay OPI haul is Baby Please Come Home, a liquid sands polish. I'm kind of late to the textured polish bandwagon, I bought my first one 2 months ago and fell in love with it. The thing I like most about the liquid sand is the glitter! It's jam-packed with glitter which makes it a super opaque nail polish.

Baby Please Come Home is a muted purple glitter. It isn't overly purple and sometimes definitely looks more silver than purple. The formula is beautiful. I used two coats of nail polish on my middle and ring finger and one coat on my index finger and pinky. Adding a second coat definitely enhanced the colour, but I quite like the look of just having one coat. It was dry to the touch incredibly quick. I'm very impatient when it comes to dry time and want to go and do stuff as soon as I'm finished painting.

Here's a comparison between It's Frosty Outside, Make Him Mine and Baby Please Come Home. Beside these other colours it definitely looks purple.

OPI Haul

OPI is my favourite brand (tied with Kester Black). I first started getting into OPI last year when I found out they had a Holland collection. Seeing as I'm Dutch I had to get my hands on the whole collection… obviously. Every since then, I fell in love. Now OPI is the brand I have the most nail polishes of.

Living in Australia is pretty expensive, regular retail price for OPI here is $20. I know if I convert that back to pounds, it'll be the same as what they're sold for in the UK, but $20 for ONE nail polish is a bit excessive! Another thing you need to know about me, I rarely pay full price for anything. I will do anything and everything to find discounts, so that's exactly what I do for OPI's. I found a stole in Melbourne that sells OPIs for $10! Score! Most of them are from older collections, and they don't have a huge selection to choose from, but I have found some amazing colours there including Just Spotted The Lizard, Pink Friday and My Very First Knockwurst. 

Anyway this post isn't about that haul, this is about a haul from eBay. Buying OPI's from eBay can be a bit risky, there are a lot of fakes online so in the UK I always steered clear of that, but desperate times call for desperate measures. I did a lot of research on how to spot a fake OPI (which I'll blog about later), but I found a few sellers that sell the real deal: Alwaysyouthful, Jojammy1 and becc1874. 

My recent order is from Alwaysyouthful. The nail polishes retail for around $11.50 and shipping is $6.95 and stays that price no matter how much you order. I ordered the following nail polishes: 

Koala Bear-y, I Saw…U Saw… We Saw… Warsaw, Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine!, I Love Applause, Baby Please Come Home 

The OPI names seem to be getting longer and longer! I will be reviewing each nail polish individually and will compare them with similar colours.
