Extra Credit

I’ve never been much of a fingernail polish person (more on that later), but I have always been fascinated by the names. I could spend hours in a store just looking at the different colors and the (sometimes) clever names printed on the bottles. Very recently, I bought my first bottle of OPI nail polish (it was Will You Mari-Achi Me? from the Mexico Collection in case you were wondering) and I found myself pleasantly surprised. The color was beautiful, the application was smooth and the drying time was minimal. And I’m really rough on my fingernails, but it was several days before I noticed any wear and tear like chips or bald patches. (I’m the kind of person who must remove nail polish that is anything less than perfect.) And the real gold star moment was when the polish didn’t transfer onto the pages of the book I was reading when my fingertips brushed against them. Suddenly, I’m a fingernail polish freak and it’s all thanks to OPI and their funny names. Yay!
