OPI-Up Front & Personal

This is one of the rare nail polish bottles that I bought in China, rather than Hong Kong, where everything is cheaper and more important-available.

Ovo je jedan od retkih lakova koje sam kupila baš u Kini, s obzirom da je sve jeftinije u Hong Kongu, a i dostupnije.

I've seen quite a few beauty brands that are cruelty free but still sell in China. I know that this is confusing but I believe they still are cruelty free, even though China has a rule that says that they have to test on animals. If you've ever been to China, you know that rules aren't always enforced. :)

Primetila sam da dosta brendova koji ne testiraju na životinjama prodaju svoje proizvode u Kini. Znam da je zbunjujuće, ali verujem da ti proizvodi zaista nisu testirani na životinjama, iako Kina ima zakon po kome svi proizvođači moraju da sprovedu to testiranje. Ako ste ikada bili u Kini, znate da se zakoni ne sprovode uvek, već selektivno. :)

Up Front & Personal is a light gold creme, packed with glitter and it gives the nails a very elegant and clean look. It is a part of the Brights by OPI collection.

Up Front & Personal je svetlo zlatna krema, prepuna sitnih šljokica koje daju noktima jedan elegantan i uredan izgled. Ovaj lak je deo Brights by OPI kolekcije.

The brush is wide and easy to work with and the polish dries very quickly. This is one of the rare colors that I can wear only one coat of and skip a top coat. On the next photo you can see two nails with one coat and two with two coats of OPI-Up Front & Personal.

Četkica je šira i lagana za upotrebu, a sam lak se suši veoma brzo. Ovo je jedan od onih retkih lakova koji mogu da nosim i kao jednoslojac, pa čak i da preskočim završni sloj. Na sledećoj slici možete videti dva nokta s jednom slojem i dva nokta sa dva sloja OPI-Up Front & Personal laka.

Even though I like full coverage, I find that some colors are very beautiful one-coaters. This is one of them. If you wear only one coat you will get a glittery see through shine and if you add a second coat you get full coverage.

Iako volim da lak potpuno prekriva, primetila sam da su neki lakovi prelepi kada se nanesu u jednom sloju. Ovo je jedan od takvih lakova. Ako ga namažete u jednom sloju dobićete jedan providan šljokičast sjaj na noktu, a ako dodate i drugi sloj dobijate potpunu pokrivenost.

It lasted five days on my nails, with scrubbing in the kitchen, and it didn't get ruined. Even though it's a glitter nail polish, the glitter is very small, so it's easy to remove and there's no need for the foil and acetone treatment to get it off.

Na noktima mi je trajao dobrih pet dana uz ribanje u kuhinji i nije se uništio ni oljuštio. Iako je šljokičast lak, šljokice su sitne, pa se sam lak vrlo lako skida i nema potrebe za onim "folija i aceton" tretmanom da bi se skinuo.

What do you think of this color? Would you wear it as a one-coater or two?
Thank you for reading!

Kako vam se dopada ova boja? Da li biste je nosili u jednom ili dva sloja?
Hvala na čitanju!
