O.P.I Nail polish - staying power !

I have been testing O.P.I Nail Lacquer to see how long it lasts and if it chips or smudges at all. 

I have used O.P.I for a few years now and have always thought it is one of the best polishes out there in the professional world but I have never actually tested it out so here it is, THE TEST ! 

The nails below are just after being polished

To apply I prepared the nails with O.P.I start to finish polish

I then applied 2 thin coats of O.P.I 'purple with a purpose'

and finished off with a clear top coat of O.P.I start to finish polish.

 These nails below are after a week!

This particular client works on computers so uses a keyboard everyday and is also a house wife doing general house hold chores everyday.

As you can see only the end of the middle nail has chipped and they have lost there shine a little.

I think these nails have lasted extremely well and have proved my theory as O.P.I is a brilliant nail polish.
