OPI Burlesque
A Dash of Razzle Dazzle!
I have never been that into accessories, I tend to go the bare minimal on nights out and stick to the earrings or if I am feeling adventurous maybe some bangles or even a ring. For this reason I decide to express my ‘creativity’ through my nails. If I’m wearing all black, I’ll go for a bright colour like Coral  so when the new OPI Burlesque came into the Beauty Features offices, needless to say I was very excited.

OPI normally launch a range that coincides with new movie releases such as their Alice in Wonderland range or Shrek Forever but I think Burlesque definitely takes the crown for the wow factor!

This new range has been inspired by the new movie Burlesque starring Cher and Christina Aguilera. This movie has a 20s, Old Hollywood feel to it with lots of sparkles, platinum blonde hair and fringed dresses - a style that never goes out of fashion and OPI certainly doesn’t fail with their range.

OPI nail varnish is definitely the best long lasting nail varnish around, I have tried every brand out there and maybe it is just me and I am prone to chipping but I spend half my time fixing the varnish after 2 days! With OPI though I could enjoy a pleasant few days before re-applying unless of course I was watching a nail biting movie of course!

The OPI Burlesque range screams Glitz and Glamour with eye catching colours such as Sparkle-icious, Simmer & Shimmer and Show It and Glow It, that I will be definitely be investing in. It’s not only the colours I enjoy ‘ooeing’ at but also their names. OPI have always separated themselves from the rest with humorous and creative names for each nail varnish.

Just note: Upon researching the OPI Burlesque range I discovered that one of the colours was not the same as it appeared on the OPI website - The Show Must Go On looks like a bright vibrant pink online, but when it arrived to our offices, was more like a red sparkly velvety colour. So if you are looking for that sort of fuchsia pink I would recommend the Pompeii Purple which unlike The Show Must Go On looks exactly what it looks on the tin!
But they are fab, and I do think you should all enjoy the sparkle.
