OPI 4 In The Morning

Danas predstavljam lak koji je neočekivano našao put do mene. U pitanju je crni "saten" iz prošlogodišnje praznične kolekcije, koju je OPI uradio u saradnji sa Gven Stefani. Ovi lakovi, poput klasičnih OPI lakova, imaju široku četkicu, 15 ml i koštaju koliko i obični OPI lakovi. Hvala OPI Srbija na prilici da ga probam.

Today I have a polish that had quite unexpectedly found its way to me to show you. This is a black "satin" from last year's holidays collection OPI and Gwen Stefani had made. Like regular OPI polishes, these come in 15 ml bottles, have flat brush and cost just as much as the regular OPI polishes. My thanks go to OPI Srbija for giving me a chance to try this one.

Posle linije lakova sa efektom brušene kože, OPI je odlučio da izbaci i par lakova sa "satenskom" završnicom. 4 In The Morning (NL G29) je skoro crni takav lak. Nije u pitanju klasičan mat lak, ali lak nije ni sjajan. Ima veoma fin raznobojni šimer koji bi trebalo da dočara izgled satena, ali mene konačni izgled više podseća na neopren ili gumu. Naravno, zbog specifične završnice ovaj lak se ne nosi sa nadlakom. Vi možete da stavite nadlak, ali time se ubija posebnost 4 In The Morning. Zanimljivo mi je što s jedne strane deluje veoma elegantno i prefinjeno, a sa druge strane i sirovo, grubo. Ide i uz svečanu toaletu i uz farmerke i motorku.

After a line of suede-effect polishes, OPI has decided to make a couple of satin finish polishes. 4 In The Morning (NL G29) is an off-black such polish. It isn't a regular matte polish, but it is far from being glossy. It has very fine shimmer in several colours, which I suppose should evoke the look of satin, but it reminds me more of neoprene or rubber. Of course, due to this special finish, 4 In The Morning isn't meant to be worn with top coat. You can use top coat, but it will take away from the speciality of this polish. What is interesting to me is that this polish looks very elegant and refined yet raw, rough. It goes well with both classy evening outfit and jeans and biker jacket.

Formula ovog laka je prilično tečna. Poput drugih mat lakova ističe nepravilnosti na noktu i valja ga mazati pažljivo, a ako imate brazde na noktima treba da nanesete dobar ridge filler pre nego što namažete ovaj lak. Savetujem nanošenje tanjih slojeva. Zbog visoke pigmentacije dva sloja bi trebalo da budu sasvim dovoljna za punu boju i jednaku pokrivenost. Brzo se suši pa i ako vam budu potrebna tri sloja to neće predstavljati problem. Trajnost mu je kraća nego lakovima koji mogu da se dodatno učvrste nadlakom, ali bolja nego klasičnim mat lakovima koji se mažu bez baze.

This polish is quite runny. Like other matte polishes it can emphasize any irregularities on nails so care should be taken with the application. If you have ridges do use a good ridge filler beneath 4 In The Morning. I suggest applying thin coats. It takes two coats for even colour and coverage because it is highly pigmented. It dries fast so if you happen to need three coats of polish it shouldn't be a problem. It lasts shorter than polishes you can additionally firm up with top coat, but longer than regular matte nail polishes that aren't applied over base coat.
