OPI Won for the Ages
OPI Won for the Ages polish is the usual high quality nail polish that OPI always seems to deliver.This particular polish is part of the Less is Norse collection of Infinite Shine Long-wear System polishes. It is a mid green cream polish. Maybe a bit brighter than a mid-grass jade colour. It's a stunning colour and I really love it.I needed to apply 2 coats to get full coverage and it dried surprisingly quickly considering I haven't used a top coat. It's hard within 30 minutes, but not fully cured. I recommend a quick dry coat if you need it to be fully hard quickly, but even then it will need some curing time.Be warned that this green polish does stain your nails (like all green polishes!) so definitely use a base coat to help minimise the staining as much as possible.Once on, it has a lovely glossy shine. If you want a gel like effect use the infinite shine top coat (the one in a black bottle).This is a really fab colour, I've not got anything else like it in my collection so feel sure it will get lots of use out of it!

Looks like gel
I've not used anything from this brand before but usually do my own gels and have been wanting to do it less and didn't realise a product like this existed.It definitely does give more of a gel look than a standard nail varnish would. It applies quite thick but maybe that's down to the user.I finished it off with the same brand top coat but used a different base.I'm quite impressed with these and will more than likely invest in the base to have the whole set up.I think it does dry quicker than normal nail varnish but still does take a while, maybe an hour.When actually apply the colour (step 2) it can become a bit tacky if you're not quick to putting on the full coat but again I think this comes with practice

OPI Nail Varnish Infinite Shine
Although this is the step 2 of a 3 step nail varnish system, I really wouldn't worry if you only want to buy the colour and not the base and top coat. Or just use a base and top coat that you already have. Or just use the colour and a top coat. I think it's perfectly okay as a nail colour on it's own.So, the colour I got was Won for the Ages - which I'd describe as a Spring Green. The nail colour I received was pretty close to the colour I saw on the monitor - it's a nice shade for spring/summer, especially if you have a tan (or if you are going to see Wicked).I am choosing to use it without a base or top coat, I just don't have the time to spend that long on my nails. So application wise the first coat was streaky with my nails still clearly visible under the colour (I would expect this to be better with a base coat). It dried reasonably quickly. With the second coat I think I got about 95% colour coverage, there was just one nail I wasn't completely happy with. The second coat obviously took longer to dry. I didn't use a topcoat.It lasted really well, which is what I'd expect from OPI nail varnish. I did have some slight chipping on day 2 but it still looked good. When it came to removing the colour, it came off quite well, I did have a little green staining / residue around the cuticles but nothing major and I expect if I had used a basecoat this wouldn't have happened.Overall - thought it was a good nail varnish and I would definitely choose another shade from this range. (Probably one of the gorgeous purples.)

A great alternative
I'm impressed by the quality of this OPI nail polish. This is a great alternative to gel polish. It can be applied easily using its wide smooth brush. The polish covers really well, dried quickly and easily remove with polish remover. Painting a lovely even shine layer to my nail became so easy without the fuss of UV cure. The green shade polish came in a 15 ml bottle. It looks greater when using together with the top & base coat of the same brand, but I'm happy with the polish on its own. This nail polish is not cheap but definitely worth it.

Beautiful
This green is a lovely bright grass green. Love the gel-like formula and dries super-fast [usually my polish dents/scraps as it isn’t dried fast enough]. I like to do 3 very thin coats as it dries by the time I finished the layers on one hand and can do the next. Cute bottle. High-quality. Use in ventilated area.

Great in green
As to be expected for such a Great brand superb quality nail polish!I love the green colour specifically now that summer is coming .Smooth to apply, good coverage 1 coat is ok, 2 will give you the perfect coverage, and will take on average 10-15min to dry in my experience.The size is good enough for many many applications.I would certainly recommend this!

Step two of the nail process…
Totally missed that this is the second step nail varnish.I thought you could use this on it’s own and for almost £18, that’s nutty to me.I may just try it on it’s own, see how it looks.Look how big the box is. And I had ordered other packages this could have easily been included in.

Pretty shade of bright green – easy to apply
I have the 'Won for the Ages' shade of this nail polish which is a pretty shade of bright green (I think it looks a bit brighter than it does in the product pictures on the Amazon item page.) It's easy to open and close the bottle and it seems good quality.The texture is smooth and it's easy to apply with the brush provided. When I put it on, the first coat was touch dry within a minute or so, and the second within a few minutes. Even without a base coat, 3 coats of this were enough for a solid, non-patchy look. I think it feels a bit expensive at the current price of £14, but it does look and feel like it's good quality.I like this nail polish overall and would recommend it if you're looking for a pretty, vibrant shade of bright, green nail polish.

Color of the season
Love OPI, long lasting and has such a wide variety of colors. This green is so soft and creamy on, not glaring apple green!

Close color to what I wanted
So I'm sorta obsessed with the color "Undercover Green" that is used on late model Kia Souls. So I went on a search for nail polish colors that are as similar as possible.I tried China Glaze "Westside Warrior" but it was a little too dark.That's when I went searching my go to OPI and came across "Happily Evergreen After" and figured from the pics that it's close.I just applied it today and I'm pretty happy with it. It's a very close match and a beautiful forest green color that goes on smooth and only takes about 2 coats to cover.I have no comment about longevity since it's only been a couple hours, but the color itself gives it 5 stars from me!OPI never lets me down :)

not great
Normally, OPI does nail polish very well. With this light blue, I did my normal base coat, 2 color, and 1 top. It was very streaky. So the next week, I used 3 coats of color. Looks better, but still a little streaky. I've purchased 50+ bottles of OPI polish over the years. Never an issue.
