My OPIs are here!
admin January 29th, 2010
Sick of having to pay $20 a bottle of OPI, I resorted to eBay and placed an order for 2 bottles of OPI polishes and the OPI Nail Polish Lacquer Thinner (I asked some SA for some thinner and they said they haven’t heard of them before…). And because I couldn’t find any Seche Vite fast drying top coat, I ordered that too.
Couple days ago, we got a call from the Australian Post informing us that we had a package that smelt very strong and there were leakages. Knowingly, we told them what it was. How disappointing!
Yesterday, we received the package and it was wrapped with a plastic bag. To my relief, the 3 bottles of nail polishes were fine… It was the thinner that leaked in the post through the bag/envelope and all! That was weird because I initially thought the thinner would be the only thing what hadn’t leaked because of the plastic bottle! But I was pleased as it was the least important to me at this stage!
The I checked out why it leaked. The poster actually wrapped it nicely, so it wasn’t their fault. What I think is the bottle itself induced this leakage. So sigh of relief that I’ll be able to keep buying polishes overseas… but don’t think I’ll buy the thinner! Plus, even thought half of it leaked (full bottle is 60 ml), I reckon it’s plenty of the stuff cos I only need a few drops at a time, and won’t be needing it any time soon!
So big smiles there after expecting the worst! Now to try the colours on me… =]
