Good morning, readers! Did you enjoy my post yesterday of the OPI Infinite Shine SoftShades? If soft colors aren’t your cup of tea, maybe these OPI Infinite Shine Summer 2015 Collection polishes are more your speed. Let’s take a look at 12 new shades that I think are being added to the core lineup of Infinite Shine polishes! They are a rainbow of creme colors with a couple metallics mixed in and I know they would pair well for nail art. Not familiar with Infinite Shine? It’s a three-step process that is supposed to give you up to 10 days of shine and wear, without the hassle of curing with a lamp and removes like regular lacquer.

Before we begin, I want to link back to my original Infinite Shine Review and Wear TestPlease check those out for more info if you haven’t already. To summarize:

  • I didn’t have better wear with Infinite Shines than any other polishes, but that could be my nail chemistry and how hard I am on my nails.
  •  The top coat pulls color onto the brush so I know it would smear nail art if I tried to use it for that. If you are going to use this system as recommended, try nail art on one nail before all of your nails in case it does drag the art.
  • I was sent new primer and top coat bottles so those are what I used for this review. To me, the top coat seemed thinner than my previous experience so they could have reformulated it. However, thinner made for brush strokes visible in the top coat upon drying–which should be easy enough for you to see in the photos below.
  • These polishes were easy to apply, no too-thick formulas that I know some of you commented on while trying the first Infinite Shines.
