NOTE: The following giveaway is open to Canadians only.

Whew! It’s been quite a week – OPI and Nicole by OPI Week to be exact! Today is the last of FIVE full collections that I’ve featured on my blog. As always, if you love nail polish… and on-trend lacquers that are heavily-pigmented, super rich, long-lasting and chip-resistant… then you’re at the right place! Read on friends – here’s your chance to win OPI’s Oz The Great and Powerful for Spring/Summer 2013.

“OPI is very excited to take this fantastical journey with Disney,” explains Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director. “Inspired by the magic of Oz The Great and Powerful, this SoftShades collection captures the whimsy seen in the film.”

The new Liquid Sand nail lacquer – What Wizardry is This? – offers a never-before-seen look with a pebbled finish that lightly shimmers with fine glitter particles. With a mix of soft crème and warm glitter shades, the line is ideal for layering to create rich, complex looks.

Oz The Great and Powerful by OPI includes the following shades:


What Wizardry is This? – a textured, matte finish infused with reflective sparkle.
Lights of Emerald City – White confetti adds city girl flair and style to nails.
Don’t Burst My Bubble – Don’t wake me…I’m dreaming about puffy clouds of white.
When Monkeys Fly! – I’m simply bananas for this gold confetti.
Glints of Glinda – Only a good witch could turn beige from meek to chic.
Which is Witch? – Is this silver glitter with iridescent sparkle or the other way around?
I Theodora You – This adorable, sheer pink is bewitching on you.

I find the colours of this collection to be very harmonious and authentically perfect for layering. I’m not really a nude or neutral polish person, but the endless colour combinations brought about by the glitter and sparkle can make for an interesting application, indeed.

(For in depth swatches of the entire Oz The Great and Powerful collection head over to Chit Chat Nails, where you can see some of the more intricate combinations at play.)

Oz The Great and Powerful by OPI nail lacquers contain no DBP, Toluene, or Formaldehyde, and feature OPI’s exclusive ProWide Brush for the ultimate in application. The collection will be available beginning March 2013 at Professional Salons and Spas for $10.95 CAD. Click here to visit OPI.

WIN IT!!!

  18. All seven of these fashionalble 2013 colours are Fabulous!. ‘When Monkeys Fly!’ is a wonderful combonation of browns with blue hues and silver. I would wear any of these colours and think that they are suitable for all ages.

  28. I love “What Wizardry Is This?” since I’m a great fan of the matte nail polish look—and it has a hint of sparkle, which to me adds even more “magic!” I also love “Glints of Glinda” since the light tone is neutral enough to make anyone’s nails look stunning! Other than that, I’m a good witch at heart. Glinda’s for me!

    What a gorgeous giveaway! Thanks so much! I WOULD LOVE TO WIN THIS!!!!

  36. I haven’t looked at chit chat nails yet, but I’m thinking this collection would be great for nail art. Reverse French manicures, half moon manis, dots and stripes. They’re perfectly complementary, or harmonious as per Lena!

  44. Lena…I love Glints of Gilda…the good witch. I remember watching this for the very first time…I started crying when the bad witch started to melt. My friend told me that it was ok, that was the bad witch not the good witch.

  57. I love the I theodora you as I am really into the pinks. I just find you can use them any time of year with any color clothing, my duaghter however would love the what wizardry is this, as she loves the darker bolder colors

  99. I love the Lights of Emerald City because I think my toes would be all sparkly and pretty when the suns rays shine on them. Man I miss summer!!!

  114. Lights of Emerald City – I can really see this on top of red or black polish but it would be great on its own too.

  131. I think my girlfriend would like Lights of Emerald City best cause she likes all things that sparkle!

  170. Lights of Emerald City is my favourite because I LOVE GLITTER and it looks like it would be a great glitter polish to use over/with other colours as well as all by itself without being too much.

    In Response To Your Question Of What is your favourite shade from the new collection? Why?
    I Don’t Have A Favorite Shade Because I Don’t Wear Nail Polish But
    I Like One Of The Nail Polishes Names “When Monkeys Fly”
    Thank You For Having This Giveaway!!!!!!!!

  255. “Don’t Burst My Bubble” is my favourite. I’m hoping it’s a close match to the original, off-white version of OPI’s Bubble Bath. The closest dupes I’ve found so far is “So Many Clowns So Little Time” (also OPI) and Wet N Wild’s “2% Milk”. My fingers are crossed that this one will be just as good.

  290. What Wizardry is This? I love that its got some sparkle without being the massive chunks and I love the matte finish. Its perfect

  299. I like Witch is Which because it sounds like it shows as different shades or sparkle depending on the angle and how the light reflects off the polish

  312. I like these colours, they’re quite mature – perfect for the office! I think Lights of Emerald City looks beautiful, I’d love to see how it looks on someone’s nails!

  314. Lights of Emerald City is my favorite because it’s so pretty and it would go with so many different outfits!

  317. I would love to try “what wizardry is this” because I have never tried the sand polishes before.

  333. I think ‘What Wizardry is This’ looks very interesting! It is definitely my favourite of the bunch! Thanks for the giveaway!

  336. My favorite is What wizardry is this. It is beautiful. matte to be more subtle and has sparkles for drama. Love it!

  337. I am a neutral/ nude polish kinda gal and I love this set! – especially ‘Don’t burst my bubble’ and ‘I Theodora you’!
