OPI Italian Love Affair

Some days I just REALLY miss Italy. It clouds my judgment and I end up doing silly things. Like binging on margarita pizza and red wine and digging Italian Love Affair out of my Melmer.

Italian Love Affair is a very light yet bright pink with an almost frosted finish. This polish was released as part of the OPI Spring 2000 Italian collection and one thing is certain, this polish does feel a bit dated.

The formula is a bit of a pain. It’s thin so it needs to be applied carefully. I used 3 coats in my swatches.

This is a polish that, under any normal circumstances, I wouldn’t buy. Or wear. But with a name like Italian Love Affair how could I resist? It’s impossible to go to Italy and not have some kind of love affair; whether it be with the country or the food or the wine or a very charming Italian man.

Italian Love Affair is part of the OPI Classics collection so it can be found at Ulta and, of course, on Amazon. It’s worth noting when I originally bought this polish it was $7.50. The label is still on the bottle.

As always, there are swatches under the jump!
