OPI Breakfast At Tiffany's The Classics 10 Mini Nail Lacquer Pack

Who is excited that Xmas is fast approaching? Now, I wouldn’t say that it's my favourite time of year (call me bah humbug!) but I must admit that I don't mind the gift exchanging part of it. Who doesn't like receiving gifts?! 

Another thing I look forward to when Xmas is approaching is that department stores tend to launch interesting and unique beauty events, which include quirky little gift sets at very reasonable prices. A new launch that has got me pretty excited is the new ‘OPI Breakfast At Tiffany’s collection’. I love getting manicures, but at times when I am too busy to pop into a salon I tend to pamper myself by doing my own nails and my favourite range of nail polishes has to be OPI. I was kindly gifted the ‘OPI Breakfast At Tiffany's The Classics 10 Mini Nail Lacquer Pack’ which I am now obsessed with and wanted to write a mini review as I think it would make a perfect gift for a beauty fanatic like me :)

The reason why I adore this little gift set so much is that you can see that a lot of time and thought has gone through to put together the colour selection and design the packaging. As you can see, the design of this particular gift sets packaging is classy and understated. I love the fact that it has an image of Audrey Hepburn as she is definitely an iconic beauty figure and fits perfectly with the ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ theme. Another cool thing about the packaging is that that the box is divided into a light (top) and dark (bottom) nail sets, which easily slide out of the box without any drama. No fiddling around or trying to rip out the varnishes. 

Super Wearable Light Set

Gorgeous Rich Dark Set

The pack itself contains ten of OPI’s most classic nail varnishes. It has five traditional light colours (Alpine Snow, Bubble Bath, Tickle My France-y, Suzi Nails New Orleans, Madam President). And, five iconic darker autumnal and wintery shades (Big Apple Red, Malaga Wine, Squeaker of the House, CIA=Colour is Awesome and Lincoln Park After Dark). The names are pretty awesome, right? So fun and inventive and I love the fact they are stated on the box below the varnishes as well, just in case you want to go ahead and buy the full size:)

I have always been a massive fan of OPI nail varnishes and own a few of the full-sized bottles which are included in this little gift set! My personal favourites are  ‘Alpine Snow’ which is gorgeously fresh and pristine white shade, ‘Big Apple Red’ which is a real classic and classy brick red and ‘Tickle My France-y’, a unique neutral pinkish nude. I see OPI as a luxury nail brand as the varnishes are always available when you go in for a manicure and pedicure, which also gives them that ‘treat yourself vibe’ for when you want to do our own nails at home.

A few of my favourites:)

As I’ve been getting my nails done professionally recently, OPI nail varnish lacquers are all I’ve been wearing for the last few months. They are formulated to be chip resistant and definitely do last a good 10 days on my gel acrylics which gives me one less thing to worry about. They are also amazingly pigmented which makes it effortless to apply. Although OPI nail varnishes are on the pricier side, I feel they are worth every penny as you can buy something a quarter of the price, which doesn’t have half the pigment or lasting power they have. I don’t know about you girls, but I know I don’t have the patience to keep reapplying my nail vanish!


I usually find the issue with some nail packs is that you tend to wear only some of the colours and the rest get completely ignored. However, there isn’t a single colour that I would ditch in this pack, as the shades are super wearable and perfect for all seasons or occasions. As OPI is such an iconic well-known luxury nail brand, this kit will make the perfect gift for someone who is into all things beauty. 

Wearing Tickle My France-Y

It will also give anyone who is a beginner to OPI nail varnishes a perfect chance to play around with the classic and wearable colour selection. Even though they are minis they are still a good size, and you can get several applications from them. To be honest, I somewhat prefer mini nail varnishes in general, as I barely ever finish a full nail varnish.

This gift set currently retails at £25.46 which I feel is fantastic value for money as an original nail varnish usually retails to around £10-£13! You are getting ten of OPI’s classic shades which will provide you with several applications along with quality nail varnish. Gift set available at John Lewis! This will make a perfect Xmas gift for a friend, sister, sister-in-law or even just to treat yourself :) The rest of the range is also stunning and have nice little gift sets which will make someone happy this Xmas.
