I have another new OPI collection to show you today! Over the weekend I showed you the OPI Brights Collection and today we’re going the other direction with the OPI Soft Shades 2015.
Every year for several years now OPI releases a Soft Shades collection and it’s generally a very nice palette cleanser collection. This one is no different.
Act Your Beige!
Act Your Beige! is an incredibly pale pinky beige jelly. I used 3 thin coats for these photos. Application was a little patchy and after 3 coats there were still some patches.
Put It In Neutral
Put It In Neutral is a pink toned sheer nude. I used 3 coats for these photos.
Chiffon My Mind
I was happy to see this shade in the OPI Soft Shades collection this year. This is a sheer white with subtle pink and blue shimmer throughout. I used 3 thin coats for these photos.
The Silver’s Mine!
The Silver’s Mine! is a lighter silver frost shade. I applied this 4 times hoping for less streaks and it was a no go. This was actually my best shot. While I love OPI, this was a dud for me completely.
Shown is 2 coats.
Make Light Of The Situation
Make Light Of The Situation is an iridescent glitter and shimmer top coat in a sheer pearly base. I used 1 coat over OPI Act Your Beige! and I love this pair up.
Petal Soft
Petal Soft is another glitter top coat in the collection. This is a clear base with matte white hex glitters and larger flowers as well as baby pink hex glitters. I used 1 coat of Petal Soft over Chiffon My Mind which I found to be another pretty combo.
I did have to fish a little for flowers. It didn’t take long, but just a heads up that you may need to do the same.
Overview
Pretty much every shade in this collection are fitting for the OPI Soft Shades collection. Was I overly impressed? Not really. Are they pretty? For the most part, yes. This Silver’s Mind! could have been left out though.
My top picks are Petal Soft, Chiffon My Mind and Make Light Of The Situation.
Price: $9.50 Each

Awww, I love Petal Soft! *o* Definitely must have!
Chiffon My Mind is my favorite, very dreamy!
You have no idea how excited these swatches make me! Yes, I know, I have half a helmer drawer full of soft pinks like those but I still want them!
I’m really digging your three favorites as well! <3
Ohh, these seem really pretty! They’d be lovely with some floral nail art on top!
I really like Chiffon My Mind! This would be a good wedding collection.
Act Your Beige and Petal Soft are my faves!
I’m not a fan of any of these BUT if I had to pick one I would choose Put It In Neutral just because you make it look so good.
These are all really pretty and exactly the types of polishes I’m drawn to. Act Your Beige! is my fav. Also those flower glitters seem outside the box for OPI, I’m impressed! I also feel the silver could have been left out, but I think that’s because in overwhelmed with the sheer amount of silver polishes OPI has put out in the past while.
I like this collection a lot! I have swatched Act Your Beige! and Make Light.. recently and I think Act Your Beige! is very pretty even if it’s so sheer. I used 4 coats.
Ooooh, Petal Soft is really pretty, but I don’t mind you need to fish for the flowers – they can stay right in the bottle :D. These sheers look good on you!
I had no idea OPI was even releasing this collection, haven’t seen much about it at all. I am really liking the soft delicate shades, beautiful swatches too.
Frosts should be illegal!
I really like the first two though!
The colours are lovely, I especially like Petal Soft, it’s pretty!
I love all the soft shades but Im not a fan of all the VNL or Brushstrokes that these have.
