This collections feels like it was designed for holidays. Which is fine, except I feel like we got cheated out of an OPI fall collection and that bums me out. OPI fall is usually the one I’m most excited for!
OPI is going back to its roots. They always had puns and catchy names for their polishes. They started going mainstream recently with things like their neon collection etc. these names are basically them.
Oh, wow. I love this collection and I don’t say that about OPI very often. I feel like they used to have collections like this many years ago. I’m impressed.
Hey, I'm in my 60s and liked the names when pronounced properly! I agree that this collection is not real summery. I feel like most of the polishes I either really love or really dislike. TFS!
I love these! Not too sheer at all for me....more of a jelly (which I love!) and I'm one of those who loves pearls and brushstroke-y finishes. I'm definitely getting a number of these!
I ordered a few of these already, but I might need to order a few more after seeing some reviews on them. It's such a pretty collection. I love all the shimmers!
Oh, man, that Scorpio Seduction is amazing looking! I don't care if they are "holiday" looking or whatnot, I just love blue polishes, and this one is stunning!
Thank you for another great review Janixa! I hate this collection 😅 I hate the zodiac theme, the names, the fact that it looks like a holiday collection instead of fall, the sheer shimmers, the brushstrokes . I miss the days when OPI did mostly creams with outstanding formulas inspired by a city or country. It was so much fun to learn about a new destination and its colour palette every season. Like you said, I feel they are trying to become a "younger" brand and I hate it. 2021 was the last good year for OPI imo
Yes, yes, yes and yes. I'd just like to add my pet peeve - OPI and their stupid forced puns have always been my bugbear. I bought the blue one though and it is something new, or at least newER. I think each brand is now putting together huge "collections" which make zero sense so many times a year that we're over-faced. I just cannot get enthusiasm up for 12x4 annually minimum - just the five bigger brands alone that's a couple of hundred a year. It's insane. Wouldn't we all rather just have something new or unique even if only a couple of times a year, together with each brand's base staples? I'm actually wary now cos so often I get the latest new exciting and...oh. It's just X renamed, fabulous. Janixa though, I do love your reviews because they're realistic. A huge beautifully backlit macro is just not how we experience NP. I have to buy online and the amazing OTT marketing puffery usually leads to a small expensive bottle of Disappoint. At £15rrp a whack I want mashed fairy!
As a taurus, i'm glad they gave us a green, yet sad it was a weak, sheer.. nonstatement. 😓 but to echo your sentiment, it's pretty cool they branched out on a collection in general. And 100% agree w/ you on the names.. AND THE SQUARE BRUSH 😂
thank you for the very thorough swatch/review video. I always seek these out with each OPI collection and this is the first video I've found of yours! ❤️
Thanks Janixa! You’ve been a rock star getting these early fall swatch and reviews out. I always enjoy how honest you are with your opinions. These were pretty, but I’m not sure I need any of them. Starting to feel overwhelmed by all of my nail polish!! 😂
Thank you! I was thinking the same thing about these names. OPI usually has such cute names, but these were clunky sounding and seemed forced. I felt the same way about a few of these colors: not very Fall-ish 🤷♀🍁And kind of strange to me that they chose so many sheerer polishes for Fall, which I usually associate with creams, metallics, and other more opaque finishes. My favorites were Scorpio Seduction, Big Sagittarius Energy, and I Cancer-tainly Shine. Loved those holo flakies! ~Caroline
These remind me of indie brand polishes. I feel like OPI is trying to stay competitive with whats popular today. I think they are beautiful. Livwithbiv put feelin libra ted over black and it looked like a galaxy on the nails.
I actually love the OPI brush 😅 It’s my favorite. Sometimes I feel like the curved brushes don’t match the curve of my cuticles and I need that “corner” of the square brush to reach the sharper curves of my nail beds.
This reminds me of the China Glaze collection you just reviewed but not as good. There are some pretty shades but I'm over the pearls. And OPI is more expensive.
It is a very pretty collection, and I agree that the names are goofy. I'm a Taurus and was disappointed by the Taurus shade. No one ever seems to care about the Taurus it seems. Might just have to pick up a few of these polishes
Beautiful collection! Sagittarius, Aquarius, and Scorpio are the stand outs for me. But I do wonder if Sagittarius is to similar to another opi red. It looks familiar somehow. I definitely agree Pisces is the only true pearl finish.
Oh wow, the Virgo polish doesn't suck! 😂😂I always dislike Zodiac collections b/c my sign ALWAYS gets the most boring dull as dishwater beige shade. That gold reminds me of an old H&M polish I have, and have wanted to dupe, so okay OPI you reeled me back in! IA w/ you, this collection is not amazing at first glance but it grows on you? lol Def. more holiday than fall, but there are some really nice ones here esp. the blues and the sparkly Cancer shade. Great swatches as always 😊
The reds are so pretty but you are 100% correct in that this doesn’t feel fall to me, it more of a holiday theme for sure! 🤔 what’s going on lately, these brands need to knock it out of the park and they’re hit or miss this past year. Thanks for your swatches as always 💜
I really love both reds and both dark blue polishes, but I am not crazy about the rest. I totally agree about the ridiculous names. If they want names with puns, they need to be smart. Take a page from the new Painted Polish names!😂
I don’t really buy OPI anymore because of the brush. And the bottles always tilt over and roll around in my drawer. Yes I’m petty. But I’m sure they’ll manage.
Ha! I also think it’s a wee bit cringe the way they’re trying so hard to be cool. I thought timeless was more on brand, they can’t compete with all the indies and boutique options available.
Wow - I would put Gemini and I over another color. It’s a pretty champagne color. The Cancer one is a great holiday polish too. And oh my goodness thank you OPI for Aquarius renegade. I am looking for a new blue and that is fantastic! I did like the reds Sagittarius and Aries…leaning more on the latter. Excellent lighting enhanced the shimmers. Agree about the younger crowd. I would not be able to afford OPI as a young person.
I love the blue that shimmers, I have to get that one. And I Cancer-tainly Shine as well as Feeling Capricorny ♑. Thank you, as always, for your fast swatches. You get your reviews up at lightning pace! Thanks Janixa, I always love to hear what you think about collections first.
I did like half of this collection 🤭. To me this whole collection felt a llitle Indie and I'm not mad, but they need to step up a notch still. I mean, there are A LOT of Indie brands with watery translucent polishes with effects, shimmers and flakies, as opi tried this time 🫤🤷🏻♀️. Now I want to see what they'll offer for Christmas!! I wish they would do a whole collection with the holographic finish in different colors 😍🤩 😅. It reminded me to the Zoya and the Dance Legend holos.
I really wish you could do 1 comparison after you finish the swatches. You are so thorough and you give the best opinions but you could save us so much money just by doing 1 mainstream or drugstore comparison!!! Please consider it!
Ok here’s the thing …. When I first saw this collection at Beyond Polish I did not like it AT ALL. It was not a fall collection. And I still don’t like it. But I’ve come to realize I almost never like an OPI collection at first. Something about them takes me months to like them. For example I just realized a few weeks ago I want to pick up some from the Holiday 2022 collection. Crazy I know. So I will probably like this better in a few months. Yep. Crazy.
I used to say that you can't beat an OPI autumn/winter collection... this feels more like Christmas and I don't like it :-( Ah well, I have some colours from last year that I think are stunning so I shall just stick with those. Thank you for saving me some money! XXX
Blingy fall colors from OPI? And with zodiac names? Well, the holiday season certainly has come early. My favorite one so far swatched is, obviously, I Cancer-tainly Shine (you can tell I'm a Cancer, right?). As always, wonderful swatches!
OPI has always had quirky names like that though-they literally have a color called “Show Us Your Tips”. I don’t think it’s them changing their marketing course imo
I love your channel! I had to LOL when you mentioned the OPI shade names. PUNS are what OPI has always been known for -- in every single collection since 1989, I believe. I personally love how clever the puns are, but yeah, I can see how some might not be a fan. I think the names are cute and fun. 😀 BTW, this Zodiac collection was a miss for me. I don't see it as a Fall collection at all. To me, I find some to be very beachy, as with the shimmery coral copper and the shimmery aqua; while others seem very Holiday. I found this collex to be a mishmash. On the other hand, I think the colors themselves are pretty. I love anything shimmery.
I know I'm in the minority, but I love square brushes. They let me create a sharp edge and don't flood my cuticles like paddle brushes do. Anyway, thanks for the video!
Finally, an OPI collection that doesn't make me want to throw up in boredom or disgust. I know they can make great polishes, but it seemed like they'd lost the thread lately. This one is worthy of the OPI brand. I won't buy all of them, but that's a preference thing, not because they're awful. Nice to see OPI and China Glaze both getting their acts together at long last. Remember what I said about OPI hurting themselves with collections that are too sprawling? Limiting themselves to 12 upped the creativity, because they weren't trying to do too much.
Gemini & I is super pretty!! ok editing to say i actually loved a lot of them! the sparkly finishes are sooo beautiful! i agree i don’t care for the names 🙈
I agree on the names I couldn’t stop laughing . The sheets are pretty would have been better if they were more opaque but I’m glad the formulas were better then the summer collection 😂
I want half of the collection, but I agree doesn't really give me fall vibes. Some of the shade names were cute some where like ehh. Great review Janixa ❤️❤️❤️
I'm kind of happy they did a zodiac collection. Not sure if that's a first for OPI? I'll have to get my sign, Pisces, and definitely the holo one 🤍 Do you think the red shimmer is close to Rhinestone Red-y from their last holiday collection?
I am with those feeling this collection is not really autumn. It could be but the colors didn't seem to reflect that. Maybe OPI is over reaching by putting out so many in one collection? Orly seems to be light years ahead of OPI right now. Wonderful review and I may pick up one or two.
Not feeling much of the fall vibes either. I like about a third of the shades: Sagittarius, Aries, Virgo, and Scorpio. The others I don't think I would buy. 💅
I liked the darker metallic and shimmer ones and that Cancer polish was really cool. The rest though were really sheer or bleh colors. I was disappointed by the Virgo one. It would look like 💩 on me. 😅
Green for Capricorn? Groundbreaking. (I'm a Capricorn and not surprised at all because so many companies do this) I don't like the sheer look and doing a creme base underneath seems so tedious with a large collection like this. The colors are gorgeous regardless of feeling like a holiday collection. I miss the city and country collections, they really are reaching for the younger audience with finishes and themes. Will I buy one or two? Probably. Will one be Capricorn? Eh.
I'm the exact opposite of you, I think I hate most of the polishes and 3 out of the 5 I like, I probably already have! I'm already pulling out dupes and grabbing my swatch sticks so I can compare them in store! Also, these names, oof. Except for Kiss my Aries, which is *exactly* what OPI can do. 🤣
I typically love OPI names, but I thought these were clunky and forced. I can get behind a zodiac collection but I have so many of these colors already and 3/4 of them are not Fall-inspired. The only standouts to me are the Leo gold and the cobalt blue shimmer.
Man I loved the idea of this collection but it’s too holiday & the polishes are sheer. Where’s the fall vibes? 😢 I love you OPI! Why? ☹️ but I am however going to get my horoscope polish which thank gawd it’s a dark color for fall. I’m a Sagittarius lol. I even saw a sneak peek at Essie’s fall collection & not satisfied about it either. But thank you so much for the swatches girl! ❤ you’re the best 😊
I agree about the names.🤨 Sometimes I like a polish more if it has a pretty name and I think the names could have been more ethereal✨ instead of 'punny.'😒
Personally, I'm so sick of Aries themed polishes always being the same bright red! It's a beautiful color, but I'd love some variety. This is definitely biased, though. I'm an Aries who isn't a big red polish wearer 😅
I love the one for my sign : Aquarius! As for the names, OPI has always made their names extremely cringe-worthy. Not sure that teenagers would appreciate them any more than we do. They are like "dad jokes".
They are all pretty but I have every color already. Boring. I really love fall collections with the fall tones but this is nothing like fall to me. I also miss when OPI did the different countries. I wish they would stop gearing things for "younger" ones out there, still a lot of us that love the cremes, etc. As usual your videos are great! Thanks for all the work you do!
A lot of these feel too pastel and too shear for fall. As for the brush-when used “correctly,” the brush actually fans out to make a nice curve around the cuticle. But, most people at home don’t know how to use it that way. I’m old school and that’s how I do my nails, so I have problems with the new, wide, rounded brushes 😂
@@naillacquertherapy but that’s what all the other nail polish brands are doing with their new brushes. If the person don’t use them like you do, it doesn’t apply correctly. OPI and Zoya-basically the same company-are the only mainstreams left that make brushes to be used how nail techs are taught.
Gen X hates puns. It's an eye rolling, or moaning kind of humor. It's weird that they became popular. I forgot to add most Gen X also thinks astrology is absolute bunk. I never met anyone who believed in any of it. It's also funny how every time it's back in fashion it adds something like colors for each sign and more personality traits etc.
Lol at the risk of being cancelled, I am one of those who doesn’t believe in astrology. I’ve only ever associated with people who like it online. Never in person.
@@naillacquertherapy You think they might "cancel" you over that? LOL You are one of the few swatchers that dares to give her opinion on polishes and collections. I'm thinking your followers are used to you.
This collections feels like it was designed for holidays. Which is fine, except I feel like we got cheated out of an OPI fall collection and that bums me out. OPI fall is usually the one I’m most excited for!
I have to agree with this comment 100%
OPI is going back to its roots. They always had puns and catchy names for their polishes. They started going mainstream recently with things like their neon collection etc. these names are basically them.
I guess what I should have said was their puns before were actually cute or funny. These are just dumb.
Oh, wow. I love this collection and I don’t say that about OPI very often. I feel like they used to have collections like this many years ago. I’m impressed.

Thank you! I review all of OPI’s releases!
I really like the polishes for Cancer and Scorpio 🤩
💜💜💜
While OPI is not a brand that I often reach for, I am really loving that Aries shade!
It’s a good one!
The Scorpio color is my favorite. Not crazy about the collection bit I do think they are pretty.
They are! I’m not in love but I like them.
Thanks Janixa! You’ve been a rock star getting these early fall swatch and reviews out. I always enjoy how honest you are with your opinions. These were pretty, but I’m not sure I need any of them. Starting to feel overwhelmed by all of my nail polish!! 😂
Oh I understand that feeling! I destash when I feel that way and it helps some.
I love how your nails look in the reds and dark blues. I agree this collection screams winter holidays .

Hi Janixa. I love your videos. Thank you for your time ❤
Thank you Elizabeth! 💜
I love opi...it doesn't chip and these colors are gorgeous ty for sharing❤️

Really like the reds and blue. in 80and love the mames

First time ever that I'm issapointed at a fall OPI collection. I only liked 1/12. Thanks for your review.
💜💜💜
These remind me of indie brand polishes. I feel like OPI is trying to stay competitive with whats popular today. I think they are beautiful. Livwithbiv put feelin libra ted over black and it looked like a galaxy on the nails.
I actually love the OPI brush 😅 It’s my favorite. Sometimes I feel like the curved brushes don’t match the curve of my cuticles and I need that “corner” of the square brush to reach the sharper curves of my nail beds.
Damn. I guess there really is all types of people out there! I hope curved brushes aren't *too* much of a problem for you! ❤
Brands should let us choose what brush we want and they should have at least 3-4 choices. 😂 I know this isn’t feasible but I still want it lol
This reminds me of the China Glaze collection you just reviewed but not as good.
There are some pretty shades but I'm over the pearls.
And OPI is more expensive.
I’d chose the China Glaze Fall collection over the OPI too.
I really liked this collection overall. The two standouts are the ♥️💙 shimmers😊💗
💜💜💜
I think all of those pearls have shimmer in them, which makes them less old-school "pearl".
Yes!
I honestly LOVE LOVE this collection. I want the entire collection!!! Such a vibe ❤
💜💜💜
I love the polish for libra, cancer, and Scorpio. I don’t think they are super unique to my collection though to run out and buy them
Hi Janixa. Thanks for a great review. Maybe if enough people ask, OPI will change their brush. A girl can dream, right?!
Yes, we can dream!
The reds and the blues are so pretty
Yes they are!
Thank u for your swatch video ❤ Hoping you'll be doing Morgan Taylor's Fall collection next 😊
💜💜💜
I agree. I love OPI but I HATE their brushes so bad ! This collection is interesting.
I hardly use them because of their brush.
It is a very pretty collection, and I agree that the names are goofy. I'm a Taurus and was disappointed by the Taurus shade. No one ever seems to care about the Taurus it seems. Might just have to pick up a few of these polishes
I love the Opi brush❤❤❤❤
You’re not alone here! I wish we could choose what brush we wanted.
The Aries and Scorpio ones were definitely the nicest in my opinion. Loved those
💜💜💜
"Aquarius Renegade" should have been purple rather than "Feelin' Libra-ted", I mean it would make more sense to me.
Libra is tied to purple
@@kogascool I didn't know that, very interesting
It was interesting but I can wait to see ‘em in tjmaxx 😊

I think they do still need to step it up a bit. I hope they do soon!
I’m really suprised that OPI didn’t align the colors witht birthstones. Maybe they went with the elements like air, water, fire and earth?
I’m not familiar with anything to do with the zodiac so I don’t know. But birthstones colors would be nice! Maybe a future collection?
2:39 exactly!!!
Hate the brush!
I really wish you could do 1 comparison after you finish the swatches. You are so thorough and you give the best opinions but you could save us so much money just by doing 1 mainstream or drugstore comparison!!! Please consider it!
I’ll consider it. It’s time consuming which is why I don’t but we’ll see!
Did you check to see if any are magnetic? It seems like a collection they could have snuck one into.
I did! None were. 😒😂
I loved this collection. The names are because it’s a zodiac collection, it works in all the zodiac sign names
I know the names have the different zodiac signs in them somehow. I just think all the puns are dumb.
I love my top 3. 😍I’m a Pisces sun, Gemini moon, and Libra rising. I will get Capricorn because my husband is one. I’m excited for this!!

ok editing to say i actually loved a lot of them! the sparkly finishes are sooo beautiful! i agree i don’t care for the names 🙈
The names suck lol
I like Leo best and Aries I two do 2 coats on my nails I o have few opis 😍😍😍
💜💜💜
What's your star sign?
Leo
I can’t wait to see Morgan Taylor 😊
Coming soon!
@@naillacquertherapy awesome! I can’t wait to see it!!
I agree on the names I couldn’t stop laughing . The sheets are pretty would have been better if they were more opaque but I’m glad the formulas were better then the summer collection 😂
Lol yes much better!
I want half of the collection, but I agree doesn't really give me fall vibes. Some of the shade names were cute some where like ehh. Great review Janixa ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! 💜
@@naillacquertherapy You're welcome 💜💜
I'm kind of happy they did a zodiac collection. Not sure if that's a first for OPI? I'll have to get my sign, Pisces, and definitely the holo one 🤍 Do you think the red shimmer is close to Rhinestone Red-y from their last holiday collection?
Rhinestone is brighter.
Aquarius polish should've been virgos because of September birthstone color, but i still love the virgo polish lol
Yeah, this seems weird for a fall collection. Would've been way better for winter/holidays (especially as regards gift-giving options!).
Agreed!
I am with those feeling this collection is not really autumn. It could be but the colors didn't seem to reflect that. Maybe OPI is over reaching by putting out so many in one collection? Orly seems to be light years ahead of OPI right now. Wonderful review and I may pick up one or two.
I do wish they’d break their collections up into 6 piece collections.
Not feeling much of the fall vibes either. I like about a third of the shades: Sagittarius, Aries, Virgo, and Scorpio. The others I don't think I would buy. 💅
No it’s feels like a winter collection.
I liked the darker metallic and shimmer ones and that Cancer polish was really cool. The rest though were really sheer or bleh colors. I was disappointed by the Virgo one. It would look like 💩 on me. 😅
😂😂
Green for Capricorn? Groundbreaking. (I'm a Capricorn and not surprised at all because so many companies do this) I don't like the sheer look and doing a creme base underneath seems so tedious with a large collection like this. The colors are gorgeous regardless of feeling like a holiday collection. I miss the city and country collections, they really are reaching for the younger audience with finishes and themes. Will I buy one or two? Probably. Will one be Capricorn? Eh.
I miss the country collections too!
I'm the exact opposite of you, I think I hate most of the polishes and 3 out of the 5 I like, I probably already have! I'm already pulling out dupes and grabbing my swatch sticks so I can compare them in store! Also, these names, oof. Except for Kiss my Aries, which is *exactly* what OPI can do. 🤣
😂😂😂
I typically love OPI names, but I thought these were clunky and forced. I can get behind a zodiac collection but I have so many of these colors already and 3/4 of them are not Fall-inspired. The only standouts to me are the Leo gold and the cobalt blue shimmer.
I agree about the names!
the cancer one omgggggg i want it. also i hate tiktok
I’m patiently waiting for the death of TikTok. 😂😂
@@naillacquertherapy AHAHAHAH
Man I loved the idea of this collection but it’s too holiday & the polishes are sheer. Where’s the fall vibes? 😢 I love you OPI! Why? ☹️ but I am however going to get my horoscope polish which thank gawd it’s a dark color for fall. I’m a Sagittarius lol. I even saw a sneak peek at Essie’s fall collection & not satisfied about it either. But thank you so much for the swatches girl! ❤ you’re the best 😊
I have a review of the Essie fall collection up now!
The way you said "tik tok people" had me cackling🤣
They’re a whole kind of different. 😂😂
@@naillacquertherapy And they make me feel like I'm a billion years old😆
Hm...interesting!
I agree about the names.🤨 Sometimes I like a polish more if it has a pretty name and I think the names could have been more ethereal✨ instead of 'punny.'😒
Seems like OPI is doing a lot of puns lately and it’s not as funny as they think it is.
Personally, I'm so sick of Aries themed polishes always being the same bright red! It's a beautiful color, but I'd love some variety. This is definitely biased, though. I'm an Aries who isn't a big red polish wearer 😅
I understand being annoyed with the red!
I love the one for my sign : Aquarius! As for the names, OPI has always made their names extremely cringe-worthy. Not sure that teenagers would appreciate them any more than we do. They are like "dad jokes".
I feel like they’re getting worse lol
They are all pretty but I have every color already. Boring. I really love fall collections with the fall tones but this is nothing like fall to me. I also miss when OPI did the different countries. I wish they would stop gearing things for "younger" ones out there, still a lot of us that love the cremes, etc. As usual your videos are great! Thanks for all the work you do!
💜💜💜
Only one I like is scorpio seduction and I just so happen to be a scorpio. The color just screams water sign!!!
💜💜💜
A lot of these feel too pastel and too shear for fall. As for the brush-when used “correctly,” the brush actually fans out to make a nice curve around the cuticle. But, most people at home don’t know how to use it that way. I’m old school and that’s how I do my nails, so I have problems with the new, wide, rounded brushes 😂
There shouldn’t be a special way to use a brush to get it to work right. OPI’s brush hasn’t had an upgrade in years. It’s time!
@@naillacquertherapy but that’s what all the other nail polish brands are doing with their new brushes. If the person don’t use them like you do, it doesn’t apply correctly. OPI and Zoya-basically the same company-are the only mainstreams left that make brushes to be used how nail techs are taught.
Gen X hates puns. It's an eye rolling, or moaning kind of humor. It's weird that they became popular.
I forgot to add most Gen X also thinks astrology is absolute bunk. I never met anyone who believed in any of it. It's also funny how every time it's back in fashion it adds something like colors for each sign and more personality traits etc.
Lol at the risk of being cancelled, I am one of those who doesn’t believe in astrology. I’ve only ever associated with people who like it online. Never in person.
@@naillacquertherapy You think they might "cancel" you over that? LOL You are one of the few swatchers that dares to give her opinion on polishes and collections. I'm thinking your followers are used to you.
OPI has used those corny names for decades... essentially since the origin of the brand.
They need to move away from them lol
