We’re continuing with my Great Blog Catchup of 2026™ and it’s time to finish FALL. Yes, on May 1st, it is obviously the last day of fall and soon it’ll continue on into winter, this is how seasons work (well I guess they do in the Southern hemisphere), and it’s not because I didn’t blog for months and it just all makes sense obviously.

So yes, today we continue on through our journey of 2025 OPI releases. For each seasonal collection, they’ve been releasing 12 shades in the regular lacquer formulas, and then 12 different shades in the Infinite Shine formula. I already reviewed the regular lacquer shades, which you can see here. If you haven’t read any of my other Infinite Shine reviews, I’ll give you a quick overview on what OPI says makes it different and special.

The Infinite Shine shades are the ones with the silver caps instead of black, and they run a few dollars more per shade than the regular lacquer. They’re more expensive as OPI claims they’re a long lasting formula that can deliver up to 11 days of “gel-like” wear. These are not gel shades, just gel-like. (If it’s a true gel formula, it’ll be in an opaque bottle as light can cure it). As always, I swatch so often that I can’t fully speak to the longevity. So I’ll be reviewing these shades by color and application, and from there you can make a purchasing decision! In the end you decide what to do with your own money!

These are still available from Beyond Polish – a site I absolutely love and always recommend! When shopping there you can use code “GingerlyPolished” for 10% off your purchase (that is an affiliate code so I would make a tiny bit of commission if you use it. If that makes you uncomfy at all, absolutely no worries at all!)

Let’s get on into the swatches!
