My bottle of OPI "Passion" looks nothing like the color in this photo. What I have is more flesh colored. What is the color in the pic?

This should be Hawaiian Orchid, not Passion, Passion is a much more peach/fleshy colored.

The one that's pictured appears to be the vintage DHI. The vintage should have a silver collar (and my impression was a silver stem as well), however, it appears that some of the vintage formulations have the black stem too. A vintage bottle is likely going to be very expensive and certain, highly desirable batch numbers can exceed an ask price of over $200 on the current market. Having said that, I've never had the pleasure of smelling the vintage version. I own the reformulation myself, which is a black collar and black stem. It's a very nice, powdery vanilla once you get past the heavy iris (lipstick smelling) opening. The one that's pictured appears to be the vintage DHI.

I have been using for months, and gone thru 2 bottles. It should be clear! something wrong with black color, and I would definitely send it back and get refund.

My bottle was not dated. The color was cream looking, and smelled fresh. I have been using for almost a month and beginning to see positive changes like brightness and softness in skin touch. Would invest in another bottle.

My bottle is green, not white, maybe the white one does not have salicylic acid.....just a thought.

I just received a new bottle today and it was brown with a silver cap. I contacted NatureWise and was told that this is the new packaging. They have used up their supply of the white bottles with white caps. It is the same product. I hope this helps.

There is no orange color with this....its like a golden brown. You do not look like an oompaloompa with this at all!! I love this stuff! Don't lather it on like lotion either, one pump goes a long way! Just be sure to really, I mean really wash your hands if you don't use gloves!!! One more thing, people complaining about the smell!? I don't know what they're smelling but it's not this. Seriously, kinda smells a bit like cherries....it's not horrible. Hope this helped!!!

No colors. Just everything else you need. I found Gelish brand of polish lasts the longest. I've tried a cheaper brand but that comes off really fast. I have not tried OPI but plan to.

The color is a deeper red NOT cherry red bright or orange red. Not wine either but more an earth toned red, brown undertones to it I guess is how I would describe it. I didn't want bright red either.

Idk. Mine is greenish and watery. It's not white at all. I do give bottle a shake or 2 to mix it. Maybe it's settlement? I haven ordered another bottle yet. Maybe ask company if they have chg the color.

Edward, thank you for notifying us of the color and taste issue. We are checking into it. Please know, the color should be a very light brown but the taste should NOT be bitter. The taste will be extremely sweet but not bitter. The quality of the product should be fine since the contents are always the freshest available and sealed. If you experience this again, please notify us with the lot number and we will send a replacement or refund your money. Thanks again, Tim

The bottle is black, color on the photo is of the regular nail polish. Gel color is a little bit more beige than the pinkish of the regular polish. This is definitely the gel version

I've been using this stuff for quite a while & I was really put off by the color as well. It used to be so much darker. Mine did not have a bad smell ... it just seemed like they had diluted it. I contacted the company & they said that they have a new "processing system" but they assured me that they weren't diluting it. I don't know if I believe it because it doesn't seem to have the same effects that it had before. With that said, I am still using it.

I don't have the OPI color to compare it to. All I can tell you is this is very bright and very orange.. I would like it better if it wasn't so bright. I would probably not order it again.

Hi Colleen, What kind of lamp are you using? I have the cheap Sensationail LED one and I only do 60 second per coat - 2 minutes seems highly unnecessary unless you're using a UV lamp (which I recommend you get rid of... UV lamps tan/age your hands, go for LED!). What brand are you using for the polish colour? If it's not OPI, that might be why you're having issues. A lot of brands aren't super compatible, especially if you're using a drugstore brand (non-pro) with OPI. I use the OPI base & top coats mostly with OPI colour and it always lasts until I remove it or it grows off. If you find yourself frequently wetting/drying your hands (e.g. a weekend spent at the beach frequently in and out of the water) you might find it starts peeling because that amount of expanding and shrinking of your nails is going to make it difficult for the polish to stay adhered. If you have naturally oily skin/nails it might just mean that gel polish isn't going to work for you. But if you've had gel polish done at a salon and it's worked just fine, then something in your technique isn't working. Finally, get the OPI bond-aid - if that doesn't help the gel polish stick to your nails (I don't use it because I find it makes it too hard to remove), then I think you're out of luck with gel polish. Try shellac (chips like crazy on me but I know it works for other people really well).

That is odd, because my bottle's oil from Nuriva is thick, Orange in color and has a slight earthy smell. You should contact the company.

It's sort of a carmel color. I've gone through 3 bottles and they are all that color so I don't think the color means that it's old or ineffective. I do think it works!
