OPI New Arrivals

The Pirates Of The Caribbean collection is available now in limited colors. It’s so popular that quite a lot of the colors are sold out, even from our US supplier!

For swatches, you can always refer to Scrangie’s awesome swatches.

OPI Shatters
One of the newest trends to hit the nail polish community are the new shatters. Almost every brand is coming out with their versions, but of course, we’re highlighting OPI’s shatters. There are quite a few different colors available right now, black, silver, red, three shades of blues, and more! Just Google up OPI shatter swatches, and you’ll see many swatches. Availability is constantly changing, as these are some of the most popular picks right now, but don’t forget, you can choose to pre-order them if we’ve run out of stock. The shatters are slightly more expensive (RM35) as compared to the regular colors, but it’s so much fun using them!

Coming soon – Serena Glam Slam colors, the new Halloween 2011 mini sets and Essie’s Matte About You!

New Features

A loyalty program was launched in the beginning of June 2011, to reward all of Slammin’ Tips’n'Toes customers. In a nutshell, for every RM1 you spend, you collect 1 point. These points can be accumulated, and used to redeem cash vouchers for your next purchase.

China Glaze Crackle Giveaway

If you’re into nail trends, you must have heard about OPI’s Black Shatter, and how it sold out almost across the world the moment it came out. I saw it being sold on eBay for 20USD (equivalent to RM60+)!

China Glaze recently produced their own line of shatter polishes, which they called “Crackle”, and instead of just one color, there are six colors available! These also sold out pretty quickly, but I managed to get hold of one set comprising of all six colors. Instead of putting them up for sale, I’m offering them for FREE!

China Glaze Giveaway

OPI Christmas sale

Update – The sale is now over, thank you to all who have supported Slammin’ Tips’n'Toes during this period. For frequent updates, become a fan of our Facebook page.

So, as promised, I’m having a Christmas / New Year’s sale on selected OPI colors.

All colors except the new arrivals are at RM26, and…for over 70 colors, I’m offering a 3 for RM70 promotion! If you only want to purchase 1 or 2 bottles instead of 3 from this category, the price will be RM25 per bottle.

Email me the colors you’re interested in, and I will reply on the availability, total price and banking details. Once I have replied your emails, the colors will be reserved for 24 hours only. If I have not received payment to my Maybank account after 24 hours, they will be made available to the public again. During this time, I will try my best to update product availability on this website only (Facebook albums and LowYat posts will only be updated after the sale is over).

As always, all sales must have their T&Cs, so here they are:

  • Sale runs from 17th December 2010 till 1st January 2011, 11:59 pm.
  • This sale is not valid with any other promotions / discount codes. If you have a promo / discount code, the normal price of RM27 per bottle still applies.
  • No COD, so don’t ask! I will consider it if you purchase more than 10 bottles (around Damansara area), but payment has to be made first, and is non-refundable (too many people have not shown up!). And non-transferable (after payment has been made, you can’t change your mind and pick other colors instead of the ones you have originally chosen).
  • Depending on stock availability, colors from the 3 for RM70 category may be removed, so if you see something you like, grab it fast before it’s gone!
  • Due to large number of orders, it may take a few days for your package to go out
  • Slammin’ Tips’n’Toes reserves the rights to amend any terms and conditions.
