My bosses are so cute, they let all their female employees do a grab bag and pull out an OPI polish...so that's how I ended up with This beautiful color :) So happy I got this one

Really pretty Dark Teal. Formula was great - and removal was a breeze, which was very surprising. Then again, I only needed two coats as opposed to my usual three?
It's a bit dark under fluorescent lights - it almost looks like a very dark green. In daylight it's beautiful.

This is one of my favorite OPI colors, next to the British Bus Red or whatever it was they put out several years ago... Double Decker Red, that's the one. Anyhow... Really love Ski Teal We Drop, and am so sad that I've lost my bottle of it. No idea where it went. But, oh yay!, I'm happy to see it's still available. I'll have to obtain another bottle. :)

The names are so clever, I can't stand it. I work this color with a matching blouse to a business meeting and noticed a stronger amount of respect. It's not girly like a pink or pastel but has an edge that says, I'm not playing with you. Girls own blue now. It was easy to apply. I tend to apply two coats with a top coat. Color tends to stay up to two 10 days. I highly recommend it to put in your power arsenal.

I like this polish but I found it was a bit more green than blue and I wanted it a smidge more blue. The polish lasted for a long time, went on easy, dried fast, it's great stuff!

Love this teal creme. It is so striking and unusual - definitely the kind of color that people notice because it's so different. I use two coats.

It's very dark (in some lighting it looks almost black) but yet so very appealing to me. Just loving it!

I really like this polish! I like the fact that it looks black from far away. I feel like it looks sophisticated. I will repurchase.

This is my favorite polish hands down. LOVE the color, LOVE the application, LOVE it all around.
I find OPI polishes tend to chip earlier than some other brands, but I don't care when it comes to this shade. Plus, I change my mani every three days or so, so it doesn't really affect me that much...

On me, the polish dries a tad bit darker than shown in the bottle but it's a great sophisticated teal none the less. Great for a gal who likes to look classy and current. The application is great, it goes on so smooth and two coats is enough for full coverage. The cream texture also lends itself well for glitter and nail art if you're into that.

As with any dark nail lacquer or ANY for that matter, (IMO,) you'll want to use a base coat. If you don't use your base coat with dark polish shades, you're going to have a bad time... Stained nails can be a pain to deal with. This OPI polish is no exception.

I adore this shade, I'm usually wearing it at all times... I'll keep buying it as long as they make it!

I don't usually wear blues or greens..but this is such a sophisticated creamy teal. It looks great on long or short nails, and applies like a dream.

Absolutely love this color, especially for fall. Beautiful dark teal that is more on the blue side. Good pigmentation and consistency. Same great quality as most OPI creams. I think it's more sophisticated than your typical teal polish. Would certainly repurchase.

Beautiful color! I really loved OPI's Swiss collection, and Ski Teal We Drop has to be my favorite color from the collection! It's a beautiful dark teal creme. It's extremely pigmented- you could get away with one coat if you wanted to, but I do 2 coats out of habit. I think it's classy and edgy at the same time. One of my favorite polishes.

Disappointed because I thought it would look teal. It is so dark that it looks almost black, navy blue at best. Definitely not teal like it looks in the bottle. That said, it's great for what it is! If you want a nearly-black blue, this might make you really happy. I like it a lot in that context. It will have a place in my rotation, just not as a teal. 2 lippies as a teal, 4 or 5 lippies as a vampy black-blue. P.S. I know the pictures above look teal, so maybe the formula differs from bottle to bottle? On me, it looks like the middle picture if not darker. Still looking for the shade that will be what those other two pics look like!

The best thing is I LOVE THE COLOR. It's so rich and cool, and elegant all at the same time.
PROS:
- Good applicator, very easy to apply on to the nails evenly.
- Color is awesome and rich enough. I only used single coat and it's already awesome.
- Dries quick enough.
CONS:
- Stains my nails if I don't put a base coat.
- Staying power only about 1-2 days, even with a top coat. Need to touch up.

Ski Teal We Drop is a beautiful colour. it applies opaque, creamy, evenly and needs only 2 coats. wearability is also fine, just very small chips after a day but you can easily touch it up for another day of wear.
now that that's out the way i can talk about the amazing colour! i postponed getting this after a long time because i already had Boots No7's 'Totally Teal', but that had awful wearability and was so awkward to apply. but the main difference was that 'Totally Teal' is much greener and not as rich. Ski Teal We Drop is like an 'inky' teal because it's very rich and dark, but still with that clear teal. in some lights, this looks like a bluey black forest green, in some lights a dark dusky cyan blue and in other lights just pure teal. but the colour is always distinctive and beautiful. this is definitely one of my favourites from OPI. no complaints!
recommend.

This is a very dark teal-navy creme polish from OPI. It applies smoothly, opacity is great (almost a 1-coater), and goes well with my SV topcoat. I like wearing this Fall-Winter.

I saw this in the clearance section at my local Kroger, marked down from $7.00 to $3.99! So I just had to pick it up. It is a very opaque color, only needing one coat ( but you can use two if you like.) and dries faster than some of my other polishes. Is a dark teal color, with no glitter or shimmer.
I am in love with this color and will repurchase!

One of my most favorite OPI colors to date. Just love this one. I don't buy many nail polishes for myself (I'm more of a "go to the salon and let them do it" girl), but I HAD to get this one. It's a beautiful muted teal creme with navy undertones. No shimmer, no glitter. Applies like a dream; smooth as glass when dry. Wears great with my Seche Quick Dry topcoat. Opaque with one coat (but I always do 2 as I like it a little darker anyhow). To me, this color...while being unconventional....is just as wearable as any "neutral" because it's not loud, or shimmery. It's understated while still being "different".

I got this colour on sale for $13, it's usually retailed at $26ish NZD. I love it, and it was fine with just one coat which is a very nice surprise, but a few times I painted without enough polish on the brush so I applied a second coat on those nails. Otherwise, it's definitely a one coat polish. The colour is gorgeous and true to the bottle.
