Two OPI mauve sheers going head to head!
Which one is right for you? Maybe they both are! Let’s take a look.
Starting with OPI Put it in Neutral -
OPI Put it in Neutral
Put it in Neutral NLT65 is a cool, medium coverage sheer light mauve pink.
OPI Bare My Soul
Bare My Soul NLSH4 is a wedding season favorite. It’s a light coverage sheer mauve-brown pink and it makes a great base for nail art.
The main differences between Put it in Neutral and Bare My Soul are:
Put it in Neutral is a medium coverage sheer, Bare My Soul is a light coverage sheer
Put it in Neutral is a cooler toned mauve pink, Bare My Soul is a warmer toned mauve-brown pink
What they have in common: same volume of polish in each bottle, same brand, same price
So it really looks like which one you purchase depends on which tone you want (cool or warm), what coverage you want (heavier or lighter), and if an extended wear formula matters to you.
Final Thoughts: The Beauty in Subtle Elegance
Both Put It in Neutral and Bare My Soul capture the effortless grace OPI is known for - these are the kind of shades that make you look and feel polished, confident and glamorous without even trying.
They both create a “no makeup” makeup look, but for your nails. Polished and poised, done but not overdone.
Whether you’re getting ready for a big event, heading to work or simply treating yourself to a self-care moment, these sheer neutrals bring a sense of calm, elegance and timeless beauty to any look.
If you love that barely-there manicure that still looks perfectly put together, you truly will go right with either of these.
Put It in Neutral gives that soft, cool glow, ideal for anyone who loves a clean, modern aesthetic, while Bare My Soul wraps your nails in a touch of warmth.
