OPI: Don't Pretzel My Buttons

I saved the neutral creme Don't Pretzel My Buttons as the last swatch from OPI's Germany Collection.

There are three neutral creme shades in the collection and I guessed this warm caramel beige would be my best fit - Yep! This polish gives me the mannequin hands effect I've always been craving because it matches the yellow undertones in my skin.  I don't wear nude polishes very often because they always seem to look a little "off" against my skin (too pink, too grey...) so I'm completely happy with this particular nude.  OPI's description is very similar to mine as they call DPMY a "honey beige".  Coverage was excellent in two coats and this has been on my hands for the last 5 days with minimal chipping.  It's a great working week polish.

Enjoy your weekend!

  2. OH, you picked well, it matches you spot-on! I like it! I always have that problem, too - too pink, too gray, too yellow...same with nude lipsticks. It's a hard game to play!

    1. You feel my 'pain' Larie - just makes it more exciting when we hit on THE shade. If I didn't have so many polishes I'd consider getting a full size bottle cos this is my shade of nude! xo

    1. Well?!?....Wow I wish they discounted the mini's here! That's something that NEVER happens...Perhaps just get DPMB. It's a really fantastic beige nude!
