I don’t have the whole collection but I do have the set of mini polishes to share with you today. These are really gorgeous colours and I actually think they are perfect winter shades. This is the box:
First up: OPI – Don’t Pretzel My Buttons:
Don’t Pretzel My Buttons is a gorgeous nude creme. Even though the colour is gorgeous it was a little tricky with application. The first coat was really streaky (could it be the curse of the mini bottle?) but the second coat evened it out beautifully. No topcoat here. I must say these OPI polishes also dried much quicker than I am used to. I really love this nude. I am already thinking of plenty of nail art idea with this as a base.
OPI – Nein! Nein! Nein! OK Fine!
I really struggled to photograph this one well but don’t you just love the name? Nein! Nein! Nein! OK Fine! is dark – almost black – olive green creme. This is two coats with no topcoat although it could almost be a (thick) one coater. It is a really gorgeous colour and completely NOT what I would’ve chosen for myself if just browsing. I also think it is a beautiful shade for winter. If you like the darker colours but don’t want to go black, this is perfect.
OPI – Unfor-greta-bly Blue
Is that not a beautiful shade of blue? This is two coats with no topcoat. In the first photo it looks a bit brush-strokey but it didn’t come across in real life. Once I added topcoat all signs of that was gone too. This is such a gorgeous shade of blue but I don’t think this is a totally unique shade. It still is really pretty and application was quite dreamy.
OPI – Suzy & the 7 Dusseldorfs
Another gorgeous shade! I just love this shade of purple. It might not be the most unique shade but certainly is beautiful. I think this is such a gorgeous shade for winter too. This is two perfect coats with no topcoat. I must say adding topcoat to this polish really made it pop even more.
All in all I really liked these polishes and the shades. I think they are all great for winter but also for all year round. I adore the names! I was quite impressed with how quick these polishes dried. It wasn’t lightning fast but it definitely was quite a bit faster than some other polishes I have used. Once again, I didn’t quite like the mini bottles but once you get the hang of it it’s fine.
What do you think of these shades? Any one of them stand out for you? I think my favourite might be Don’t Pretzel My Buttons. No one is more surprised than me to hear me say that 😉
Thanks for reading!

I know right! The blue is so striking and the nude *swoon*
Thanks for reading!
Don’t Pretzel My Buttons looks AMAZING on you! I tried that one at a salon, but it looked too “mannequin hands” on me. I did buy the other pale color from the collection, My Very First Knockwurst, and was just as surprised as you were by liking a neutral!
Oh I like My Very First Knockwurst as well but haven’t worn it myself. I have no idea where my sudden love of the nudes have come from but I like it! 😉 Thank you so much!
I like the nude the most. The Nein! Nein! Nein! OK Fine. name had me in STITCHES!
