OPI Germany Collection for Fall 2012: Part 2

As promised, I have for you today swatches of the second half of the OPI Germany Collection for Fall. You can see the first part of the collection here. This half gives us more gorgeous creams and shimmers making the game of favorites nearly impossible...


German-icure by OPI
A darkened brown with a coppery shimmer. In the bottle the shimmer looks reddish, but at least for me that didn't translate onto the nail. It looked coppery as you see here on the swatches. I love that there is such a variety of vampy colors now. Two coats for full coverage. Great formula as expected...




Swatch Details
Brand: OPI
Collection: Germany, Fall 2012
Color Name/Number: German-icure by OPI, NL G19
Number of coats: 2
Top Coat: No

Free of Formaldehyde, Toluene, Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP)

My Very First Knockwurst
A nude colored cream. Formula is nice and smooth only needing two coats for full coverage. This might be the closest I have to being "manikin hands" for me. It has a touch more pink compared to Don't Pretzel My Buttons in the first part of the collection. Again, I tend to like how these look on me and this is not an exception...

Nein! Nein! Nein! OK Fine!
A very dark smokey gray. Smooth cream formula with two coats for full coverage. You can probably even get away with just one coat if you tend to make them thick. This has a twin or look-a-like in the Zoya fall collection named Noot....

Schnapps Out of It!
A brown terra cotta cream with a hint of silvery shimmer. The shimmer really soften this color without being overpowering. It is a great neutral shade. Formula is very nice, two coats for full coverage and no visible nail line. No top coat in these swatches...

Suzi & The 7 Dusseldorfs
A grape purple shimmer. Formula is nice although I did have a few streaks, so definitely need to be more careful with application. It darkens toward the edges of the nail and just glows at the center. This might be my favorite polish out of these, but I go back and forth and change my mind every time I look at them...

Unfor-Greta-Bly Blue
A navy blue shimmer. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it does have something unique about it compared to other navy blue shimmers. Maybe a touch of teal? Great formula and two coats for full coverage. This also darkens toward the edges and glows in the center of the nail. Another favorite from this half of the set...

    Очень красиво! Посмотрела сразу обе части...и спасибо тебе большое! У тебя они выглядят совсем не так, как у большинства, и это дает пищу для размышлений, а нужен ли тот или иной, потому что изначально я хотела почти все.
