As you can see that while they do look very similar in the bottles they are different on the nail. Purple Yourself together is a lighter purple with a strong gold shimmer that does not hide. It also has a thinner formula which results in needing three coats to be fully opaque. Dutch'ya Just Love OPI? is a darker purple and has a more pigmented formula which required only two coats to be fully opaque. Possibly because it is so pigmented, the shimmer does not show up as much as in Purple Yourself Together.
Index and Ring fingers: OPI Duch'ya Just Love OPI?, 2 coats (no top coat)
Middle and Pinkie fingers: Nicole by OPI Purple Yourself Together, 3 coats (no top coat)

Both polishes are gorgeous...

Thanks for looking!

I like Purple Yourself Together best. Thanks for comparing!
ReplyDeleteThanx for the comp, very useful. Unfortunately we don't get Nicole by OPI here, so I have the buy the OPI
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comparison I am loving the Purple Yourself Together
ReplyDeleteI definitely prefer Purple Yourself Together. I picked up most of the Holland shades, but Dutch'ya Just Love OPI wasn't one of them- I think it looks kind of similar to other purples I own.
ReplyDeleteI really like Purple Yourself better but we don't get Nicole for OPI here! I like that it's got more gold shimmer in it!
ReplyDeleteI think i like Dutch'ya Just Love better. but the other is pretty too!
ReplyDeleteThey are both pretty but I think I like the NOPI better. I actually went and got it yesterday after seeing your swatches! :) thanks for the comparison
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that this was useful. I will try to do more comparisons like this in the future!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for those that don't get NOPI where you live. If you are out of the country take a look at this service... http://www.myus.com/
Purple is one of my favorite colors of nail laquer. I like both)
ReplyDeleteI think there is a really cheap dupe out there from NYX GIRLS called Golden Lavender. Its builds to look like Nicole OPI color. Very pretty and easy formula to use also. love that color from the Holland collection also.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone have both NYX GIRLS and the Nicole purples to compare?
I wonder how it compares to Zoya Faye...
ReplyDelete@summer_breeze, me too! Love the purples :)
ReplyDelete@Kisha, I don't have NYX Golden Lavender to compare, but from what I've seen online, it does look similar...
@thebeautifullagoon, sadly also not a polish I own to compare. From swatches online however the shade of purple looks different...
