At one point I also owned Tickle My France-y (which, has an adorable name!), but it was the newer, redder version that has been shipping from TD for a while now. Oh lord, it looked AWFUL on me. Truly awful. I had to get it out of my collection, so I gave it to my mom. I guess I inherited my dad's skintone, because it looks fab on her. Maybe I can get a swatch pic on her sometime :)
I can't remember how many coats these are >< Either 2 or 3. I tend to remember formulas that are terrible, and none of these standout in that respect.
OPI You Don't Know Jacques - A classic. I like it, but find it a tad dark on me.
OPI Baguette Me Not - I'm always straddling the line between like and dislike for this polish. I'm not sure. I still need to think on it.
OPI Parlez-vous OPI? - I just posted this recently, but maybe it's best to keep my France collection swatches together :)
I like it
ReplyDeleteI love all of these on you!! I have YDKJ, but I don't love it quite as much as I thought I would. I agree, it seems just a little... dark? I need something the same tones, but a little lighter... any suggestions? I wore Essie Hot Coco yesterday and thought it had a tad too much purple in it... it's so hard to find just the right taupe!
ReplyDeleteI think Baguette Me Not looks great on you... and it went on my lemming list, along with PVOPI. I might have to spend my Amazon credit sometime soon! ;)
I unabashedly love Baguette Me Not. I remember when it first came out someone called it a "mom color," but I think it looks totally chic and gorgeous. Definitely into it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I find You Don't Know Jacques to be overrated. ...I've never typed that thought out before. Feels good.
Hmm, I might need OPI Baguette Me Not!
ReplyDeleteNow I want Parlez-vous!
ReplyDeleteAw this really was a fantastic collection, if only because of YDKJ and PVOPI. Baguette is classy, not sure I'd reach for it first but it is a lovely color.
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad I wasn't into polish when it first came out! I love all the names from this collection!
ReplyDeleteBetter get on it fast before it disappears for good!
ReplyDeleteI don't have anything else like it, but that's not saying much LOL. I don't have a lot of polishes in that colour-range...
ReplyDelete:D I can't imagine Baguette Me Not being a mom colour at all! I kept it in my swap box for a while, but when I swatched it again, I was quite taken by it! So back into the stash box it goes!
ReplyDeleteLOL, I'm sure you're not alone on the YDKJ feeling ;) The name is terrific, I think that's why it's so popular, to be honest!
I feel like Revlon Stormy is a lighter YDKJ; you have that one, how do you feel about it?
ReplyDeletewell... I don't really like the formula. I had a heck of a time getting it to self-level. It also seemed to still pull a little purple on me. I guess I need a more brownish taupe?!
