Mischo Beauty Extra: “You Dont’ Know Jacques!” Nail Polish by OPI
I am deeply in love with OPI’s “You Don’t Know Jacques!”. The pictures aren’t the best this week because I took these while on the train heading back to DC from NYC last Friday. And yes, these are some of the pictures I uploaded to Twitter.
Some of you may remember the color I wore to Fashion Week- which I loved, but after touring the Creative Nail Design Studio and falling in love with their #6, from the upcoming Spring 2009 collection, I was on a mission to find a chic gray for my nails. “You Don’t Know Jacques!”, part of OPI’s fall/winter 2008 collection, is actually a taupe (grayish-brown) and to my surprise looks very chic on my nails.
I fell in love with it instantly! My friend Andrea introduced me to Essie’s “Good To Go” top coat- and seriously- it is the FASTEST drying top coat I’ve ever used! I tested it out in cab, while at Fashion Week heading to a show, and it dried instantly with incredible shine- no smudges! Where has this top coat been all my life?
oh i need that top coat! and ur right, ur nails do look very chic!
I like the color on you. I need that Essie product also.PJD
I love the color and I’m a huge fan of the top coat! I’m also loving Sephora’s OPI color in “Metro Chic” that’s just 1/2shade lighter than “You Don’t Know Jacques!” with just a smidge more of a purple tint to it.
I tried that color on at Ulta on me and it looked like murky pond water with my skin color.But Diva-Love you are rocking it! lol!I got that Essie top coat too. but its stuck and wont come open. Any suggestions on getting nail polish open?
that color looks nice on your nails.
I love that top coat. it is fantastic.
I’m still going to find this polish
OMG… i’ve GOT to get that polish… i LOVE that color on your nails! i’m glad i could introduce you to something new that you like… i SWEAR by that quick dry top coat… it’s all i use
To “MakeupByRenRen”: Thank you! That top coat is the real deal!
To “Product Junkie Diva”: I swear by that top coat! Please let me know your thoughts once you try it!
To “Confessions of a Makeup Whore and Product”: Oh- I just checked out “Metro Chic” and it’s the only color sold out from the Sephora OPI collection. I must try it. Thanks for that!
To “Jamie @ Rural Glamour”: Sorry to hear that!!! And thank you.
I’d probably return that Essie top coat- it definitely shouldn’t be sticking like that!
To “antithesis”: Thank you!
To “Dominican Enigma”: That top coat is amazing!
To Wes: Yes- get it! I think you’ll love it.
To Andrea: Yes, you definitely need to add this color to your collection of gray nail polish!And, thank you again for the fabulous top coat!
