OPI Euro Centrale, Part Two

Hi everyone! I have the second part of the OPI Euro Centrale collection. If you missed part one, you can find that here.

The polishes in this grouping include two gorgeous warm shimmers and two rich cool cremes. I'm really happy with all of them and definitely plan to wear them again sometime.



Can't Find My Czechbook is a beautiful pale blue creme. In person, it is slightly more muted than you see in these photos. It was a bit runny and thin so I needed three coats for full coverage. But otherwise the formula was good and it was perfectly self-leveling. Just make sure you don't load your brush too much or you'll flood your cuticles.

Hands Off My Kielbasa! is a peachy nude shimmer. I know that a lot of people don't like this polish, some calling it "dated", however, I really love this one. Yes, it is a bit conservative, but sometimes conservative is what I am in the mood for. It also has a beautiful shimmer - almost iridescent. The formula was perfect and it was an easy two coats.

OY-Another Polish Joke! is a sheer gold shimmer. Like HOMK the shimmer has an iridescent quality to it. It can be worn on its own with 2-3 coats, but I've layered one coat over Vant to Bite My Neck? I love this combination, the polish takes on a gilded or baroque look when layered over a dark colour. I suspect it might also be very pretty over some of the lighter polishes in the collection like Can't Find My Czechbook or Suzi's Hungary AGAIN! The formula was great, and there were no issues.

Vant to Bite My Neck? is a dark eggplant purple creme. It is not so dark that you can't see the colour, so I really like it for that reason. It's heavily pigmented and almost a one-coater, but I used two coats here. It smoothed out really nicely and I had no issues with this one at all.

    1. Thanks! :) OY-Another Polish Joke! has a beautiful shimmer in person. I also love that you can wear it on its own or layer it over lots of different colours.

  3. Can't Find My Czechbook and Vant to Bite My Neck? are my favoutie ones in this post. I would wear CFMC for spring/summer and VTBMN in the fall/winter. I love how dark VTBMN is but you can still see the colour of it.

    1. I think those are my favourites as well. Although you must check out Can't Find My Czechbook in person as it's slightly different than in the photos - such a hard one to capture. I love that the darks in this collection don't just look black, as you mentioned. :)
