OPI Every Month Is Oktoberfest

If you get only one lacquer from the OPI Germany collection... it should probably be this one. Feast your eyes on OPI Every Month Is Oktoberfest:


How perfectly gorgeous is this? Vampy, shimmery, glowy, purple perfection. The formula was fantastic: easy to control, levelled out nicely, and good to go after two coats.


In natural light the warm velvety purple shimmer really lights up, and under artificial light the shimmer can sometimes take on an almost golden hue, as seen below.


In the shade, the shimmer is less visible, but still there. It appears to be a deep purple, but not black (which I love). Mmm, glossy purple perfection!


What do you think of OPI Every Month Is Oktoberfest? I'm so very glad I decided to pick this one up- it's really something special!

    1. The shimmer definitely makes this a must-have for me! It's not overly hidden, either- visible in most lighting, which is awesome!

  3. The Germany collection really didn't move me at all. I've seen this swatched as a ”must.have” a.few time but I think you finally sold me. Awesome!

  12. I NEED this vamypy baby! My friend said she was getting it for my birthday but she keeps forgetting what it's called. What I'm trying to say is I have no faith in her.
