This may sound a little crazy coming from me, but I couldn’t wait to wear this polish. And even crazier, I love it. Of all the Germany collection polishes that I’ve tried, this is my favorite thus far.
Warm, nude creme
Though this polish seems a little bland, something about it is extremely flattering and pretty. It’s a warm, beige, nude-y creme. Although it seems very warm and pale, this polish was a pretty awesome looking mannequin hand manicure on me. This polish hit all the right notes for me and I can’t wait to wear it again.
Easy application, even for a creme
Cremes can be fussy, but I had no issues with Don’t Pretzel My Button’s formula. It went on smooth and very even for a creme. I used three coats to be safe, and got full coverage. As far as application tips, I’d just let each coat dry fully since cremes can drag easily.
Where To Buy: Ulta / Trade Secret / Dillard’s / JCPenny / Professional Salons / Online Retailers / $ 8.50
Let’s hear it, do you agree that Don’t Pretzel My Buttons is pretty? Or is it a bit boring for you? Did you pick this polish up? Do you want to?

I want so many polishes from this collection, but I am sooo broke. I’m enjoying living out my manicure fantasies vicariously through you.
Aw, I’m sorry! But you can always borrow them
can’t wait to take you up on that! cleaning my stash tomorrow and plan on giving a bunch of bottles to my coworkers’ daughter.
I love boring polish. LOL. Do you know how similar this is to Zoya Kennedy or Avery?
Hey! I did do a review of Avery, you can review it and let me know what you think. I do think they are quite similar, but this polish did look better on me personally. But they are very close in color, but the tone is slightly different.

It matches your skin perfectly, more so than any other mannequin-mani I’ve seen you do before. I’d be interested to see what it looks like on other tones, I couldn’t imagine it having it the same effect on me.
You can always try and we would find out!
I’m looking forward to it again, a very nice neutral, which I know you approve of
The best thing about “Pretzel” is the way it color-coordinates with all of the others colors in the Germany collection. I love being able to mix and match colors from the collection.
absolutely my favorite too from Germany collection. I am wearing it now actually.
