An awesome, feminine color to wear in autumn. The lipstick equivalent of this nail polish would HAVE to be Chanel Rouge Coco in Mademoiselle. This polish color is a sophisticated burnt rose shade that exudes the elegance of French women.

I am a die-hard lover of various red and pink nail polish colors on a woman's nails so I completely fell in love with this color. If you're more of a neon nail-color girl, you may not like this; however, I urge you to give it a try because you literally feel like a different person after wearing this!

Baguette Me Not is a great classic color that I wear during all seasons. It looks great for a pedicure or manicure and can easily be made less serious/sophisticated with some nail art. The application is very smooth and not streaky. It's difficult to classify this color since it's not as purple as most shades of mauve (it has more yellow tones, but not in an objectionable way), and is also not a true bluish pink. A perfect color that I will continue to use again and again.

This color is just what I expected it to be (pictures found on the internet proved accurate). Its a muted deep salmon on the pinky side. Many people describe this as a "mom" color, and it kind of is by the fact it is kind of conservative, but that doesn't make it dull or aging (and hey, my mom has good taste!) Its bright and pretty and safe and classic and the application is flawless and dries quick. I wouldn't buy it again cause I doubt I'll get through the whole bottle but I'm very happy and will certainly wear it for a while.

Love OPI nailpolishes and this color is my nr. 1 favourite amongst all. Although I love wearing bright pinks, reds and purples on my nails, "Baguette Me Not" is the best everyday color to me. The color is still bright, but it's not overly screaming for attention, so this should still be work appropiate. If I don't know which color polish I want to wear, this is the color I always pick. Im pretty fair, NC 15 and this color is really flattering on my skintone. Love the texture of this polish as well, two coats is enough for a great coverage. The staying power in general of the OPI creme polishes are also the best, love it!

This colour defines what feminine means, and is PERFECT for winter. It's a muted red with a slightly dusty pink hue, almost brick-ish, but not quite. It's womanly, not a girly polish at all. By that I don't mean it's mature looking, just very very feminine. It really warms hearts. It looks very similar to Essie's In Stitches from Winter 2010 Collection. Formula is VERY VERY GOOD, creamy and opaque. Fully opaque in 2 coats. Wearability is good, and the shine is gorgeous.

I randomly picked this up on clearance at my local salon thinking it was a coral dusty rose. When I applied at home in natural lighting it showed up more pinkish. Then when I went outside near sunset it looked dark orange toned red. In most indoor lighting it's coral. A very strange and unique nail polish. It dries quickly and I only need one coat.
The brush is so easy to use and wide to get more area.



It's also work appropriate without being boring so I plan to use this one a lot. For ref I'm nc30 with yellow undertones. :-)

Beautiful! Looks great on my NW20 self. Brings a dark peachy glow that illuminates more than my nails.

I brought Baguette Me Not long time ago, the first time when I used it, I didn't like it. I think the main reason of I didn't like it was because I was wearing dark colors most of the time before, so didn't get used to a bright color like this. While this year, I started to wear more colorful nail polishes, so now this color doesn't give me a shock in my eyes kind of feeling. It's actually a very pretty coral peach color with a little pink undertone, very lovely color for the summer. It's also cream finish, no shimmer, which I like a lot.

Baguette me not is such a beautiful colour- I would describe it as a rosy red with a hint of coral- perfect for spring/summer! The formula is creamy, really easy application! LOVE, love, love it!

In the bottle a rather boring color, but on nails absolutely stunning. Since I know opi, I wear all these crazy bright colors which are so pretty on me.
I applied 2 coats for an opaque finish. Drying time was with Seche vite this time about 20 minutes instead of 10. Application is easy. I'm NC 42 for reference.

I really love this polish! this colour is extraordinery, it´s not just coral or just pink. It´s a kind of pinky coral little bit dusty.
It reminds me 50´s. Don´t know why, just this color is so retro and I love it :-)

Absolutely love this warm coral-peachy-pink. It's a great shade for redheads and works amazing with my light skintone. My go-to Spring-to-Summer shade. Love it!

This toasted coral creme yielded the most flawless manicure, beating my other OPI shades in smoothness of application in 2 coats with no chips until day 6 without a top coat. It dries a bit brighter and pinker than the color in the bottle, and is most definitely darker and pinker than the uploaded picture here. As much as I thought it elegant and interesting, it sadly does not look right on my nails, so I would not repurchase it, although I may retry it during a different season.

I bought this after I saw review and swatch here. I am glad I did. It is a beautiful color. If you are shy of bright pink/red/coral, try this one. The color is burnt rosy coral. It is not too loud but definiately gives pop. Works well on both toe and finger nails. It is brighter than bottle color. Two coats.
Edit: It shows different color in different light. In daylight, it shows more pink. In dark shade, it shows red. In yellow night light, it shows orange.

This is one of my all time favourite shades. I finally bought one due to the rave reviews here, and it's no lie, this is a terrific colour, and a great polish.


Colour as others describe it, a burnt rosy coral pink. Hard to describe really. It looks gorgeous on the nails, nothing like the colour chip on OPI or even what the bottle itself looks like.


It has the muted tone of a neutral with all the life of a rosy burnt peachy colour. A little like a pastel terra cotta, but with pink life in it.


Very very flattering to anyone with a warm colouration, but I think even cool toned women could enjoy this. It feels almost like a go with anything and anyone shade. It isn't in your face, but it isn't a life sucking pale either.


As for wear time, it went longer without chipping than most of my OPI's which are pretty good anyway. I think I got 4 days out of it the last 2 times. I use a good base coat and 2 coats of this shade.


NO STREAKING! Easy clean application, not runny or clumpy or gooey.


UPDATE: this polish is my go to favourite now of all my polish. I keep going back to it.


It is my perfect fall rosy terracotta neutral, goes with all my clothes, looks nice with black, brown, navy, rusts, olive green, cream and even most warm reds. In other words, typical fall colour choices.

I've had this for quite some time now and only just recently tried it for the first time and was absolutely blown away. On first glance this does look rather unimpressive in the bottle but on me it's an incredibly flattering dark coral without shimmer and the finish is nice and glossy. I put two coats on 2 days ago (without base or top coat) and it is still going strong with minimal wear and absolutely no chipping.
A word of caution though, I don't think this would look great on long nails, I ended up chopping mine off when I put this colour on and it looks really pretty.

I'm so glad that I saw swatches of this and decided to buy it. It is a classy dark rose creme. No streaking, not even with one coat. I prefer to wear one or two coats, because three coats turns it into a bit of a dark 'mum' colour.

The application is great - I think OPI's France collection is a definite winner!

There isn't a whole lot that I can add to the reviews of this polish that hasn't already been written, but here goes. Like others have noted, the color under the bright light of my halogen desk lamp is a few-shades-darker-than-coral. I liken coral to be a summer color, perfect for drinks by the pool or a summer wedding (not for the bride, but the perfectly posh guest). Coral is also a color I associate with the onset of spring, when designers like to showcase that impeccable linen sheath or the perfect coral accessory. This polish, however, is a darker color, but still captures that certain shade of a dark red-orange. I have light-to-medium coloring on my hands (b/c they get the incidental light, they are a few shades darker than my face, which almost never sees the sun without SPF 55 s/s), and this color is extremely flattering. It's nice to have a rich creme, too - there is absolutely no shimmer. Very elegant, polished (no pun intended) ... but still very wearable for polish fiends across a wide range of ages and lifestyles. Excellent!

An absolutely beautiful mid tone pink with a lot of red in it. I stick to creamy colors. I really can't get with the shimmer in polishes but this is okay. I most likely will end up giving it to my mother.
