I have nothing but good things to say about this color. For a nude, it provides the wearer with such dimension to stare at. It's very elusive in that way. Lovely

I am NC10; Honey blonde with strawberry highlights and teal green eyes.
In the bottle it looks like just another bronzed nude with frost. On my nails it takes on a very different personality. It's a just frosty enough pink champange with gold shimmer. I haven't noticed the green other reviewers have mentioned. I love this on toes and hands. Two coats is good coverage and applies smoothly, I use three for the super shellac look. I top with seche vite and it's completely dry in 30 minutes.

This is an anytime appropriate polish and I would buy again.

I HATE frosted polishes with a passion, but color grabbed my eye at the salon and I love it. It's like a pearly version of my skin. I do wish it was a teeny bit more pink than bronze, but it still looks cool on my pink toned skin. Very subtle but still noticeable at the same time. Works well if you want be conservative at work. I have short nails and it looks great, I think it would work well on nails that are medium but not too long.

Meh, I don't love it. The iridescence is what drew me to the product, but in certain lights it contains a little bit of green, which is not particularly flattering for yellow skintones like mine. The staying power is pretty average- it doesn't chip but certainly wears away at the edge of the nails after about half a day.

I have dozens of bottles of OPI, and this one is definitely my current favourite. It doesn't really look like much in the bottle, but on it is the most gorgeous polish I've ever seen. The way it shimmers, and changed colour almost in certain light is incredible. It isn't streaky and surprisingly opaque. It is the most magical looking polish ever. So glad I chose this one.

This polish proves that tasteful frost doesn't have to be an oxymoron. Nomad's Dream has become one of my favorites since I bought it on a whim this summer. I've been wearing it constantly and have cleaned out nearly half the bottle since then. I have yellow skin and the delicate bronzey orange compliments it amazingly well. The fact that the shimmer is warm and coppery is what saves it from looking dated, although I admit I like it even better with a matte topcoat. The formula is great as usual. Very easy to remove for a frost.

This is one of my all time favorite colors from OPI. It's basically a shimmery version of my skin color, which makes it the perfect polish to wear if I need to look more professional. This doesn't show chips mostly, so I can also go a little longer without touching up my nail polish.

I really took me a while to decide if I liked this color. I gravitated toward it in the store because it seemed like a bronzy, burnt orange color, which I thought would be cool for summer when I want to do a bronzy goddess look. When I applied it, against my tanner skin, I felt like it was just really brown without any orange at all, which I didn't like at first.

But, that said, I think it's growing on me. Ir definitely still doesn't have any orange in it, but it is pretty, and I actually got a few compliments on it today. I think, though, it's a better toe color. I put it on my toes and fingers, and it looks better on my toes for some reason.

Also, my bottle was really thick and clumpy, which made it hard to apply. I don't know if it was just mine or not, but this was the most difficult polish I've ever had to try. For a few nails, it wouldn't spread properly, and I had to take it off and reapply.

So, to recap, I like the color for my fingers, love it for my tootsies. The formula sucks. And it's not orange at all when you apply it, even though there's a hint of it when you look at the bottle. So, for me, it's just an "eh," ... 3 outta 5.

Gorgeous neutral colour with a little shimmer, perfect for everyday, goes with everything and very easy to apply.
My only complain is the price of OPI nailpolishes in Europe, way too high in comparison with the US!

OPI has done it again. Beautful colour, warm golden copper, just enough shimmer. Goes with everything, a perfect everday shade.

i originally bought this for my toes, and didn't like how it looked, so it has stayed in the bathroom cabinet until recently, when i thought i would try it on my fingernails- love it!!! wears well, gorgeous color for my skin tone; a bit too shimmery for work- i'm a RN- but definitely nice for evening/going out!!

Very nice polish- it's frosty but not a bad frosty. I haven't tried any other OPI frosts since it's not a finish I'm all that keen on, but if they're all this nice it might change my opinion! The colour is nothing revolutionary but it seems to be the perfect match for my hands (I'm about an NC30 but no idea what colour my hands themselves are) so I'm quite happy. It reminds me a bit of mother of pearl, sometimes you can just barely see that faintly greenish iridescence but if you're expecting something like Significant Other Colour you'll be disappointed, it's nowhere near as noticable.

This is a beautiful, original shade. It's my favourite 'nude' color. I can get away with it though I'm fair and cool toned. It's a very classy, chique color; it's subtle but not boring. I love it for formal occasions.

This is one of my favorite OPI shades ever. It's a shimmery pink-coral-light brown that is perfect for the office, yet still pretty and not boring or old-ladyish. Also, I love how it changes color depending on where the light hits it. Direct light highlights the shimmer, whereas indirect light makes the pink-coral-light brown color stand out.

My fav nail polish, the colour is a frosty pink with a subtle gold/brown/almost coral (really it's hard to describe) it's less pink than the pic that is currently up. It's so wearable, doesn't streak, perfect for work or otherwise. It's likely not something I would have thought I would love so much but I bought it anyway after hearing good things and I am glad I did, perfect colour for me. Will repurchase.

One of my stables for my toe nails when I am not wearing deep red. Although frosty, its easy to apply on....colour is so pretty, can stare it at for hours w/o getting bored.

One of my personal faves.

Great shade for work, nice neutral pink-brown with slight gold and green shimmer. Almost reminds me of the MAC 'Prrr' lipgloss shade.

I love this color. It is good for everyday. Beautiful frosty pink brown. Every time I pull out this color, I like to see my nails over and over. The more I wear it, the more I love it. Go with every color outfit. My all the time polish. One coat is sheet. Two coats is perfect.

After over ten years of not wearing this shade (I first got it when the Painted Desert collection came out), I picked it up again, and am absolutely convinced that it is not the same colour it once was. The green iridescence seems to be toned down a lot more - I remember this being a unique and beautiful colour, now it's a run-of-the-mill frosty nude with barely discernable green iridescence. In any case, frosty polishes are not looking so hot on me these days (they make my hands look...aged?) so I doubt I will be repurchasing this one.
