Love this polish! Wore it on my wedding day! It's a pretty peachy pink with gold shimmer. The shimmer isn't too obvious, but at some angles.

From OPI's 'All Shook Up' collection (2005). A frosty pink-peach (more pink than peach) with gold shimmer. Very pretty in the bottle. And very true to color on the nails. Looks pinky-peach out of direct sunlight, but frosty. Then from certain angles, BAM! you get a flash of gold shine. I think the addition of the pinky-peach base and gold shimmer also gives somewhat of an orange-tinged effect. Applies okay ... I actually found it to be kind of thick and somewhat gritty. I swapped for this, so the price was negligible. However, not my style, so I swapped mine away.

Color: peachy/pink with gold microshimmer. Wear: goes on smoothly, and two coats were enough for me to get the true bottle color. Price: inexpensive ($2) because it's being discontinued and it was on clearance.
I really liked the color in the bottle, but on my tips, it looked a bit more orangey than I wanted. However, the gold shimmer really shows up against my skin (I'm pale but have warmish undertones). I don't know that I would use this on tips again, but I think it would look very nice on toes, especially in the warmer months.

This is from the Elvis Collection and its a warm-toned peachy/pink. There are gold flecks in the bottle, but unless you're in direct sunlight, you can't really see them. What you can see is the gold undertone. Its a pretty pink if you're a fan of pinks, but its nothing special. If pinks don't do it for you, this isn't a must-have. I love pinks so its a keeper for me, even though I'm more cool-toned. It works OK with my skintone.

This is on the verge of being discontinued from the 50's 2005 collection. This is a warm pink with a gold flakes. It looks pretty in the bottle, but it's even nicer on the nails. The gold flakes are very subtle, I am a cool skintone, and this is actually complimentary. I bet it would look nice on warm and cool tones alike. Shame it won't be around for future purchases.

A pinky peach with gold shimmer, very similar to Your Villa or Mine? but with a little less pink flash to it. Very pretty color for summer for either tips or toes.

A shimmery coral with pinkish and gold undertones. I think this is a very pretty summer colour for fingers and toes. I get lots of compliments when I wear LMT. The only problem is that it is not at all neutral, and looks awful with bright coloured (like hot pink) clothes, so I find I have to watch my wardrobe when I use it. I would buy it next summer for sure. Like all OPI, excellent coverage and wear.

Based on other people's reviews, I expected this to be the nail polish version of NARS Orgasm blush. If it had more pink in it and was less bright peach, and if the gold shimmer was more prominent, it would be. The color is bright melon/peach with subtle gold shimmer. I first wore this on my hands and I don't think it works really well, but I bet it's really pretty for summer pedicures.

I love this one. Warm toned ladies, this is a must have! Love Me Tender is a peachy-pink with flattering gold shimmer...like a concentrated version of Nars Orgasm blush for nails.For those looking for a shade comparison - if OPI's Your Villa or Mine and Dancing in the Isles got married and had a child, this is the beautiful result of their union!

I don't see any peach in this color. To me it's a straight, bright warm medium pink color with gold shimmer in it. Very Barbie! :) One coat looks fine, but I think it needs a second coat to really pop. Don't think I'd repurchase this particular color but I'll surely wear it in the summer. Love me tender looks it's best when the sun reflects in the gold shimmer.
EDIT: I took a lippie off because I got tired of the color pretty quickly. Plus it looked kind of flat after a couple of days.

This is a pretty peachy-pink with gold iridescence. It leans more toward pink than peach. This is a great light summer color for those with warm tones.

I think I have found my HG spring/summer nail polish! Love Me Tender is an almost exact dupe for NARS Orgasm blush -- a peachy pink shot through with loads of tiny gold shimmer. It provided more coverage than I expected with the first coat as well. I compared Love Me Tender side-by-side with the two most similar OPI shades I have, Melon of Troy and Aphrodite's Pink Nightie. Melon of Troy is definitely more peachy-coral and has a finer silvery-white frost running through it. Aphrodite's Pink Nightie is a cooler, lavendar pink (similar intensity though) with the same type of frost as Melon of Troy. I definitely think I need a back-up bottle of Love Me Tender!
