Love this colour but its too streaky! 2 coats is pretty but too sheer, 3 coats looks good but you can still see the lines. 4 coats gets it the perfect colour as shown on the bottle but streakiness still shows.

Beautiful color but too sheer for my liking. I needed 3 coats to get the color on the bottle onto my nails. I like colors that are opaque and apply with 1-2 coats. However, not terrible either. Just not amazing.

My first OPI colour and I'm really pleased I've chosen this one. A lot of nude polishes are too yellow toned or beige on my pinky neutral skin. This manages to be a neutral pink, but not so pink that it's no longer nude. It has pretty good lasting power and the brush is great. The faults I have with it are the slow drying time and the fact I need to apply 4 layers. My normal 2 coats just made my nails look shinier. Pretty, but not the effect I wanted

HG nail polish, as someone else commented, more pink than nude on skin with yellow undertones of course. Makes tips look great without the over-the-top french mani. Very professional and always get tons of compliments even though it's such an understated color. People have actually commented that my nails always look perfect :3

But this buy this buy this!

Lovely pale pink polish with a glossy (but not super glossy) finish. I find it perfect for use at any time of year and any occasion, especially at work or on a casual day. Despite it not being a very noticeable color, it makes me feel very polished. It's also one of the easier OPI polishes to apply and doesn't take forever to dry or a thousand layers to show up!


NOTE: Since I'm Asian with strong yellow undertones in my skin, I don't think this is actually a "nude" on me. It's more of a baby pink.

Beautiful pale color that is a perfect nude color for my fingernails.
It takes a minimum of 2 coats to get good coverage. The color will last 7 days on my nails and I do a lot of hand washing and hand sanitizer for my job. I will be buying this product again.

i love this color. it is a great neutral for my skin tone which is fair and has cool and pink undertones. it takes about 3 coats to get it really really opaque but 2 works fine as well for natural looking nails. i think its a beautiful nail color. i dont use it for french manicures because i think its a little too pigmented for french manicure but i use it if i want baby pink nails. im in love!

This is by far my favorite OPI nail polish. Good for wear at any time, and occasion! The colour is a nice soft pink. It takes about 3 coats but can pass with 2 as well. Love how you can still see the tips of my fingernails. Gives them a professional looking manicure!!! Will keep buying for sure!!

I was disappointed in this. After reading all the great reviews, I picked this up when I ran out of Bubble Bath and they didn't have any in stock. It went on streaky and after FOUR coats, I can still see unevenness. Maybe I got a bad batch. Too bad because the pale pink colour is nice (not as good as BB for me), and the dry-time is top notch. EDIT: I couldn't take it anymore! Went out and found a new bottle of BB, applied a 5th coat of this and.....pure bliss!

I have been searching for a colour like this for so long. It's perfect on my fair/med warm skin & does not have that ugly, sickly yellow cast that Samoan Sand & Bubble Bath have. 3 coats.... HG, Just beautiful !

This is the first OPI Nail Lacquer I've tried..and omg it is AMAZING. I'm not allowed to wear nail varnish for school but i think that sometimes bare nails can look a bit tatty. This polish looks nude and natural and SUPER glossy. It just makes your nails look beautifully natural. It's definitely my HG schooltime nail polish. It goes on super smoothly and dries quickly. I will definitely be buying more OPI polishes; i hope i can get my hands on them here in the UK.

I bought this to use with french tips and have been using this for 3 months. I was looking for a nice pale pink but when I applied this, it did not go on the same color as it looked in the bottle. In fact, after applying this on my nails it looked like a nude peach color with yellow undertones. I can't see any pink. This could just be a problem with my nails, as everyone else seems to like this. I'm not sure. I will purchase a darker shade next time to get the color to show on my nails.

This is a second runner up to Bubble Bath, in my opinion. This is a slightly pinker, slightly shiner version of Bubble Bath. On my skin, it never looks too yellow or too beige, but it doesn't scream pink either. I will use this for both French Manicures and also as a stand alone when I want a very pale pink on my tips. This is often a spring color for me, but I have worn it year round. (Last week, as a matter of fact) I wear OPI almost exclusevily, and this applies better than most of their other sheers. I never have streaking issues with this polish. Wears like a dream and any chipping or tip wear does not show due to the natural coloring. I will repurchase, but I don't keep a back up like I do for Bubble Bath.

This is an excellent color for the "base" of a french mani! I've always liked OPI Bubble Bath and Essie Mademoiselle but once I tried Privacy Please I was in love....Its shiner, less chalky and more natural looking that Bubble Bath and its creamier, much less streaky and more natural looking than Mademoiselle! Its just perfect!

OPI's "Privacy Please" is a very soft pink colour and is a perfect during any time of the year for any occasion. (Spring usually has pastels or more muted colours like nude shades. Summer have more vibrant colours such as canary yellow, hot pink(s) or deep orange. Finally, winter have the darker colours. For example: a burgundy or darker navy blue. You do not have to follow this colour scheme, but it is something that I find useful.) Although, I'm wearing it right now and its October! LOL. I reccommend this product because not only is the shade appropriate for practically anything, the application is very good too.

This is my all time favourite overall HG polish for finger nails. It goes on perfectly smooth, never any streaks. It's oh so shiny and last very well. I wear on it's own or with Desire for French manicure. Perfectly sheer creamy white-pink. Sheer even with two layers. I pray they never discontinue this. For reference, I have very pale cool skin tone, and this shade looks perfectly natural.

HG natural, neutral polish! Sometimes when I try to get a natural polish, then tend to look yellow-y on the nail. UGH..very ugly and very aging. This has just a hint of pink it in and it is flattering on pale skin, like mine. This polish is very smooth and shiny. The brush is wonderful. It's a little more expensive than discount store polish but worth every cent. You can SEE the quality. It looks like expensive, rich polish from the finest upscale department store or salon. Will definately purchase again, and again, and again....5 lippies!

I love OPI nail polish and I love this color! I've been looking for the perfect natural sheer pink color to give my nails a clean look. This is it! I tried OPI Bubble Bath and it was not quite pink enough. I have ivory skin with pink undertones and this stands out just enough. My hands look so pretty. OPI is more expensive than drugstore nail polish, but it's worth it. The formula and the flat brushes are great.
