This was the one that started my OPI addiction! My first ever OPI colour and one of my top 3 favorite polishes of all time. I love the pinky-purple magenta shade. It can be worn year round. It's bright enough for summer, while not looking too wild for colder months. I actually love this as a pick me up in the middle of winter. It makes me really happy to see this on my nails. I find two coats does this trick for me.

This color looked super lousy on my skin tone (NC25). Had to remove it immediately, I just couldn't look at it. 3 lippies because its GREAT for stamping ;) and dry time was good.

Holy cow, this is the best nail polish ever. PERFECT. Perfect color, perfect finish, everything about it I love! I don't even have to apply a second coat of this polish. It doesn't streak at all and along with the top coat, it lasts forever on my nails, especially the toes!!! Favorite nail polish I have ever purchased, ever. Period. Go buy it. :)

This was one of my first OPI nail polishes! I was so excited about it at first, but was disappointed to find how dark and dull it ended up drying. I have a pale NW15 skin tone, so I'm sure it would look best on those with darker tones. I kept trying over and over with the opi top coat...but always end up with the same result. When I use this again I think I will coat with a shimmery sheer polish to help brighten it up.

O....M....G.....MUAers, I've just discovered my HG nail polish. Who knew a color could be so unbelievably gorgeous and flattering on my skintone? For reference, I am about NW20-25, and this color is just...beyond. Beyond words and definitely beyond any adjectives that can do it justice!

It's a gorgeous light plummy purkle (pinky purple, natch) that would just just as beautiful in the fall/winter as it is in the summer/spring. Great for all seasons, unique enough to be just a little "out there" while still totally appropriate for work and school. Application is flawless, like OPI should be, and of course, minimal tip wear and chips with the right TC/BC. For reference, I use Nailtique's Formula 2 PLUS + Orly Bonder with Out the Door TC on top.

Also, love that this is also a great toe color! Always great when you find a polish that looks just as good on feetsies as it does on nails.

Love this color! I use this on my toes quite a bit during the summer. It is almost a bright, but not crazy, plum/pink. I can see this color working for almost everyone.

One of my favourites too! A bright fuchsia plum creme shade. One coat is usually enough for me and it applies super nicely without any streaks. Very good pigmentation and dries quite quickly too. It is from their Hong Kong Collection. :)

This nail polish is amazing! Probably one of my favorites by OPI. The color is a really nice plum-berry creme, and the formula applies really smooth and totally un-streaky. I managed to only do one coat and have it look really nice and opaque.

The perfect polish for anytime. I love this colour because (as others mentioned) you can wear it anytime- anywhere. I'm a NW15 and the purple is warm enough that it doesn't look harsh without being too pink. Cool enough for winter, but I'd still wear it on my toes in summer.
As with other OPI polishes- great applicator, high quality bottle. Quite expensive in regular shops- 13$ CAD.
It is thickening up quite quickly though, but nothing some polish thinner can't fix.

Gorgeous color! One my favorite OPI polishes from the Hong Kong collection, I feel that this color goes with almost everything I have! With the OPI topcoat, this polish stays chip free for at least a week. Love it!

Dim Sum Plum is HG for me. It is my "go to" colour in any season. In winter it makes me happy and it's subdued enough to wear with darker coloured clothing. If I can only take one NP with me on vacation this is the one because it also looks amazing with a tan and goes well with brighter tropical vacation wear. It even looks stunning with white linen. It's just perfect for me fair cool toned (NW 20) skin. A must have and I'm loving the flat brushes even for my narrow nails. A true winner for me.

The color looks amazing with my very fair skin. It is magenta with some purple hints. Two coats are necessary for the finish to be opaque. I was able to find it only for around 6$, which is a good deal for nail polish creamy that does not streak... Will definitely repurchase!

Dim Sum Plum is a great color! It is perfect for any season! This color is different from all the other OPI colors. It is a beautiful pinkish purple berry shade. Would look good on any skin tone.

I'm loving this color for a fall pink. Plummy pink. Wears very well and doesn't stain at all.

I love this pinky purple! I think they said this was supposed to be a berry color...I agree. It looks lovely on short nails...don't think I'd apply it to long nails though...would be a bit too much for me I think.

This is a gorgeous deep magenta colour with plum undertones, this is shade I am always drawn to over and over again. It is creamy and applies well and dries to a high shine finish. It lasts about 3/4 days without chipping but a good base coat is needed if you don't want to stain your nails as this is quite a dark colour.

Ulta had a sale on the Hong Kong Tiny Takeouts collection, so I picked up the set. All the bottles are mini. I do not have olive skin, and I think this made my white, not very tanned skin look ruddy and somewhat ghastly. It's very purpley, and it just doesn't look great on me. It definitely needed two coats, I can tell where I missed applying the second coat fully. It's a cream, no shimmer, which I do like. I'm looking forward to trying the red my fortune cookie and suzi says feng shui that also came in the box, and the rapid dry top coat.
