NOTD: OPI 'You Don't Know Jacques!'

Today's nail of the day is of an OPI cult favorite: the color 'You Don't Know Jacques!'  Again with the names, OPI, you simply slay me! 

This color is a dark taupe. It can look more purple in some lighting and more brown in other lighting. BEWARE! This color can look muddy and utterly unappealing under certain fluorescent lighting. This is something I've noticed that simply can't be avoided and is unfortunate, but the truth.  Otherwise this color is really quite a lovely neutral particularly for the Winter time.

This color applies very well and is one of my preferred OPI formulas for its consistency. However, even after two coats there is still some splotchiness and nearly transparent parts of my manicure! That's a bit of a letdown considering this color is not even on the lighter end of the color spectrum.  Just know that this color requires a bit more TLC upon application. Shine some light on your mani when you think you're done to make sure there aren't any see through spots and you should be good :)

OPI retails for $8.50 for 0.5oz of polish. It can be purchased at ULTA, some drugstores, and some department stores.

Would you rock this brownish taupe?
