Suzi and the Seven Dusseldorfs



Name: Suzi and the Seven Dusseldorfs

Collection: Holland 2012

Colour: Medium Plum/ Magenta Shimmer

Coats: 2

Pros: Not only does “Suzi and the Seven Dusseldorfs” stand out as a front runner in this collection, but it is my new favourite purple shimmer polish! I found “Purple With A Purpose” to be too deep and bluish and my favourites “Do You Lilac It?” and “Pampalona Purple” are both crèmes. This polish however, is a warm magenta with a cool chrome effect finish that catches the light beautifully. The name is so cute and witty with its Snow White reference and because Dusseldorf is Germany’s fashion capital. I would give this a buy for sure.

Cons: I unfortunately had some staining on and around my nails with this one but definitely not as bad as with some other purples. I tried my best to clean up the edges but this polish was thin at my nail beds so you have to be careful with the application!

Similar Shades: “Plugged in Plum” and “Louvre Me, Louvre Me Not” are both similar shades but they seem to have more micro sparkle than the shimmery shine of “Suzi and the Seven Dusseldorfs”
