Hi everyone! Hope you all are doing well! :) Today's post will be about my current favouriteeeeee nail polish and by favourite, I mean painting my nails with this colour for more than 1 month straight. Now that says a lot about this nail polish because I used to change up my nail colour every 3-4 days (depending) since I have quite a collection and I wanted to rotate my nail polishes.
This is OPI's My Very First Knockwurst from the 2012 Germany collection and it's such a beautiful light blush-toned nude. The formula is really good and it takes 2 (or 3 depending on your application) coats to reach full opacity. I think I've found the perfect neutral polish that is flattering against my skin tone :)
Fun fact: I actually first fell in love with this colour when I saw Kylie Jenner's Instagram photo (shown below) so I went on a mission to hunt down the nail polish that she used. But I couldn't find any info on it which sort of inspired me to do this post to share with you guys what I've found. I feel like this OPI colour is the closest to the one on her nails (based on the pic).

Since I love this blush-toned nude colour soooo much, I wondered if there are any dupes for it in other nail polish brand. You would think that there are a ton of dupes (amongst mainstream brands) out there for such a simple colour but I actually had a tough time searching for dupes tbh.

From this angle and lighting, it almost looks like the colour on my index to ring fingers is from the same nail polish.

Hopefully from this other angle and lighting, you can tell that Zoya Kennedy is more of pale lavender-tone nude and Essie GGG has more of the lavender tone and slightly darker than Zoya Kennedy. I threw in Essie Ladylike (just for fun) even though I know it's not even close the other 3 but this is also one of my favourite go-to neutral nail colour.
Overall, I would say that Zoya Kennedy is the most similar to OPI MVFK (not a dupe though imo) but I would still pick OPI MVFK over anything. I've already bought myself a backup of it hahaha.
Hope you've enjoyed viewing this post! xx
(P.s. Please excuse my index nail for how short it is hahaha. It took me 2 months to grow out my nails to the length that I want but as my winter break was approaching, the free edge of my index nail decided to tear at the side (what perfect timing -_-). So I had no choice but to snip it off /cries/
