I was disappointed with this baby, that's for sure. It was no Cinderella. This was an evil step-sister. All that beautiful shimmer is mostly lost in person, and definitely in the pictures. It's super runny and sheer, below is five coats, yes FIVE and there was still an obvious visible nail line. Blah. I would have kept going but my painting hand was cramping at that point.
It wouldn't have been that bad but this color is super unflattering for me. I don't think I have enough color to pull it off. It's chalky and uneven and just too pale.
Anyone else have any luck with it?
Such a gorgeous girly colour :)
ReplyDeleteIt is very girly!
Deletethe shade of this polish is pretty, but 5 coats? that is too much :S
ReplyDeleteYeah I agree, even three is pushing it, and five wasn't even enough!
DeleteFive coats?! Wow. I think it's a really pretty colour but not worth going through 5 coats for!
ReplyDeleteI agree. I may have to try it over a pink base and maybe it'll be worth it. Maybe.
DeleteVery girly and sweet but 5 coats is a bit to much.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Sinful Glass Pink or SH Diamond Strength Pink Promise, and they both have good formulas. Essie's formulas and I don't ever seem to get along…. :(
ReplyDeleteVery gorgeous color. I layered it over a darker pink and it made it come to life. Maybe that will help you like it a bit more :) fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteI just ordered this one because i thought the same thing about it being a "pink" version of Cinderella with the gorgeous glitter shimmer in it. I would have to agree though, it looks like a disappointment :( Your nails look great though!
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS! This is such a lovely shade of pink :)
ReplyDeleteLOL evil stepsister. I love that!
ReplyDeleteLove this colour and just wished my nails where as pretty as yours ;)
ReplyDeletePhlox
I love all pinks for spring!
ReplyDeleteWow, this one is so pure and delicate, I love it! Great swatch, thank you! =)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous color! I have something really similar by a local brand :)
ReplyDeleteI want this color! I never like light pink but this is so pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute pink I love it.
ReplyDeleteI like this shade of pink, but 5 coats!? Gosh! It's way too much...
ReplyDeleteHi, I am one of your new followers. I love this color! Essie nail polish can not be found here in my country, so I always try to find some other brands that comes near to Essie colors.
ReplyDeleteThat's such a lovely and delicate colour! I really like it!
ReplyDeleteI've been searching for the perfect baby pink ever since my nail polish obsession began. I don't think it exists! I have 2 or 3 baby pinks that are just like this one! Extremely sheer, awful application and so on .. :( Too bad, because it's a gorgeous color!
ReplyDeleteoh wow! such an awesome colour! I didn't know it had shimmer =)
ReplyDeleteDIfferent strokes for different folks!
ReplyDeleteEeeer, I meant, several strokes... :))) LOL
