    This is a nice pastel lilac color. It is a great spring color. I have medium slightly olive skin and I feel it looks great against skin even though I'm warm so this should work for any skin tone. I...

    I'm not a big polish wearer, and the few times I picked up any essie product, I wasn't impressed. This is the first shade that I actually like enough to keep vs. swapping it away. Lovely cool-toned...

    This is a gorgeous colour and one of my favourite polishes ever! It is a nice lilac colour that is opague in two coats. It is a cream polish that dries to a slightly shiny finish. Its staying power...

    I absolutely love this color. It lasts really well!! I have had it on for a week, and I only have a few small chips. It's also a great price for as great as it is.

    Essie's Lilacism was my first Essie out of two. I have OPI and China Glaze, and honestly just preferred Essie. The formula could be seen as streaky but is easily fixed with a base coat. I find...

    I'm a huge fan of Essie in general and this is one of the colours I reach for most. It's very wearable and suits my pale skin tone. I find this is great in spring and summer, but also very work...

    I have been looking for a perfect lilac colour for ages and Lilacism fits the bill. It was my first Essie colour and I love the bottle, brush and the formula. I only gave it a 4 because my colour...

    This is a very pretty, creamy light lilac colour. Sometimes I think it's a little too light for my pale skin, but I can't help but continue to wear it because it's so pretty. The formula is awful...

    This color was very nice. Two coats got the job done and the consistency was great. A wonderful lavender with a lot of white in it, subtle and classy.

    This was my first Essie polish, and I am definitely impressed! Lilacism is a soft pastel lilac polish with a cream finish. It's very muted and not at all bright or garish. In one coat this was...

    Absolutely in love with this nail polish - I find pastel formulas to normally be quite streaky and difficult to apply, but this one goes on like a dream. The brush is quite flat and wide, so...

    Cute color but I only used it one time. It's very summerish so I guess I'll be using it more in some months

    As an OPI devotee, I thought I'd give this a try and see what all the Essie hype is about. Yes, the colour is fantastic and I do find it true to bottle with 3 coats (yes, 3...I'll get to that...

    Well, it was eight dollars as usual..The color is closer to white than purple in my opinion. A really "innocent' looking shade, probably won't buy it again, it just isnt vibrant at all...
