I absolutely love this shade of blue! One of my favorites. I do agree with other reviewers. The formula is a bit thin so it takes at least 3 coats sometimes 4. But I love this shade of blue so much that I'm willing to overlook it. :)

I love this colour by Essie. It does tend to be a bit streaky but can be fixed by putting 3-4 coats. I love this color and is perfect for spring/summer!

Beautiful color, but like many Essie polishes this was so streaky! Even 4 coats didn't make it as even as I would prefer. I also don't care for the brush, which I think is kind of small. I like the unique color (I can't think of a dupe) but I don't know when I will feel like dealing with the application issues again.

Beautiful light blue! Totally flattering on my hands, love that it is flawless in 2 coats. I completely agree with the reviewer below that I could totally wear it in conservative settings. Yet it is soft and springy, and cheery! The shimmer in it is very fine and can only be seen if you stare at it very close. Love!

This is a very light blue-gray. On me, it looks a bit more blue than in the bottle. There is a very subtle shimmer in the bottle, but on the nail is not noticeable, even in direct sunlight - unless you are looking very, very closely. This was streaky with the first coat, but evened out by the second coat. I had my usual results with wear, five days with no chips and minimal tipwear. I love blue polish but feel like I can't wear it in certain settings (I am a pharmacy student) but this one is so subtle, I feel like I can get away with it.

This is a go-to light blue creme summer pedi color for me. I also wear it as a spring mani with a topper of OPI Kyoto pearl. Very pale blue. So sad this is d/c'ed but it is now 2012 and I have one bottle left and I love it as a pedi on its own or topped (again) with OPI Kyoto Pearl. I love thisplae, creamy. light blue. A great wedding pedi option, too!

Very pretty pale blue, almost white/gray polish. Applies and wears like a creme, but has subtle/fine shimmer. Looks almost dove gray in direct sunlight. Indirect sunlight reveals a pale blue shade. 1st coat a bit streaky, but 2nd coat made it fully opaque. 3 coats needed for smooth, even coverage.
