I wanted a nice peach, and heard bad things about Essie A Crewed Interest, so I searched for comparisions. Most were very thin, which I don't like. While this isn't a dupe, I like the shade, peach yet nude but not bland at all. It has shimmer, which I usually don't go for, but in this it really works. The only issues I have is that 1) it's not opaque in 2 coats. One of the few I have that really needs more, and that's surprising. It could also be my base, Nail Magic Base and Therapy, which I love, but does make my nail 'thristy' for the first coat so I tend to need more. And 2) the dry time seems forever on this one! For such a sheer (compared to creams) polish, it really could dry faster and ding less. Overall, pretty, but not a flawless application. :\

I am always hesitant to buy nudes/pinks/peaches because they are never opaque enough for me and I don't like seeing the white tip of my nail. This is not the case with this nail polish, I absolutely love it! It is opaque in 2 coats without it being streaky and dries fairly quick for CG nail polish. I do use seche vite with it, so it gives a great glossy shine. It's also the exact same tone and colour of my skin which can be a bit trippy to look at haha. My go to nude nail polish!

My first nude-ish nail polish. I really like it, perfect for my skintone and I've been using it for weeks! I thought it would be less peachy but I really like it and the glitter doesn't show up at all , very happy with this nailpolish!

This sandy neutral works well with my warm skin tone. The formula is a little thick for my preferences, but still applies cleanly. I think of this as a great interview color.

Love this nude peachy colour! Has the slightest shimmer to it but I think that makes it more summery which I like. The first coat was very sheer and I was worried it might take many coats to get it opaque, but after the 2nd it was pretty good and I gave it a third just to make it perfect. It also lasted a long time before chipping.

Sunset Sail is a peachy nude polish with barely noticeable silver microglitter. I don't have many nudes in my collection as they tend to be sheer, streaky, and it is always hard to pick a good one for your skin tone. But Sunset Sail is really nice. It does look better when I have less of a tan, but it doesn't look completely off or horrible, either. It goes on much more peach toned than it looks in the bottle, but like I said, it's actually a really pretty color. Nothing groundbreaking, but a good shade if you prefer more neutral colors or can't wear brights to work. I definitely recommend testing it or looking at lots of swatches online though, because I can see this looking really strange on certain skintones.
The polish was a little thick, but still easy to work with. It was totally opaque in two coats, and with a base coat and a top coat this lasted about 6 days on my nails, which is average wear for a China Glaze polish for me. Again, this isn't a OMG love it must-have color for me, but it's definitely nice to have around when I'm sick of this zillions of pastels and bright colors I own.

I'm waiting for my first coat to dry so I can do my second. It's a bit streaky but I can already tell the results will be beautiful after the second application. It looks like a slightly shimmery nude in the bottle but is more on the peachy side one the nails; which was exactly what I was looking for. Next time, I think I'll just go to the salon to have them apply it. Neutral colors are always tricky for me.

Love this color! The application was a pain though..streaky! But I love the outcome. It looks like sherbet ice cream. I think this would look good on most skin tones. I am currently pretty fair but have a warmer skin tone and I think it looks good.

I love the color I hate the consistency of the polish. Its quite thick and sheer at the same time.I need 3-4 coats( thank god it dries reasonably fast) just to even everything out and for an opaque color. It doesnt apply very evenly so multiple coats of polish are a necessity .The color is a pitchy pinkish nude creamy shade with the words tiniest amount of shimmer in it. My main problem with this is the uneven application.Also I find that on my quite long nails this color looks a bit trashy and second class . I think it would look better on short or medium length nails

I'm always on a lookout for nude work-appropriate nail polishes. Sunset Sail is one of my favourites. It is orangey peachy nude creme with micro shimmer (which barely shows up). This colour is subtle yet interesting, it reminds me of sorbet.

Consistency was good too, I got very even streak-free finish in just 2 coats and it dried fairly quickly. It is not as glossy as some of my OPI cremes but a good top coat can solve it

I think this is from the Spring 2011 Collection. Really brings out the best in my light skin tone...but this would probably work on everybody. It's a pretty apricoty sand color with super fine micro-glitter throughout. Very beachy yet understated...I recommend!
