This is a very pretty color, and unique in my large-ish stash. As pictured, it's a periwinkle cream. The cream finish is such that it's almost just slightly jelly-like to me. I'm not sure if it's my bottle, but mine goes on a bit streaky and require 3 coats to be opaque. It levels itself out pretty well, and it really is lovely. I took off a lipp for the brush-I sort of hate Essie brushes, they're too small. All in all it's very pretty and I don't really mind the extra coat.

I absolutely love this, it's such a pretty color, it's the perfect summer light blue with just a touch of lavender to it. For me it's definately a spring and summer shade, looking forward to wearing it again! It needs to coats, but stays a good week.

This is a pretty pale blue that, if putting on more than one coat, can then be intensified into a striking blue on the nails. Perfect for Spring and Summer. Does not go on streaky.

This polish applied smoothly and evenly, and I only needed two coats to get full coverage. The wear was fantastic - after a week I was ready to try another color, but other than a little gap around the cuticle, there was no tip wear or chips! It's a very intense periwinkle color and I got a lot of compliments on it. Definitely a good shade for cool toned skin.

I love this colour on my toes rather than on my fingers. It's a pretty blue for the summer when I wear sandals. I really like the finish on it and it lasts for at least two weeks!

One of my favorite polishes. It is a very gorgeous color.

On the surface it is a blue with purple undertones. It's like a lilac mixed with a little more blue.

I feel really elegant when I wear it. It's a very classy color that will nab you tons of compliments. Whenever I wear this people always notice!

Totally worth the $8.

Btw you might also love liliacism.

This colour, to be really honest, didn't appeal to me at the beginning.

Being my second Essie colour, I was definitely not disappointed as Essie does really well with milky colours and I can get a week's worth of wear.

But back to the color, I personally didn't find it as interesting but I got SO MANY compliments on it while I was working. Everybody was mesmerized by the color and said it looked really nice. I noticed on the pictures I saw online, the colour was more indescribable. The pictures were more blue while in real life, the color is a bit more of a blue and purple and green mix..really hard to describe. Everybody that complimented on the color couldn't even put its beauty into words. I was really surprised when everybody said "I love that color" or "I love your nails" because I didn't expect it to grab so much attention. I'm glad I grabbed this at my local Wal-Mart. A good buy if I get so many compliments! Teehehe ~
