I absolutely LOVE this nail polish! It works well with my fair skin tone and it's very feminine. The only downfall is that you have to apply three coats for you to reach your desired color. This is not an easy color to apply it yourself, so I usually take it with me when I get a manicure. Even my manicurist loves it! =)

One of my staple nail colours - always get asked what i'm wearing when i have this one on. Looks best in summer with a bit of a tan. Needs 3 coats though and takes a bit to dry - love the lilac undertone - very wearable and chic.

This is one of my favorite everyday natural shades, one I reach for when I want a clean, classy look! But like other reviewers, I did not see the lilac in it, it looks more like a very milky pinkish white.

I only did not give it a 5 because of the streakiness and the fact that I needed 3 coats to get a full coverage. By the 3rd coat and careful application, the streakiness disappears....you have to take alot of care during the application but it is so pretty, for me it is worth it. Would repurchase.

This is a very sheer pink nail polish but I find it a little bit too sheer. The first coat provides no color at all, just looks like a clear undercoat and the second coat is when you can see a little bit of pink. This is a pretty color but not that special or pigmented. It would make a good everyday color but again, it would take at least 2 coats to make the color show up.


Overall a okay nail polish. I wasnt disappointed in it but it's not a must have either.

I love this shade so much .. I have about four bottles of it in my stash! Tickets to Paradise is a pale semi-opaque pinky/white with a lilac undertone. This is one of my favorites .. because it's sheer, but not *too* sheer .. this has just the right amount of pigment and it's great to use as a base to layer other colors over. I love to use a coat of this, and then a coat of Rosy Future or Heart Throb over it. One of my staple colors that's incredibly versatile and one I reach for left and right!

This bottle was given to me by a really sweet MUAer, but I would purchase a second bottle for sure. None of the "lilac" really shows on me either, it's more of a pinked white. I used three coats because I was looking for an opaque finish, and I loved it so much I used it on tips AND toes! It didn't apply very streakily at all, and IMO it's just plain gorgeous, PIC:

OPI's Tickets to Paradise is what Essie's Ballet Slippers should have been. I am only recently getting into pale, milky shades, and this one is solid. In the bottle it's an orchid-tinted milky white creme. On the nail, however, the tint is pink. It looks a lot like Essie's Ballet Slippers to me, only without the hideous streaking. One coat can be a little streaky, but at two coats it's pretty opaque, though you can still see your tips through it (and they do look brighter, as another reviewer noted). At three coats it's a very pretty, clean opaque pale pale pink. I usually go with darks, reds and vamps, but this pale is a lovely change.

This is my favourite OPI colour at the moment. It's such a pretty, super-pale lilac that would look good on any skin tone. It can streak a bit so be sure to use a very thin, fast-drying base coat before applying. Used with the OPI ridge filler, you only need two coats. Otherwise, I use four to get the colour to be as rich as what it looks like in the bottle. Definitely an amazing colour.

very pretty very pale cool toned orchid spiked nude. it's actually very pale whitened milky pink on me, but milky pale orchid in the bottle. it's sheer but can be almost opaque with only 2 coats. 3 coats would make it totally opaque. minimal streaking, but only because I am the worst nail painter in the world. I am surprised it streaked as little as it did. I love OPI formula. the shine is beautiful. I love pale nude semi opaque nails. they look so clean and modern to me. and when it dries it's a perfect "my nails only lighter, brighter and super clean" looking.

To use OPI’s description – this is a pale milky “orchid” in the bottle, but not much of that orchid shows through when painted on – which is kind of good in a way (I don’t wear purple or lilac toned anything very well). I did like that this made the whites of my nails look whiter. All in all, it’s okay, but not a must-have.
