yes i do like like it ;). This color is the right shade of sweet pastel light purple. If you are looking for a purple nail polish, this is the one. Looks really good on any complexion. This color is perfect for any season.
Like all the OPI nail polishes this one was smooth and hassle free to apply and the best thing is it does not chip for min of 4 days on my hand so yay! OPI creme are really lovely hand streak free so they are such a delight to apply<3. One more thing that i loved about O.P.I.Do you lilac it? is that it is opaque in just one coat, how amazing is that. I applied to coats and the finish was just brilliant and one more star for this because it dries really fast. One thing that i did notice that thisparticular nail polish did not have any kind of a glossy finish this was more subtle and not glossy too. The brush is wide so the application is quick and love the formula.

OPI's "Do You Lilac It" has got to be one of my favourite polishes. It is the right shade of sweet pastel light purple (that's so trendy now) and it goes well with my medium-fair skin tone. It does not scream attention but I've received many compliments for this shade.

DYLI? is the perfect purple! It is not too dark, not too light, not too pastel, not too warm, not too cool. It's a perfect good for every skin-tone purple. Creamy opaque color in 2 easy coats, it also dries to a nice shiny finish.

This is my favourite nail polish of all the ones I own! It was my first ever opi polish and still my favourite (I now have about 30). As others have said it goes on so smoothly and effortlessly. You could get away with one coat if you're really careful, but I prefer to do 2 :) with a bade coat and too coat it will last forever! This normally lasts on me for about a week before I start to get minimal tipwear. The colour is just gorgeous! The perfect light pastel purple. Perfect for spring, summer or even Easter time :) purple is my favourite colour nail polish to wear and I own more purple than any other colour, but I always go back to this one :) the only downside is the price, here in Australia it's 20 dollars a bottle. But you can always order online :) I paid top price for this baby but it was well worth it :)

I own over five hundred OPI nail polishes and I must admit this one makes it to my top five. OPI's I Lilac It just has a sweet soft quality about it without being a conformist nude color. It's hip, professional, girlie and is neutral enough to rock with nearly any afterwork outfit. It does take at least two coats but with a top coat it can last up to two weeks. It's just the stuff unicorns are made of :)

I absolutely LOVE this colour. I am a massive OPI fan, and I think this polish has the best formula I've ever seen, even for OPI standards. It applies like an absolute dream - no streaks at all and completely opaque on the first coat. It applies so smoothly and stays that way after it dries. As with all OPI, it doesn't chip for 5-7 days (with base and top cpat.) I adore this polish, purple is my favourite colour and this is a really beautiful shade of it. Everyone should try this at least once. The only downside for me is, as with all OPI, how expensive it is (20 AUD is the average price of OPI here in Australia) however it is well worth the price.

I love this colour. It's a perfect purple. Pretty opaque in one coat but 2 is always better :) lasts for a week with topcoat.

I really like this purple.. The OPI brush is pretty amazing.. And it is really nice with just one coat, two coats would be best.. If only it was cheaper in Au.. But definitely worth it.

This colour is amazing! The perfect purple I was looking for. It applies extremely smooth & with two coats it is already opaque. I didn't have time to apply a top coat but I am impressed with the staying power of this polish. It has been 3 days and there has been little to no chipping whatsoever.

I don't only lilac it, I love it! The color is so beautiful! I love every shade of purple! This nail polish appears to be a fun but elegant pastel purple. Perfect for the spring! My first OPI nail polish! Love it! I am starting my new collection of pastels, and this color is a keeper.

Why yes I do lilac it! I picked up this polish just because it seemed like a cult favorite on mua, youtube and many polish blogs. This polish applies like total butter. If you are careful you could just leave it at one coat. The color is flattering on me and I would imagine that it is universally flattering. This polish grabbed a few compliments too, which is always a sure sign of a winner. Thanks for the recommendation gals. I hope that this inspires someone else to give this must have a shot!

I'd just like to add that I looked through some pictures a friend took of me. You can only get a small glipse of my nails in them but instantly I was reminded how much I loved the subtle, soft purple and I am going to have to paint my nails this color very soon.

I recently bought around 12 OPI polishes in one single day because i went crazy, but I'm loving all the colours I chose so far! I haven't had the chance to try them all yet, but last week I went to my salon with this polish in hand, and I loved how it looked!!


It is this pale cool-toned purple that, just like it's name, resembles the colour of lilacs, maybe a tad bit lighter. It is gorgeous with or without a top coat, but I like how the top coat adds more shine and make the polish last longer :) I just use a regular top coat from OPI.
It won't chip for a few days like all the other OPIs, but you have to be careful! I think this is a great shade for those that like pastel colours, and it's def a nice colour for spring and summer! I prefer slightly darker nails in the winter time!

Nice, soft, mid- toned purple shade that applies evenly/smoothly. Looks great on all skin tones. I apply two coats, and the coverage is very creamy and opaque.

I can't speak highly enough of this colour. It's the perfect shade of purple and I think of all my OPI's its the one I wear the most. It does take a few of coats to get an even coverage, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. For anyone looking for a pretty purple polish, YOU'VE FOUND IT!

This nail polish is a nice creme lilac pastel color. It looks the same color in the bottle when applied to your nails. I always get compliments every time I wear this color. 5/5 Stars

I really like this color. It's an opaque creme nail polish and is nice and glossy. It's a light lilac/lavender shade that has enough brightness to prevent my nails or skin looking "dead" or "grey" as can sometimes happen with light lilac/lavender nail colors. I was surprised that when I applied this it was streaky (I don't usually have that problem with OPI nail polishes) and the second coat was slightly streaky too, so I had to add a third coat to get a good opaque finish. Even though I really like the color, when I've finished this bottle I won't repurchase it because it doesn't jump out at me as an absolute favorite. UPDATE: This has really grown on me and it's one of my faves at the moment so I would buy it again.

I love lavender polishes on my pale (NW15) skin! I bought this as a substitute for my Essie Lilacism and this one wins by FAR! The colour pay-off is wonderful, creamy and smooth application, and the staying power was excellent as with the majority OPI polishes. It's wearable for any season winter or summer..

I'm a little surprised at the reviews saying the colour is a dark purple, and does not appear as light as it does inside the bottle. Its a light lavender one me, I suppose different skin tones can make the polish appear warmer or cooler! Anyways - one of my new favorites.

I love this color, it brings out a tan and it is VERY glossy. It lasts for many days before chipping! Beautiful!
