A sheer pearly blue colour with pink shimmer. It is very transparent so you can't expect it to be as in the bottle. Otherwise you'd have to apply 4 coats of more. Applied with 1 or 2 coats it gives a nice shine and hint of colour.
Should be good for summer for those who have blue based undertones.
The funny thing is that I'd been owning a bottle for about 10 years, and the polish is still thin and hasn't separated. I never used any thinners on it.

I HATE this sky blue-pink. I am fair with yellow undertones (asian) and this color makes my nails look dingy, drab, and decayed. I'm so serious!! I really wanted to like this product, and spent nearly an hour and 30 mins trying to make it look better with a good base and top coat, etc etc.. but it failed to do any good! This color reflects different shades of color (at one angle it looks slightly pink, and at another angle light green).. But unfortunately, it looks pretty dirty on me.

Even though this was meant as a french manicure overlay, it is mostly opaque with 2 coats.
i like others was drawn in by the in-the-bottle look but real life wear is not as ethereal as one would hope. i would actually call this a safe-but-not-that-boring-for-work color with 2 coats, where it wears as a dusky lavender with frosty pink shimmer highlights the 2 coats is within my medium skin shade so it blends in.
maybe also a good first-date color when you need to your nails to be quiet but still back up your love for purples.

I really do love this color and wish so much it looked better on me. The picture here is accurate, the polish doesn't apply as dark as it looks in the bottle, but it's an amazing color. It's a sky blue pearl/frost with hints of purple and pink duochrome to it, really multi-tonal and beautiful. On, it looks sometimes lavender, sometimes blue with that pink frosted duochrome to it. Great, great lasting power too. It's just that I have olive-yellow skin and on feet this kinda makes me look ill and on my hands it really doesn't work either. I guess I should give up on these lighter, cool toned frosts for polish, sadly. On a fair or person with pink tones in their skin, I think this would be a lovely, lovely color. Too bad that's not me. This is a fairy-like color and I wish so much it worked on me.

The first time I tried this color I wasn't too thrilled with it. I was hoping it would end up the same shade it is in the bottle, but it's pretty sheer. So the next time I decided to try it I first used two coats of Orly Wishing Well, then one layer of Sky Blue-Pink. Shazam! Gorgeous and just what I was looking for. The result is a shimmery blue/pink/purple combo that is easy to see and has lots of color. I get tons of compliments every time I wear it, and my boyfriend says it's his favorite of all my polishes. Win/win!

I bought this because I loved the color in the bottle. As others have mentioned it is a lovely baby blue color with a pink iridescence (SP?) However, once I applied it to the tips of my GGG hand it was a very sheer rose gold color. Definitely not what I was expecting. Although, I received several comments/compliments when I wore to work today over french tips. Very unusual color. But I do not think that I would purchase. Would probably look better on someone who has cooler skin tones.

Sky Blue Pink is a very unusual color. In the bottle, it looks blue with a pink shimmer. However, it goes on the nails as a sheer. It would probably take 5 coats to get the color in the bottle or layering over something more opaque. On the nails, it looks like a grayed lilac or grayed taupe with flashes of pink, bronze, and sometimes even a yellowish green. The bronzey pink shimmer is VERY noticeable on the nails. It's a difficult color to describe. I'm a cool-toned PPP and it looks very nice on me. I'm not sure how it would look on warmer skin tones because it is definitely cool-toned. Also, if you don't like gray or taupe tones in your polish, you may want to steer clear of it. I think it's an incredibly unique shade and worth owning. The polish most similar to it that I can think of is Essie's Sand of a Beach.

This is a lovely baby blue sheer nail polish with flashes of cotton candy pink, just as the name implies. In certain light, the polish looks like a lavender sheer, but in most conditions, it is a subtle blue with an opalescent pink flash. It's really beautiful on its own, bult also layered over a pink or French tips.

This is from the French Revolution shades of French manicure colors. As you might expect it is a sheer, but a sheer with attitude. It is a shimmery (but not glittery) color that, depending on the light, flashes blue, pink and even gold. This is not a subtle flash either, you can see the colors well. But the blue IS subtle there won't be any "are you wearing BLUE nail polish" comments. I know my description sounds crazy, so you should try it out! I ADORE this color and I am a sheer nail polish FREAK. I am PPP to LLL with neutral to cool undertones. It lasts a week on my nails with a good base and top coat. I will be reaching for this ALOT! This is one of my unexpected pleasant surprise shades that has earned holy grail status.
