A lovely lilac/lavender shade. This shade provides a pop of color on the nails, but is also very easy to wear as it remains soft and feminine.
Pretty easy to reply and remove and has decent wear time. Good price and doesn't take a decade to dry which is a big perk for me.

It doesn't look like much in the bottle but it is a very flattering shade on me. I usually where this on my toes and it last for months.

This is my favorite color, so I immediately picked this up at Walgreens a few weeks ago. The polish was a little thick but was fine. I only needed 1-2 coats for it to be fully opaque. It dried pretty quickly, about 15 minutes? Well the Xtreme Wear part is right, I put it on exactly ten days on my fingernails without top/base coat and the only chips are at the top
for my toenails, which were painted about fifteen days ago, there's still most of the polish left!! I really want to buy some more colors of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear. Love it! its pretty cheap, too, at $2.50 a bottle.

Love the color and it dried fast and shiny but the consistency is awful, thick and goopy, making application difficult. Be prepared to use polish thinner with this one.

i absolutely love the color!! one of my favs for the spring and summer! and its opaque!! but the formula isnt that great it does last pretty long but it takes forever to dry and it gets VERY thick and goopy only after a few uses. i have repurchased this product cuz i love the color and how long it lasts. my first bottle after i finished about half way through it got very goopy!! it was just so hard to apply. since i love the color i bought a new bottle because i was hoping that my first one was just bad bud after about 4 uses it got really thick. im so disappointed since the color is so gorgeous. I also have 3 other colors in this formula mint sorbet blue me away and strobe light. the only one that didnt get goopy was blue me away but i think its because i hardly ever wear it. the other two however both got extremely goopy. im so disappointed because i love all the colors and they go on very opaque. i probably wont repurchase because it will get thick on me again

Love this color! It's a beautiful light light purple, and it's shiny and it doesn't chip easily like other polishes. Great!

I needed to stock up on spring/summer nail polish colors and I have a few other polishes from the Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear line that I absolutely love. I decided to get this gorgeous color (Lacey Lilac). I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it out for the first time. After putting on two coats and a clear top coat, my nails looked amazing. This is the perfect pastel purple for spring/summer. It dries quickly and I've had it on for almost a week now and it hasn't chipped at all! (That is a miracle in itself because with 2 kids and me doing dishes, cleaning, playing outside with the kids, etc. it's inevitable that my nail polish will start to chip. This polish hasn't though, and I'm very surprised.) I have a ton of nail polish, and this is definitely my new favorite. I can't wait to buy more colors from this line. I would recommend this to anyone that wants a gorgeous, pigmented, pastel color and is looking for a fast dry nail polish. This is a great product for someone that works a lot or doesn't have much free time. You can just paint your nails, wait a few minutes, and you're good to go. I am 110% satisfied with this polish and would recommend it to anyone that wants a pastel colored, beautiful, long lasting nail polish.

Perfect color for spring and summer! I have tried a few of the Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear line and so far i'm very impressed. They are around $2 to $3 depending where you get it and the formula is great for a drugstore polish. Lacey Lilac is the prettiest pale lilac purple and I get compliments on it all the time. It looks great on my fair skin but I imagine anyone can wear it. Surprisingly this isn't that streaky for being a pastel polish and it only needs two coats to be opaque. The lasting time is pretty good and the polish holds up pretty well. I love this color and I know I'll be getting a lot of use out of it.

I absolutely love this colour! It is the perfect purple spring colour. Seriously every time i wear this i get multiple comments on my nails. To reach an opaque look it only took about 2-3 coats. With top coat i found it lasted about 4-5 days. I would definitely buy it again!

I LOVE this nail polish! I actually decided to get this one because I remembered how much I loved Sally Hansen's Mint Sorbet last year. I usually don't go for purples but I saw that every line in the drugstore had a shade similar to this one so I decided to give it a try. It's a beautiful cream finish and looks amazing in just one thick coat (or two thin coats). It's been four days since I first applied it and there are no chips!! I am quite fair and have slightly yellow undertones. The polish makes my hands look a little more tan too which is perfect for this time of year :)

I love this color. Application is okay as well. Even seems to last a little bit longer than some of the other polishes I own. I wear this one a lot.

I love it! The colour is so feminine and pretty. It has pink undertones and I think it suits my skin tone well (I have yellow undertone).

Maybe I'm just not used to the Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear line of polishes but I found this to be extremely hard to apply. The formula was very runny and the design of the applicator just made it worse. That aside, I really wanted to like this color, but it turns out this particular shade of light purple out of the bottle was not my cup of tea. It looked wrong and a little garish against my tan skin and yellow undertone. I've seen a similar shade worn by a friend of mine who has very fair skin and it looked gorgeous, so this may just be a case of me choosing the wrong color for myself. For now, I've been wearing it on my toes and it looks young and cute.

I love this! It applies so well, and it lasts quite long. I use my hands a lot (to wash dishes, for example), and it started to chip from the 4th day. The color is beautiful.

I was very disappointed with this polish, but not because I didn't love it. I like it, it's just that it was NOT what I was expecting. I was looking for a very light, pastel, white-with-a-touch-of-purple color. And in the bottle it looked only slightly darker than that.
Oh, how different it actually was. I do like the color, but I was so frustrated by its shade. It's quite an unflattering shade of purple, being so /medium/ toned. I have yellow undertones, but I am tan. This color gave me almost mannequin-hands, if you could believe that. My other friends, with very similar skin colors/tones, tried this out, and said the same.
This polish has not-so-subtle pink undertones. I was debating whether I should get this polish, or Essie's Lilacism. As the Essie polish is almost quadruple the price, I decided on this one. And for only $1.50, I didn't really have anything to lose. I swatched Lilacism a few days ago, though, and I'm kicking myself for not getting that one instead. It's almost exactly what I wanted, and much more of a purple than a pink-ish purple.

As for the formulation and brush, it half sucked. My brush was terrible, all bent up and battered. I should have checked it before I bought it. Even so, it didn't work terribly. I managed it just fine. The formula is super thick, and I got full opacity in one coat. This Xtreme wear line lives to its name, also, because this lasted for weeks.

Overall, it's a pretty color, but it's just so medium-toned, it looks weird on my skin.

This is an absolutely BEAUTIFUL shade of purple. I normally hate all purples on me (excluding vampies) but this is PERFECT! It suits my skin tone so well, and as opposed to most pastel shades, this has an amazing formula. It isn't streaky, and most of all, it's opaque! It covers in two coats, dries quickly, and has a beautiful shine to it. I will buy this over and over again. I, again, am shown that there is no need to buy expensive brands while Sally Hansen still is pumping out nail polishes.

I love this colour. It looks gorgeous with my new Palm Springs tan! I wore it while in PS too and got lots of compliments because the colour is so pretty and fresh and understated and 'mod'. I'm really impressed with the long wear and how easy and quick the application was. So far it's been a week of travel, planes, pools, hikes, concerts, restaurants and I got through all that with only a touch up. And I didn't use my OPI chip skip. I always use my Seche Vite however - the best quick dry top coat I've ever used!

This is a lovely color. It also gives good coverage with 2 coats. The second coat is just touch up for me. It is still going pretty strong with three days of wear. The color is rich and opaque. Great color to lighten things up and for the summer time.
