    I am a LLL Asian and this is too pale for my yellow toned skin. It looks pasty and makes my hand look sallow. Will not buy again. Too much hype. This is perfect for yellow toned PPP's or those...

    I think this delicate color is lovely, but it's not worth buying because it streaks like crazy and goes on with a weird, almost gluey consistency. I'm going back to OPI and not looking back. Does...

    Blah. What <i>is</i> the deal with this? It is boring, it is streaky, and it is expensive. So overrated. The colour is this boring *yawn* concoction *yawn* of *snore snore*, i mean, pink, no...

    I would give this a five if the formula was improved...no matter HOW well I apply this somehow it always manages to look streaky and go on a little thick. (I will admit that the streakiness does...

    I love pale pink and neutral polishes, and have tried tons of them. Ballet slippers is much less pink than I expected, and is quite sheer. The application was streaky as well. It did seem to have...

    Beautiful baby pink color that gives nails a great natural polished look. It doesn't streak on me and leaves a nice glossy finish. Essie has an amazing range of nude and baby pink colors.

    I don't know why this shade is so impressive. It's hard to make this color sheer, and any other way it just looks unnatural.

    One of my favorites! So sheer and delicately beautiful. Paid $6 and I'm very happy with it! Supposedly "THE" nailpolish to have, now I have it! Described as "pinkiest pink with white undertones"...

    Lovely color, but application is indeed tricky on this one. It does streak terribly if you don't apply it quickly. I didn't find the lasting power on this one to be great especially compared to...

    This is a really great nail polish. Normally, I go for deep, dark reds, which is not smart of me, since I'm horrible at applying nail polish. Anyway, this is so natural and classy. It really does...

    Although I like the color (soft baby pink) I can't seem to get it to apply smoothly. It goes on so streaky that I can't leave the house with it on. Even Wet & Wild nail polish looks better. It's a...

    This is a very light milky pink color. I don't like it, it goes on streaky and the color just looks odd on my nails.
