One of the worst I have tried - horribly streaky no matter how many coats I tried. I love most of Essie's polishes but this one turned out to be a huge disaster. I will definitely not repurchase.

I found this polish to be just one giant streak fest. Maybe I got a bad bottle, but I found this polish to be pretty much useless. What I do love is the color and sheer-ness of the polish. If it...

I wanted a sheer, delicate pink polish and this went on very milky and nearly opaque with just one coat. Very streaky, too. Not what I expected.

Another staple of mine, it always looks so cute and simple. It is no fuss and any chipping that may happen is not noticeable since it's so light. I always love looking at my hands when I wear this....

I really wouldn't buy this again, I'd try something new but that's just me. I really like this color despite not wanting to buy this again, which is weird because I would recommend this color to...

It's a pretty, very natural looking color. I apply two coats as one is too transparent. The finish has a nice shine, and it's not streaky. Lasting power could be better, but I've yet to find a nail...

Adore-A-Ball is my favorite Essie nail polish. I love the color, sheer with pink tint. I buy it over and over. I also love Mademoiselle. Essie nail polishes are wonderful, and priced reasonably.

Love this color for times when I want subtle nails. Goes on evenly, doesn't chip quickly, and the color covers very well for such a pale pink. I'm on my second bottle and will keep buying it.

This color is a little on the sheer side for me, but has enough color to give my nails a pretty, delicate pale pink sheen. Perfect for the rare occasions when I'm really in a mood to go subtle. ...

I could see how one reviewer below thinks that this is similar to Ballet Slippers. The two are a bit alike, although I like this one more. It goes on evenly and doesn't streak like Ballet Slippers...

Hands down, this is my favorite nail polish ever! It is a very natural, very light sheer pink color. I usually paint my nails twice per week, so I think this stuff stands up to chips well, much...

I wanted a light pink neutral color to wear everyday. I'm still torn. It looked very nice in the bottle and isn't bad on nails however it is very sheer. I do not have perfectly shaped nails and...

I love this colour but just didn't find this polish had any better lasting power than cheaper drug store brands I've tried. Too much chipping way too soon. At twice the price, it just wasn't worth it.

This is my favorite shade of nail polish, it's so sheer yet it gives you the look of a french manicure.

Very pretty, sheer, milky, barely-there pink. One coat gives just shine, two coats gives nails a white, clean look. Unfortunately it doesn't complement my tanned, ruddy skin.
