Absolutely love this sheer pink polish. I'm a big Essie fan, but the truth is that when it comes to the sheer pinks and whites, it can really be hit or miss. Ballet Slippers is a perfect example of thatwhat a streaky disaster. Sorry, but any formula that requires 3 coats to be remotely even is just too high-maintenance for me. Yet I absolutely LOVE Mademoiselle, and this one is another win for me. This has a similar color to Ballet Slippers, yet it's completely self-leveling at only 2 coats. The first coat is a bit too sheer and a touch streaky, but unlike Ballet Slippers, when you paint on the second coat it just evens out perfectly. There is a VERY subtle fine shimmer in the formula, but it's really only slightly noticeable in direct sunlight. I am throwing away the Ballet Slippers and using this one from now on. Highly recommend.

Love this polish! Wore it on my wedding day on my fingers and toes and it was perfect-neutral with a tiny bit of shimmer that makes it look a bit more special than your standard 'my nails but better' polish. Was a great little gift for my sister and Mum who also wore it on the day. I also find it great for everyday wear at work for a polished, professional look. I wear two coats with a base and top coat and I get a good 5 days wear before it starts looking tired. Doesn't go on streaky, which I found Essie's Ballet Slippers did. I don't tend to finish nail polishes (as I'm a bit of an addict and have far too many!) but this is one that I'll be repurchasing.

Very nice for everyday, very natural. With top coat, lasts 4-5 days. You need 2 coats.

This was a miniature as part of the wedding collection thank goodness otherwise I would have been very disappointed.Its a neutral soft pink, almost unrecognisable as pink once applied. Its similar to those nude colours like Ballet Slippers, Mademoiselle etc however this one does have a VERY small sparkle to it. Saying that, you really cannot see it unless you are out in the sun & even then its so fine you might miss it.That all said, its a lovely formula. Goes on incredibly easy, dries fast & stays on for days & days before chipping/flaking.

Beautiful neutral-pink sheer with micro-shimmer. Looks beautifully polished, clean and professional. Not too pink, girly or cute. Two medium coats provides my ideal sheer coverage. For me, does not streak upon application and self-smooths for a even colour and texture across the nail. I really like that. The colour elegantly lengthens the fingers, since the opaque polish continues your skin tone right to the tips. I love that too! I top coat all my nail polishes every 2-3 days, this colour can go on a week-and-a-half, and chips are barely noticeable due to the subtle colour. I'll definitely repurchase this product.
