Essie 2010 The Art of Spring Collection: Lilacism


 Essie Lilacism (2 coats)

I bought Lilacism from Ulta when they had their polishes buy 2 get 1 free. Since I cannot get get Essie cheaper anywhere anymore, I tend to get mine from Ulta because they sometimes have sales on them and they pretty much always have coupons you can use (it is not a Prestige brand...I really hate that I can't use the coupons on certain brands). Lilacism is a light lavender creme that reminds me of a colored Easter egg. Since this polish came from Essie's Spring collection, this one is quite fitting. The application was very slightly watery, but it was very opaque and only needed 2 coats for full coverage. I do like this one a lot, but I don't think it is the most unique color (well, perhaps it is a bit unique for an Essie polish ;-) I hope you are enjoying your weekend! I spent about 4-5 hours at the library working on the dissertation. Blah!

Thanks Zara, Leslie and kellie!

Leslie, funny you should mention that, I just bought their Good to Go topcoat! I had problems with shrinkage on one color, but since then it's been pretty great!
