Essence - Ultimate Pink

I gotta be honest.  Now pink isn't my favourite polish colour.  It's not my favourite anything colour actually.  But I will say I do like like dusty pinks, and really sheer soft pinks.  Although I've never really been a fan of bright pinks.  But the other day I wanted to do some nail art that involved pink so I decided to buy Essence's Ultimate Pink.  It's not like I was spending a whole lot of money on it so why not?

Let me just say formula wise it was splendid. 2 coats, no hassle, evened itself out perfectly, and had a shiny finish without topcoat.  My personal problem with this Barbie pink is no matter what it always looks tacky, and gawdy on me. And to be honest I think pinks like this look that way on sooo many people(Not everyone. Power to you if you can rock it!).  It's not something I would just wear on a Tuesday.  It's something I would cover in a crazy design on a liquor fueled night out with the girls and then take it off the minute my hangover wears off. But maybe that's just me.



Mattified...just because.

What are your feeling on pinks?  Or is there any colour or finish you personally can't get into?

  1. It looks really similar to China Glaze Pink Voltage (which is what I'm wearing right now), any idea if it is??

    1. This looks a BIT darker. Also Pink Voltage has blue shimmer throughout where as this is just a pure cream.

    1. Maybe it will grow on me. That's kinda like how I felt about glitters. Used to hate them but now I love how obnoxious they can be :P
