Essie - Lady Like (Swatch and Review)

Hi lovelies  How's your weekend? I had a lazy Sunday, sleeping, eating and reading some blog posts probably filled up most of my time ha ha ha... however, I did manage to do my nails ^_^ the weather was gloomy yesterday and today, but not this nail polish! This Lady Like is my favorite shade from Essie's Got a Brand New Bag Collection for fall 2011. A soft dusty mauve with a hint of pink cream polish, very sophisticated, elegant, and chic! Depending on the lighting, something it looks like a dusty pink with a hint mauve and sometimes it looks more mauve, but either way, it's gorgeous! This goes well with pretty much anything and everything, wonderful for everyday, office, interview, etc. It compliments my medium to light skin tone very well, very elegant looking. A beautiful dusty pinky mauve shade that doesn't make your fingers looking lifeless.

The formulation is nice, you only need 2 coats to have a complete opaque coverage. The consistency is great, not thick and not streaky, and it "self-level" which makes the application even smoother and easier. Yet I found this polish took so long to dry "completely". Yes it dries to the touch with Seche Vite top coat, but after 20-25 minutes waiting time, I noticed there're some tiny dents on my nails, so I waited another 10-15 minutes. Nevertheless, the result is definitely worth waiting, it's very chic and elegant! 

 Thanks for reading! Have a wonderful Monday!
