It might just be my perception. Lilacism, Zoya Malia, and a couple others, for example. Blech. Now, give me a bright, rich, dark, or vibrant purple, and I can pull that off with no problems at all.

Sometimes we get so excited about getting the polish that when we put it on, it lets you down because you had a certain image in your mind of what it'll look like. I always give a polish a second chance.<br /><br />The pink doesn't actually look that warm to me. If it were warm-toned, there'd be gold flecks instead of silver. I'm seeing just pinky/lavender and silver. I think it looks good on your hands (this coming from the vampire pale cool-toned girl. See the photo next to my name for reference).Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03732028264170732529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404413697013742957.post-11521966233221452032010-07-20T17:03:36.470-07:002010-07-20T17:03:36.470-07:00@jaljen - Incognito looks really cool in pics!

It is true that it happens, but it so bums me out!<br /><br />@Aurora - Thanks for the compliment and sympathy! :)<br /><br />@Zara - I think it's happened to all of us at least once, and on some level we should expect it, but it still sucks!<br /><br />@Vixxan - Sounds like you're experienced with lemming regret!!<br /><br />@Grace - Ah girlfriend, I knew you'd understand...i like thinking that it's her, not me. I think you're right - its too much of a mauve-pink for me! I've done the same thing with OPI Chapel of Love like 80 times....its so pretty in the bottle. I think I've had three of them and keep swapping them away, then getting them again. We are slaves to our skintone....<br /><br />@Jackie S - I will indeed dive right back in :) Thanks love!<br /><br />@Apriltini - I have moved on! I hope it finds a new home with someone who loves it. Are you warm-toned?? I'm cool toned and can't seem to go wrong with lilacs, but I have the hardest time finding a warmer pink that works for me!<br /><br />k2kkittytokarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18115922034476942345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404413697013742957.post-90395444874980540322010-07-20T12:54:06.094-07:002010-07-20T12:54:06.094-07:00If you don't like, move on.

It's a pretty color, just not what I thought it'd be. I've also been on the hunt for the perfect light, sheer, pink, only to be disappointed by shades that are too white, chalky, or streaky. Don't get me started on lilac polishes, either. Can we all say "lobster hands"? *shudder*Apriltinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08967230483455662307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404413697013742957.post-55792762426082968542010-07-20T11:49:07.522-07:002010-07-20T11:49:07.522-07:00I love the polish, but I get what your saying, I s...I love the polish, but I get what your saying, I say "dive back in" and resume the search :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02682218795875849598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404413697013742957.post-50946284742792232732010-07-20T10:43:00.006-07:002010-07-20T10:43:00.006-07:00It's not you, it's her :) The finish is v...It's not you, it's her :) The finish is very modern, but the base color is too "grandma pink". I have done this before, multiple times. Even multiple times WITH THE SAME POLISH! <br /><br />I love love LOVE OPI Hawaiian Orchid. It looks terrible on me. I bought a bottle years ago, tried it and was so disappointed. I came back to it a couple of times and eventually swapped it away. A few years later, I bought another bottle, determined to try it again and... obviously, it still looks awful on me. I'll still accidentally pick up a bottle when I'm browsing like "ooh, that's pretty, what color is it?", but now I know better and leave it on the rack.Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04551976181761103171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404413697013742957.post-43840339097791825852010-07-20T08:42:42.044-07:002010-07-20T08:42:42.044-07:00It's very pretty and I know that feeling all t...It's very pretty and I know that feeling all too well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11782325470604798082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6404413697013742957.post-79783297545939580812010-07-20T08:12:43.797-07:002010-07-20T08:12:43.797-07:00Hm.
