If ever a polish was wrongly named, then it is this one. This is not lavender. It is pink. OK, so it errs on the more purpley side of pink (albeit the pictures don’t show that at all well – my nails look full on Barbie pink looking at the pics!), but lavender to me is much more blue than this. Even in the light from murky, snow-bound south London, it still isn’t blue enough for me to think of it as a lavender. Hence it’s stashed with my pinks and not my purples.

I don’t usually like pink. Apart from green, it’s the colour I have the fewest polishes in. Nevertheless, I love this one. It took three coats to get it opaque enough so that you couldn’t see the nail line, but they went on really well. I really like the wide and flat brush; it helps application.
