Essie: Got Engaged

Hello!

Today I have a light pink to share.  Got Engaged is part of Essie's 2014 Wedding collection.  This is the only polish I bought from the collection.  My coworker was telling me how excited she was for this collection and I took a look at it more closely and it is a very pretty, delicate, sparkly, soft pink.  So, I bought it too.


Thoughts

This formula is medium think.  I would say it's similar to Fashion Playground.  Also like Fashion Playground, I think this polish would be best worn with 3 coats.  I tried to wear it with 2 coats and I still had patches.  For me this formula was a bit more difficult than my bottle of Fashion Playground.  I know other people have mentioned that they were disappointed with the formula for Fashion Playground, but I didn't have any problems with that one.  This one, there were a bit more problems.  Not sure why.

However, I do like the colour.  It's very pretty.  The shimmer is subtle but obvious.  

Side note, this polish did take a while to dry.  I remember trying to paint it and I might have done something strange because I immediately took it off to try to repaint it.  It didn't turn out that well.  I'm not sure what's going on.  


Breakdown
Basecoat: Essie First Base
Colour layer: Essie Got Engaged (3 coats)

I haven't seen Essie's 2014 Wedding collection at Wal-Mart or Shoppers Drug Mart.  I bought this polish on nailpolishcanada.com for $8.99 for 13.5mL (0.46 fl.oz.)
