Bikini So Teeny

It's been forevers since I posted on my beauty blog.  If you follow my personal blog then you should know why. If you don't, visit it here.  I'd like to keep this blog about beauty strictly.  

Anywhoo, I made my first Essie purchase the other day.  I got
Bikini So Teeny, Cute As A Button, and Shop Til I Drop.

Today I'll be reviewing Bikini So Teeny.  I have not worn the other two polishes yet.

Bikini So Teeny is from Essie's Summer 2012 collection, Bikini So Teeny :)  It's a pastel blue with a hint of purple.  It looks a bit periwinkle in certain lighting.  It appears to be a creme finish on the nails but shimmers are visible when in the bottle.  To me, the formula is runny like OPI and CG.  It took me 3 coats to achieve the opacity I desired because it was still streaky after 2 coats.  I can't say what the staying power is like yet.  I will say, I have it on my tips for about 3 days now with 2 coats of CG Top Coat and no chips yet.

Here's a look of my nails.
