'Naice' pink nail polish recommendations please

I saw somebody on TV wearing pink nail polish recently and I want it! I usually keep away from pink as it can look a bit too girly, but this was lovely, not sparkly or shimmery at all, more a creamy, dusky pink colour, not too light or dark, maybe like a dusky marshmallow. I've googled all the brands I can think of and can't find anything similar. Any recommendations appreciated Smile

I use OPI Dulce de Leche which is somewhere between neutral and pink, good coverage, looks like you have a "proper" colour on your nails but is neutral enough not to show every tiny chip immediately.

I have an Essie one called No Pre-nup, not sure if you can get it now but they have a good range of bridal type polishes that sound like they might fit the bill. Mine is sheer with one coat but you can build it to be more opaque.

I have a Revlon Top Speed in Pink Lingerie but its maybe a bit Nesquiky in colour, it dries in 60 secs though.

I remember having a Rimmel one which was pale dusky pink called (I think) Ashes of Roses which maybe fits your description better.

Maybelline Rose Poudre is a really subtle pinky beige and v hard wearing

Nails Inc Bruton Street is a slightly darker pink but still quite subtle and not at all girly

I bought Dior Nail Glow on Friday and am absolutely loving it. It's a completely sheer dark pink base coat which obviously also has some UV reflective particles as in some lights it has a blueish tint. It just makes your nails lovely and shiny and pink and clean looking.

Most of my nails have broken off recently - I can't seem to get them all to the same length at the moment, so I had to cut them all down and they are really short Sad - so I am going to wear this for the next couple of weeks until they grow again.

Thanks Flowers for all the recommendations! I want them all now Blush

I think the one I saw before was probably Bruton Street - so extra Flowers Flowers to Lula Smile
