Last week I reviewed YesStyle Korean Beauty Sample Kit, so if you read that post, you remember that I promised you swatches of this polish. Well, here they are!

Etude House PK011 Petite Darling Nail Polish is best described as soft baby pink creme, and the color reaches full opacity after 2 coats. Application-wise I thought it was slightly streaky, but a nice thick layer of Seche Vite top coat evened it all out nicely. The brush is a standard size, making the polish fairly easy to apply.
As with all Etude House products, the packaging is adorable – this nail polish looks like a pink potion, which could make a darling accessory to display on your vanity table. However, as pretty as it is, the longevity is quite disappointing, or at least it was on me. I got my first chip after two days, and I’m not even hard on my nails [I do all of the housework wearing silicone gloves, always]; a disappointing result from such an established brand.
THE VERDICT
Despite the decent color payoff and cute packaging, this polish has a quick-chipping formula, showing some very noticeable signs of wear after just two days.

Such a beautiful shade! I love the bottle design!
I know, isn’t it cute?
I love etude house and this shade is so pretty
It really is, wouldn’t you say it’s perfect for Spring? 🙂
I adore etude house.
I haven’t tried that many products from them, do you think I should?
Love the color and the packaging! My polish always comes off quickly – whether on its own, or I pick it off, so 2 days would be a long time for me! lol
Haha, well, the polish seems to last quite well on me, but this one started peeling right away.
