Application was great! The consistency of A Thousand Kisses is fluid, light and creamy with a medium viscosity and a silky, self-leveling slip over the nail. As I mentioned, this polish has an unusually translucent formula for the brand, which helps to render the pale, delicate color without the heaviness that might accompany a white-based formula. It does require a bit more attention to its application, being sheer with a slight proclivity to streakiness that went on best for me in thin to medium coats from a bead-loaded brush using the lightest touch possible. Any irregularities in the first coat even out very well to wearably opaque coverage with the second, and I would certainly wear it at two coats were I not photographing it. For the photos, I added a third coat. Cleanup is easy and straightforward. A Thousand Kisses dries naturally in very good time to a smooth shiny finish.

Such a beautiful milky pink! On me, A Thousand Kisses is definitely a YNBB (Your Nails But Better) sort of shade, but I imagine it would lean to more of a pale cherry blossom pink on richer skintones. My complexion is not hospitable to pastels, so I am very pleased to find a pale pink like this that simulates a pastel to a certain extent without actually being a white-based polish. My collection has something of a short bench when it comes to traditional spring-like shades.
Welcome, A Thousand Kisses, to my humble hoard!
love,
