I expected the polish to be sheer, I had already one of my 'millions' of purply nude nail polishes at the ready to apply as a coloured based to layer Lilac over. But Lilac doesn't need bases, lilac laughs in the face of coloured bases and gave me perfect opacity in 2 coats, coats which dried super fast, like it says on the tin.
No streaks, no bubbles, a smooth and very forgiving formula: just pure undiluted golden lilac wonder polish, not tested on bunny wabbits (scientific term) at the sweet price of £3.50
This is not a lilac polish, this is … a Marks and Spencer extra special, taste the difference, chosen by you Lilac Polish.
what: Marks and Spencer Limited Edition Quick Dry Lilac Polish
how much: £3.50. That's Three Pounds Fifty Pence
where: Selected Marks and Spencers (my local one didn't have any) or online.
disclaimer and credits: bought by me. Seen it first on emma's blog (imagination in colour)

This is so pretty! I wanted it when Emma posted it and had managed to forget about it, but now I want it even more! Damn you two! xx

Ohhhh so prettyyyyyy. I'm going to have to get me to Marksies. I've got a £25 gift voucher... What are the chances it all goes on polish and makeup?!

Gorgeous and I love the fact that it's not sheer!
This is so pretty! and really a great price, well done M&S :)
Delighted with that price point for pretty! Wonder what they'll charge us x
Wow, that's gorgeous! And so cheap!
Omg that is soo nice! Really unique! I've never tried any M&S stuff but I really should :) xx
This looks fab, I love the shimmer x :-)
Very pretty!
It's a really stunning colour! WANT!
That's so pretty! And only £3.50... I may have to buy that one!
I got this last week and can't wait to try it. Just a shame that while M&S have some great colours in the collection that others are so mainstream.
That is absolutely gorgeous! It is such a perfect summer shade. Might have to go on a trek to find an M&S that stocks it! xx
Yaaay I'm so glad you managed to find it! :D It looks amazing on you, and I am still jealous of your beautiful nails :( thank you sooo much for the mention too <3 I can always tell, there's about 100 more people than usual visit my site on any day that you mention me, lol! Thank you <3 so glad that you love it xxxxxxx
Oh....
Getting it!xx
This is so lovely, you have super nails to show it off but it really smacks of sunshine and summer and lets face it at the moment we are getting precious little of either. Great post. Thankyou
I absolutely adore lilac and that colour looks gorgeous on you. I have brought M&S nail polishes in the past and they have been rubbish but this looks lovely so might have to pop down there and have a look :-)
Love it, want it- now can you just remind me tomorrow when I'm at the shops to get it? I swear that shiny things & shoes just throw themselves at me in shops and I forget what I went in for. Today I went to
WH Smith for Glamour mag but I ended up in Debenhams with a pair of Red Herring shoes- its one of life's great mysteries!

Oh Liloo I do love you! Your writing is fabulous & hilarious. The polish is pretty too, though I know it wouldn't suit my skintone. How did you bear to pour so much onto paper for that gorgeous pic?!?
