When you're as pale and as blonde as I am, yellow is not always your friend. I tend to gravitate more towards pastel yellows, but Deborah Lippmann Walking On Sunshine looked so summery-y and happy that I couldn't resist trying this bright yellow creme. I don't really have anything else in my stash like it!
The formula is the nicest I've ever experienced with a yellow polish. My other Deborah Lippmann yellow, Yellow Brick Road, is a complete pain in the ass to apply but I'm happy to report that Walking On Sunshine is the total opposite. It has a little drag to it, but otherwise is surprisingly creamy. I used three coats here.
The color is definitely different and I can appreciate that. I wouldn't necessarily say it's all that flattering on me, but screw it--it's bright and fun and I like it! :P
So excited you loved this one's formula! I was wondering if you've tried the yellow from OPI Brazil -- I don't have that one, but I've heard good things about it, too.
ReplyDeleteI was a little apprehensive, especially after what an ass-fest the formula for DL Yellow Brick Road was, but this one is SOOOO much better! I haven't tried the yellow from OPI Brazil yet, but I would like to! I was actually debating whether I wanted the OPI or Walking On Sunshine and the DL won out. I'm waiting to see if I can land the OPI on clearance, but either way, I'd like to pick it up at some point!
DeleteLOL @ ass-fest. That sounds about right -- I never had it but I know a couple people who did, and yeah.
DeleteDitto on waiting for the OPI to go on clearance (or mega sale, etc.)! Actually, this is how I feel about most of the Brazil collection, and how I've felt about most of the OPI seasonal collections for a while. A few of the OPI Germany ones are on clearance at Ulta, and I'm still like, nah bro, I'm good.
This color is do fun and cheery!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :) The name really is fitting, because this is such a bright and happy yellow!
DeleteI have trouble with yellow shades on me too, but this looks pretty good! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Traci! Yellows are really tricky! I don't own very many since I've found so few that are flattering on me.
DeleteThis is a nice yellow. I'm glad to hear it's got a good formula! DL's are so hard to get over here now, it's a shame as I do like her stuff.
