Catrice Zensibility Nail Polish - Sheer Silence | Opaque Pale Pink!

Today, I am going to show you an opaque pale pink nail polish from the recent Catrice Zensibility limited edition. Opaque pale pink nail polishes are hard to come by, so this post is for you if you are looking for one.

I purchased this beauty almost 2 weeks ago (!), so basically they put it on display a lot earlier than it was expected. (In Hungary, it is supposed to be available from the middle of May). The entire Zensibility collection is stunning, but unfortunately I could only afford one single item from the entire collection. I hope I will be able to buy more things next month because I just looove the eye palette.

The nail polishes of the collection are rather large, you get 15ml of product instead of the usual 10ml, and it is slightly more expensive as well (around 1100 HUF).

Don't let the shade name fool you, it is not a sheer nail polish.

The cap of the Zensibility nail polishes is very long, it reminds me of the Louboutin nail polishes. Since the Zensibility collection is Asian themed, I think that the nail polish bottle was supposed to look like the calligraphy ink bottles. Nobody seems to mention that in reviews, so I do now beause I love the idea.

Unique calligraphy pen-like cap:

The cap comes apart, which was quite the surprise for me. The long brush is easy to manage, and the brush is nice and wide, ensuring a simple application. The only downside of the cap is that it doesn't close entirely, so the polish inside is quite thick. I had to use nail polish thinner to make it apply smoothly. 

By the way, don't use nail polish remover to thin out nail polishes! Never ever do that. You can buy legit thinners for very cheap, you don't want to mess up your polishes with remover.

Opacity and tone:

Sheer Silence is an opaque pale pink nail polish with just a teeny bit of peach tone to it, making it perfect for people with warm skintones who are looking for pale pinks. Don't get me wrong, it would still work on any skintone, but sometimes really cool pinks can look odd on warm skin. 

There is a straight up peach shade in the collection (called Zensible Rose), so this one is dominantly pink compared to its peach sister. It covers in 2 easy coats (once you thin it out). Bet it would be a one-coater if used without nail polish thinner.

Pale pink nail polish comparison:

Since I've been on a hunt for 2-coater pale pink nail polishes myself, I decided to compare my tiny collection of opaque pale pinks. Catrice Sheer Silence is the slightly peach-toned pale pink in the group.

Another new opaque pale pink is Happy Nails by Essence, this one is considerably cooler toned, with lavender tones to it. OPI Don't Bossa Nova Me Around is a dusty pale pink with grey tones (also, it's my favourite OPI nail polish), while OPI My Very First Knockwurst is a muted pale pink with less grey tones compared to DBNMA.

All of them are fully opaque in 2 coats.

Have you purchased anything from the Zensibility collection? Do you like pale pink nail polishes? 

You know that I am not the biggest fan of pink, but I firmly think that a pale pink nail polish is a basic item in any nail polish stash.
