e.l.f. Nail Polish in Gum Pink

Oh deary me, my dear followers... one is not amused. A few weeks ago, you may remember that I made an order with e.l.f.. They finally had the polish I wanted back in stock so I ordered it. When it arrived I was disappointed. The polish looked nothing like the colour on the website. Here's the photo to prove it!

*Taken in natural light*

Has this happened to anybody else? I really don't like the colour. I swatched it on one nail and it wasn't for me. So if anyone wants it...

    Oh my...that is terrible! I've heard the swatches on the ELF website are a bit questionable...xxx

    That's awful. If it had been the colour from the website I would have loved that, but it looks nothing like it! Did you complain? x

    Claire - No I didn't. I would have if it was expensive but it only cost me £1.50 so didn't really see the point x

    That's mad! In youtube videos I've seen it looks like the polish on the website. I hate it when that happens - website and catalog images are always the worst. I've been disappointed a fair few times. x

    that is so weird. I have the Gum Pink too, from the UK website and mine is not the same as the pic you have, but somewhere between the pic and your one, it is more of a barbie pink, bright and sugary..........how odd. I have to say I am not impressed with the elf nail polishes at all, they just seem a bit thin to me. I bought 5 of them, they are okay but I would not get any more. Though the darker shades are okay to use for Konads, so all is not lost lol

    How strange! I won't be getting any more. I prefer to browse the high street I think! At least you can use yours :) xx

    I think they labelled it wrong, it looks more like the fire coral to me........ mine is a definite sugar pink, it still rubbish though even when they get it right LOL

    I really don't think they sent you the right one. I have the "Gum Pink" and it is just like the website.
    Get a hold of them and they will correct it. They have the best customer service ever.
    Let them know and then let us know. :)

    It says it is Gum Pink though. I don't think it's their error, it's my disappointment haha :)
