I don't have a lot of polishes in this type of colour as pastel shades are not really me, unless they fall into the nude category and I think this one does.
I looked through my collection and the nearest polishes are Avon Luxe Lavender which I adore, but never wear on its own: this is a bit pinker than Guinevere and quite a bit brighter in tone. Then there is Leighton Denny Leading Lilac, which I definitely include in my neutrals as it is a dusky lilac, and that is a touch redder and darker than Guinevere. I did do a quick comparison - the colours are a bit too blue but it does show they are all different. I added Ciate BonBon too, although that's even more pink - they do make a pretty ombre!
Anyway, Guinevere is the perfect shade of lilac, muted enough to be very wearable, and to allow it into my neutral collection. It is a touch less blue than my pictures, very frustrated that I can't quite get the colours right. It painted on nicely, dried well and pictures are taken with top coat.
I shouldn't have waited so long to buy this one, it has been on my wishlist for a while. It fits very nicely into my collection and I love it.
