Works fine for an event but not long wear

Beautiful colour range and looks good on. Easy application. I have found that it chips very quickly though so only wear for an event not for a long time.

Tips: Perhaps try with a strong top coat for better results

Great!

I'm not a massive polish user, mainly because I get frustrated with the chipped look, even after doing everything to avoid it. This polish applies beautifully and stays on longer than many others. Nice colour selection too.

Tips: Apply a couple of coats, and a top coat to preserve if your hands are getting a workout ( gardening etc)

Essie Nail Polish Review!!

Love is an underestimation of how much I love this nail polish! Perfect consistency, such a pretty colour range from neutral to bright I love every single colour! May come pricey, may come cheap but perfect for its amazing quality!

Hands down the best nail polish

I have used a lot of nail polishes for years and always chip after a day or so. This polish dries fast and lasts a couple of days!! Glossy shine, large range, fast drying, I prefer it to all those 2 step hybrids. I am keen to try the Essie ones of those. I have quite a few Essie colours since they became a bit more affordable.

Tips: I always file my nails and wipe them with isopropyl alcohol before painting. I also always use base coat, 2x (sometimes 3) colour coats and a top coat. Occasionally, I push back my cuticles for the best results. Also, apply cuticle oil daily - this care helps polish stay on longer in the long run

So good

These polishes are great, Easy application. The range of colours is huge and I swear they're always expanding. You will have better results with a top and base coat

Longlasting

Fun range of colours at a good price. This is sych a good quality product, and compares well to competitors such as OPI. Darker shades chip more easily, so maybe use minimum of 2 coats and consider a clear top coat.

Favourite Nail Brand

One of my favourite nail polish brands! It is the longest lasting polish I own, that has a good thickness. You don't have to pile on heaps of coats just for the colour to be vivid. They provide a beautiful range of colours at a reasonable price.

Tips: For longer lasting I would do 2 coats once the first one has dried. Lighter colours don't last as long as the darker colours (:

One of my Top Nail Polish Brands

This was my first Essie Nail Polish to try, and I love it, and ever since I bought a few more after. Essie Nail Polish is one of the top brands for Nail Polishes for me! They come at a great price point and they are always affordable, and I love the bottles they are super cute and fancy looking.

If you are planning to buy this to do at home French Nails, I wouldn't personally recommend this for French Nail Polish style, but I would recommend it as a full nail colour! It's beautiful and super easy to apply it on, and the actual nail polish liquid lasts so many years and doesn't go off at all and doesn't start looking weird. it's very much worth giving Essie Nail Polish a go.

My favourite brand of polish

I love Essie polish! The formula is creamy, it's very easy to apply and it doesn't chip easily, especially if you put on a base and top coat. It can be a week before I see any signs of wear. I prefer the shade range of Essie over their main competitor, even though the range available here is smaller. I also love the the brush applicator, I find it much easier to apply using Essie's brush shape. I usually apply two to three coats of a colour. These polishes also dry pretty quick which means I can get on with my day. I usually wait for a sale to purchase some, as there can be some really good offers on. Chemist Warehouse often has a really good discount on Essie, and Farmers generally has 'buy 2 get 1 free' or a free gift with purchase. I would highly recommend this brand of nail polish!

Pretty good!

I loved the bright colour i received its one if my fave colours! The shape of the bottle was really different compared to other brands so i really liked it. This was the first time i have ever tried the essie brand and i would have to say that for the price you pay its really good but if you want it to last long you definitely need 2 coats but thats all and if you have a top coat it definitely makes it last a lot longer and makes it take longer to chip! Would really like to see more colours and i would like to see essie being sold in more places aswell.

Tips: Do at least 2 coats and definitely use a top coat.
