My favourite Nail Polish

Essie is my favourite brand of nail polish and I also love this colour.

I prefer Essie nail polishes over OPI, China glaze etc as I feel Essie has the best formula. Its not too think so it goes on easy and it dries much faster than OPI. So I really enjoy essie polishes.

This particular colour is very nice. I bought it at a makeup sale. Its goes well with my tan skin, infact I think i'll suit any skin tone. Just a bit sheer so I do need to apply two to three coats for full opacity.

Pretty nails

I love painting my nails and Essie is one of my favourite nail polish brands. They display a lot of pretty colours to choose from and none disappoint. If you like pastel coloured nail polishes check out Essie because they have a great range of pastel coloured nail polishes. It's very easy to apply as it has a good consistency and it dries pretty quickly. I find that it lasts ages on my nails without chipping and I only need to apply two coats to get the full colour of the nail polish.

Tips: Use a base coat to protect your natural nails and a top coat to make the polish last longer.

Dress To Kilt

Despite being a polish fan, I only recently purchased my first Essie Nail Polish during Farmers Beauty Week after being swayed by the triple points. I have it in the very trendy colour 'Dress to Kilt', a dark red.

Essie's packaging is simple and chic, the rectangular bottle is fantastic for storage and display, showcasing the polish colour perfectly without any distraction from fussy packaging.

The brush is probably the best out of any polish I have tried, including my beloved OPI. The shape seems squarer and has a good width allowing it to glide across the nail effortlessly, covering the surface in a couple of strokes.

The formula is a nice consistency, a little thinner than some but not too runny so that one coat of Dress To Kilt creates an opaque finish. It also dries very quickly which means if you do want to pop on a second layer, which other shades may need, it will be very easy to do without waiting about for ages.

I'm really happy with my purchase and the only thing that would put me off purchasing more Essie polishes is the price, they're a little more than some polishes but I've seen Farmers sometimes has specials with them so I'll keep an eye out!

One of the best

I have two Essie nail polishes which I purchased recently from a sale. They are "using my maiden name" (a lavender shade), and "ruffles and feathers" (an amazing bright green).

They have quickly become my favourite nail polishes! They apply really easily and streak-free, the brush is a good medium size, it dries reasonably fast, and I find two coats is plenty.

I love how long it lasts on my nails without chipping, a good 3-4 days which is amazing for me personally as I have quite a physical job and my hands get put through a lot of stress.

The bottles are really cute and look great in my collection. Highly recommended!

Nice for everyday

I like nail polish in all colours. The Essie Ballet Slippers is a nail polish for days when you don't want to have nails that scream. It is a nice almost natural look perfectly suitable for work. It is very easy to apply because the nail polish is very fluid. Unfortunately the polish has to be applied 2 times to completely cover the nail.

great choice of shades

love their color range and that you can get these on sale at some online stores (however color choices are limited then). I only have two shades, watermelon and midnight cami (which is a darker shade of navy blue) and i love both!

Spa it up

I first come across Essie polishes in a spa. They had a great range of colours and I brought a couple. I found they go on really easily don't need to apply to many coats to get decent coverage either. Love love love
