Essie Nail Polish Review

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!

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.

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!

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

Always applies smoothly and great colour range I find this brand always has the on trend colours available can separate in the bottle if sat for awhile but nothing a good shake cant fix.

essie nail polish is the best of i have used , its so easy to apply the color is so intense you dont need to apply the 2nd time which saves the product ,very beautiful colour as well.

I love Essie nail polishes for quite a few reasons. They’re well priced, normally under $20. They have a great shade range and while they don’t bring new shades out like their main competitor the colours they have are vibrant and classic. Most importantly they wear really well. I find most polishes chip by the second day but used with a base coat and a couple of coats of the actual polish will still look good 5 days later (activity dependant of course). They apply easily and only need about 2 coats versus 3 with most other brands. I recently picked some up at the Chemist Warehouse for $9 and while they didn’t have a lot to choose from the colours they did have were pretty. Don’t be sold on the shade name alone as they can differ somewhat to the actual shade. I ordered Saltwater Happy and it seemed really blue online but it’s very purple on the nails. I would recommend using a top coat (from any brand) just to help keep the polish looking it’s best. I will be buying this brand again and again as I can’t stop looking at my nails when I have one of their gorgeous shades on.

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.

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

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.
