Essie Nail Polish Review

This colour is absolutely amazing! It is prettier out of the bottle then I could even imagine :) I wore this colour as my something blue on my toes for my wedding day and got so many compliments! It is a bit pricey but totally worth it - would buy it again in a heartbeat! I have heaps of other colours from this brand and they are all simply amazing!

I was so very amazed and excited to receive this nail polish as a RAOK from a gorgeous BR member! It's been on my wish list for a long time and having it arrive in the mail made me pirouette in joy!

Did it live up to my expectations? Yes!

This gorgeous nail polish is the epitome of ladylike elegance! The un-gluggy formula goes on like a dream. No 'ooop's moments here! As the description states, it is a sheer polish, and I ended up doing three coats to attain the depth of colour I prefer. Did it chip? A little, but only after three days of me going about the housework/toddler wrangling - and considering I didn't use a top coat I was very happy with that.

Summer, Autumn, Winter or Spring, this is a colour that can be worn anytime, anywhere - and it'll make you feel that much more sophisticated. Love love love!!

First of all id like to point out that the bottle is so cute!

This was my first try using the brand Essie. I absolutely love that the brush is a lot wider than any other brands i have used, it made it so much easier to get my nail painted in one stroke. Was very easy to use (I'm very novice at nail painting) made no mess at all.

I found that with a base and top coat it didn't chip very easily which is amazing for me because i am always super busy and get really annoyed with chipped nail polish.

This colour is so pretty! it is kind of pastel but with a gorgeous shimmer in it. It is now my absolute favourite !

I highly recommend this nail polish!

I really like this product! Thanks for selecting me to try BR!

The packaging is really nice, clean and simple. Features the name of the shade on the lid of it, which is handy for me because i shore all of my polishes facing up in a draw, so this way you just have to select your shade.

The brush is wonderful! so wide, I was able to paint my nails with 3 brushstrokes each! So easy! It does hold a lot of product so be sure to brush it along the neck of the bottle to remove some.

This nail polish wears well, currently as I am wearing this, I am up to the 4th day and the only wear/chipping I have is along the corners which you cannot actually see. Unless you are up really close. The color has stayed really vibrant!

I noticed as soon as i got this product it has tiny sparkles in it, however on your nails this is a little hard to notice.

All in all, this color of this nail polish is absolutely wonderful, which I intend on using again and again. The formula, bottle and brush are some of the best i have ever used. Definitely will be recommending this!

Thanks BR!

I cannot get enough of this colour, it's by far my favourite new nail polish and I can't stop looking at my nails! I've never used an Essie polish before, but had heard good things, and I can see why. I was a bit surprised when I first started using it, as the brush is quite wide, so you do have to be a bit careful not to have too much polish on the brush, but once I got used to it, it was great. The colour is just beautiful, a soft, feminine cornflower blue with the tiniest hint of a sparkle to it. Coverage is really good, two coats gave a a complete and lasting coverage which only started to chip about 5 days later, even without a top coat. It's the perfect colour for this time of year, when winter is ALMOST at an end, and I'm dreaming of warmer sunnier days. Looking at my beautiful nails makes me want to drink a cocktail in the sunshine! Cannot recommend highly enough.

ok ok, so I wanted this colour so, so very badly, I even considered selling my soul to be chosen for the trial, but that didn't work. I'd seen this polish talked about by sooo many beauty gurus, and I had to have it. But when I went to buy it, the price was around $25 for a very small looking bottle of nail polish. I don't care how much I wanted it, I really didn't want to spend that much on it. SO I went on the hunt for dupes but none of them were as great in colour. So I gave in, and decided to treat myself. Boy did I do a good job!

I love it! It's everything I wanted and more. I've never used and Essie polish before so it was very exciting. I can say that the quality, is probably better than OPI.

I love the packaging, it's very simple, very elegant, sitting on a dresser with a bunch of Essie nail polishes, I can imagine how beautiful it will look. The bottle looks small yes, but at closer look, I noticed it has the same amount of polish as any other nail polish in it. √√

I LOVE the brush. It's very thick and wide, without being too over the top. It's controllable and one stroke covers my entire nail, except my thumb which needs a stroke and a half. I can say that is amazing, especially when you are in a rush and need nails done in a flash. But in saying that, there is so much excess polish on the brush. I wiped away before painting the nail, but as you go to put it back in the bottle, more polish is trickling down from the top of the brush. So it's one you have to be careful with, although I can't say I had any difficulty with that. It also comes off the skin really easily, if you tend to paint your skin, like I do.

Two coats of this product is perfect and opaque. Bright, gorgeous pastel blue colour. And can I just say, any type of top coat you put over it, it will look just as good. I tried this with white glitter, gold glitter and black star glitter. Uhhh I can't get enough. It has so many looks, and is so versatile.

The only complaint I have about it, is how long it lasts. While I got to wear it for a good 6 days without any chipping, I notice that around the edges of the nail, the colour starts to slowly fade, so you're left with white tips.

Bottom line, would I use this again- Yes for colour, no for brand. I love everything that Essie has to offer, except the price. I would definitely buy Bikini so Teeny again though.

I own so many nail polishes and can never choose which to use. This colour is a easy pick for when I can't decide, it's a gorgeous colour that complements my skin tone and is perfect for summer. Application is easy. I would like this to have a bit more stay power. I have major issues with polishes that don't dry quickly and this did not disappoint my. It dried relatively quickly so I could get on with my day. May need to use a couple of layers, as with many polishes. I would use this again, and have used it many times. I love it!

I absolutely love this Essie Nailpolish! This light blue shade is my absolute favourite colour, and it took me a long time to find a nailpolish which reflected what I was looking for. I found other brands like OPI would often have more green or purple undertones, but this Essie polish is a lovely blue. It goes on smoothly and evenly like all Essie polishes. However I found that at least two coats are required to give the full colour as you see in the bottle. It has great durability and I found it stayed on for up to a week without peeling or chipping with a good base and top coats. I would definitely recommend this to others if you are as crazy about pastel blue as I am!

I love this colour so mch, it is a deep blue with a lovely metallic- like finish, it's a great summer colour that reminds me of the sea, it can also be worn in winter for a cheer up of the winter blues. I have received great compliments when I have worn this :).

This nail polish is lovely, the colour is fantastic and it goes on easily with a wider brush, and dries super quickly. You'll need two or three coats for a smooth even coverage though. It lasts well too, especially when using a base and top coat.
