Essence Colour and Go Nail Polish Review

I have discovered this brand recently and have been excited to try their products. I found this particular line of nail polish has a very liquidy consistency which made it a bit difficult to apply. Apart from that product layered up evenly and was super fast drying. End result looked clean and professional. I probably won't be repurchasing though as I like the "I Love Trends" (Same Essence brand) formula better.

This nail polish is such a cheap price point, I thought I would give them a go and I am really pleased with them. They have a wide variety of colours and I have noticed that different ones get added regularly. The nail polish is easy to apply and one coat can be good enough but two coats make it more opaque, it lasts just as long as other nail polishes that cost a lot more.

These are fun and come in a range of colours to suit everyone's taste. They apply easily and last fairly well. They come in cute little bottles and are at a great price. I buy these for my daughters and they love it.

I LOVE the Gel amd trend. This dies what it says as in good colour and drys quick, however unlike the gel like one it doesn't last. Chipped within 24 hours. Wish they would put the other formulas in this size bottle as cute a.d perfect size.

I purchased a few of these polishes as I had read good things about them online and they are super affordable.

The packaging is cute and I actually like that the bottle is a bit smaller than a standard polish as I like to wear a different colour each time I do my nails, so it takes forever for me to finish a bottle of polish anyhow. The brush is also nice a wide which makes applying these a dream! If only they were longer lasting. With all three of the shades I selected I had chips within 1-2 days which was really disappointing as I loved applying them, they dried quickly and the finished result was glossy and beautiful.

I would recommend these for a one off event or occasion where you want a beautiful, affordable polish, but, don't need it to last for an extended period. I won't be repurchasing any more of these polishes and wouldn't recommend them for daily wear as they just don't perform.

When I was up in Wellington I stopped by the Farmers in Cuba Street and managed to find a Essence stand! I was pretty excited to see it even if it was pretty well picked over at the time. I saw this nail polish in a creamy dark grey shade and couldn't just walk past it. It is called 53 rock my world! It was also super cheap so I had nothing to lose.

The packaging of this is super cute. The lid matches the colour inside which is nice, good if you were looking at your collection in a draw. The lid is also quite nicely shaped and easy to hold when you are doing your nails. The brush is amazing! And I don't say that lightly. It is flat and has a slight curve at the end. Makes it easy to get the whole nail in one swipe, I wish that other more expensive companies would have a brush like this.

This applied really nicely in two coats and looks really nice and shiny. I also found that it dried quite quickly which I was impressed with. The wear time with this was pretty good (especially for the price). The tips began to wear after 2 days and by 4days I started to get some chips. Without a top coat I think this is pretty impressive. Also by that stage I was wanting to change shades anyway.

Overall I am very impressed with this formulation and would be happy to purchase more if I found the right shades.
