Essie Nail Polish Review

I have always been a fan of Essie. The brand is expensive, yes - but you get so much value for your buck.

First of all, the lasting power is pure brilliance. My nails last up to a week and a half without chips.

The colours are of a pretty wide variety, you can get almost any colour under the sun and they are all equally amazing.

The bottle is big and sturdy and you can dip your brush into it with ease without praying that you won't tip it over.

It glides on seamlessly and after two coats your nails will look like they had just been done by a professional.

The coverage is really good, it dries quickly and it doesn't smell too bad like some polishes can.

Overall, this is a really good product. I love my Essie polishes.

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!

this is my first time trying essie and it is x100times better than dollar store ones that I usually use. i had to do 2 coats to get a nice even opaque color but they dry really fast so its no problem. What i like the most is the color ! it is a bluesh purple(lavendar? i dunno) color with really subtle shimmer in it. the color is not a vibrant neon kinda color which i like because i like neutral colors. this would be a very versatile color for summer !

This essie bikini so teeny nail polish is the cutest colour! It's a bright pastel colour that looks lovely on nails! Nothing like I've seen before. Usually light colours, for me need more than one coat but this one is so opaque on the first coat, leaving no streaks when it dries (it dries pretty quickly too!) the more you layer it the stronger the colour and shimmer comes out, it's a lovely shuttle shimmer, nothing too obnoxious :) for me it tends to stay on better with a base coat, it stays on well for a good amount of days without it, but when it begins to chip, the rests of the nail polish just peels off. Love this colour, it's definitely a favourite! Lastly, the packaging is great, simple in a cute, square glass bottle unlike most, with the name on the lid (very helpful when it's in your draw!) Would definitely love to try some more from their amazing colour range!

I absolutely love this nail polish! It's durable and the colour is so pretty with a little bit of shimmer (I got lots of compliments about it!). The polish glides on for a really smooth finish, and if you aren't that technical with a brush (like me) it comes off your skin very easily. Definitely recommend

It's very pigmented which means I don't need lots of layers. The brush is very nice as I only need one stoke to cover my nail. The Polish started chipping quite quickly however I didn't use any top coat on top which I normally always do. Love the shimmer in it, I would recommend but it's not amazing.

I love nail polish and this brand and colour is in my top of favs to use! You could almost get away with one coat if you were in a hurry but best to do 2 and always use a base coat!

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!
