Essie Nail Polish Review

I got this in a set and i LOVE essie polishes they glide on, dry pretty quick and i find the brush isn't to thick so easy application with little polish over spill. Im not a huge fan on the colour but it does look really pretty on and i get compliments when i wear it so if you like to wear blue polish i would SO recommend this colour.

I have always loved Essie nail polish, have about 10 of them myself and this one is probably the most unique colour out of them all. I would prefer to wear it in winter as its not quite bright enough for me in summer but I still love it. It has an amazing shine/gloss and i found it very easy to apply. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a different but amazing colour !

This is a very cute colour but it isn't one of my favourite Essie colours. Applys well and it is a very natural tone.

I've got a few Essie polishes in my mountainous collection and this is probably one of my favourite soft pinks.

As the name suggests, this is a very, very soft pink that goes on well but you do need a couple of coats for the colour to really come out, otherwise it's a bit sheer and can go on a little streaky.

I love this colour, and I don't typically like pinks, but this is a perfect 'blush' pink that's so girlie I cannot possibly resist it!

Loved the colour! However im not a huge fan of essie. The brush is very thin in width and to achieve the colour you need at least 3 coats

Wow what a colour, I popped this on Saturday morning and its still vibrant 3 days on, no sign of chipping or flaking. The only draw back was the size of the brush for application, its wider than normal which for me with rather small nails found a bit tricky to get neatly on, but nothing a trusty cotton bud soaked in remover couldn't fix. Would be buying this again for sure, it is as stated a vacation in a bottle, as the blue has an almost sparkle to it which reminds me of ocean views with the sun bouncing off it.

This Nail Polish is a fantastic colour and I received many compliments on it. I haven't used a polish with a rounded brush before and it was great. It made it so much easier to apply and get a great look. I applied two coats and got a really nice finish. I will definitely be using this one again.

This colour is probably one of the most gorgeous nail polishes I own. It is a really pretty royal blue with a gorgeous shine.

The brush is quite wide and dense which I found really good and it made application quite a bit easier than other nail polishes I own.

Once I had applied only 1 coat it was almost a blueish-green colour, and I was feeling pretty disappointed that it looked nothing like the colour in the bottle, but with one more layer it was the exact colour as the bottle portrayed and super super vibrant! I was inlove. It then dried super fast too, and I had no problem with it smudging or getting indents or getting ruined on my nails like I generally do!

It lasts very well also, the first sign of tiny chips I noticed was after 3 days of wear, until then there was no chipping, peeling or anything. I was so surprised and it lasts better than any other higher end nail polish i've ever tried, such as OPI or Orly.

Overall I am extremely impressed with both the colour and the lasting power. I've never had a nail polish that I've loved so much and that has ticked all the boxes for me. I'll definitely be wearing this all the time!

I love essie polishes, and this colour is no exception. A very chic, light pink as the name 'ballet slippers' suggests. True, you do need to apply several coats to get a nice finish but it's oh-so-worth it! This colour is very suitable for women who like to wear nail polish to work, but have a job where deep or bright colours are frowned upon. Gives your nails a 'finished' appearance without looking like you tired too hard. A staple in my collection.

I was disappointed in this as I saw pics of it which appeared opaque and streak free. They must've used 10 layers! I've only achieved an opaque look with at least 3 coats but it's still looked streaky. I'm not a fan of its formula at all, very watery, streaky and sheer. Makes application a nightmare. This is the only Essie polish I've tried, I'm a little hesitant to buy any more based on this polish sadly.
