Gorgeous

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!

Tips: Using a base coat makes the colour stand out and prevent it from peeling when it begins to chip

New Favourite!

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

Easie

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.

nail freak!

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!

Tips: Base coat and 2 coats of colour and then a top coat for best results and lasting finish

Bikini So Teeny

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!

Aruba - AMAZING

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 :).

Tips: I usually do two or more coats so the colour is fully opaque :)

Bikini So Teeny

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.

Officially a Essie fan

Don't get me wrong, I still love OPI, But I think in terms of how long-lasting it is, price comparison to OPI and function I really do have a new favourite brand.

I've discovered I really prefer their nail brush or the nail polish in general? I tend to get more of a easy glide in layering my nail-polish because its not as thick. In terms of price I find it is also cheaper than some other brands when you get it at the make-up sale.

cute colour!

i love this colour but was a bit dissapointed with the application, it can be a little streaky but this can be corrected over a couple of layers, that being said, more layers = more chance of chipping, and i noticed this happening whenever I did more than two coats. the shape and width of the brush is awesome and very easy to use,would definitely try other colours from this brand

My favourite so far

The problem I have with most nail polishes is that it comes on either too thick or too thin. Essie nailpolishes are soo easy to use because the brush is so versatile and can be applied thick or thin. When i first put it on the brush covers most of the nail.

Tips: The only thing about this nail polish is that the coats come out quite thin. You need to put on around 3 coats for it to look good.
