first impression is good

5 years ago

I only tried swiping this quickly onto one nail. First impression is that it's a one-coat kind of polish, like a lot of Essie's darker or more pigmented shades - goes on smooth and dark and opaque, no need for more coats. It reminds me a lot of Pool Side Service, just a touch darker. Like someone mixed a little Off Tropic into a bottle of Pool Side Service. As these are two of my favorite year-round shades, I think I'm going to like In Plane View quite a lot!
