Obessed w/ this color
a year ago
I am obssessed with this color! I wish it would not have to be touched up so frequently, but I have hard working hands so I touch up every day. Dries quickly and always makes me feel like I am complete!

great color payoff

I was already a big fan of the brand as I have a number of these nail polishes already. I really did like this color though, and it was unlike any other colors that I had. Goes really well with a light pink.

This polish works great, it spreads easy with the brush and dries quickly. These colors are absolutely beautiful! They are shiny and rich. They didn’t seem to peel or chip as quickly either

smooth with the lasting power of regular nail polish. The color is growing on me and it happened to match part of the pattern on my skirt.

Essie always puts out great products. These polishes are no exception! Even with just one coat you're able to get a solid color that doesn't chip easily and goes on smoothly.

LOVE THE COLOR
3 years ago
Love the colors of this nail polish! They have a nice matte finish on my nails and the nail polish lasts! I always struggle with my nail polish quickly coming off because of my terrible nail biting and picking habit but this actually held a decent amount of time! I will definitely be buying more colors!!
yes, I recommend this product.

Perfect blue!!
3 years ago
Wow! This Essie "to me from me" is the PERFECT shade of blue for fall and winter, but the other seasons as well! I love the deep tone of it. The formula is excellent and was easy to do a quick polish that has lasted me 2 weeks! If you're looking for your perfect shade, look no further!

Essie is amazing
3 years ago
I absolutely love love love Essie nail polishes I just typically never buy them for myself because they are a little expensive. The colors out this year are stunning especially what I got in this pack. They are perfect for the fall season. They can go with any fall outfit. They are easy to use, not clumpy, and last awhile without chipping.

Lasting color
3 years ago
I really enjoy this color, it is shiny and glossy but not sparkly. It looks great against my skin tone and it has lasted a few days so far which is impressive for how hard I work with my hands daily. I would recommend this brand and buy this color again.

Beautiful, calming blue.
3 years ago
The Essie to me from me is such a pretty shade of a deep, dark blue. It has a nice, glossy shine when finished. It has a great brush that’s flawless and easy strokes that makes it look very even and streak-free. Two coats of the polish is perfect!
Great that it’s a vegan-formula with out animal derived ingredients.
Beautiful color for many occasions and can take in your travel bag.

Such a perfect, deep color for Fall and Winter. I was pleasantly surprised by the pigmentation after only one coat, I did a total of two coats and it looks like I did 3-4. Highly recommend this
