Lasts forever!
5 years ago
I started using this nail polish about six months ago. How I have been able to keep my manicure fresh looking is in the application. I apply a clear base coat. After it has dried for a couple hours I followed by a thin first coat of color. I allow about 4-6 hours for first color coat to dry before applying the second coat of color. Allow second coat of color several hours to dry before finishing with clear top coat. Remember to cover nail tips with all coats as well as underneath the nail when applying clear base and top coats. Using this application method my nail job lasts at least two weeks before I redo it.

Great Color, Poor Quality
6 years ago
After purchasing this bottle of GOREGEOUS polish from a such a reputable brand, I was so excited to apply. The color is phenomenal, however the next day I washed dishes and my nails were ruined. Essie colors that I purchased even back 6 years ago I remember lasting so much longer. Has the formula changed? Highly upset that I have to re-paint every day - don't want to quit since the color is stunning, and I'm stuck in quarantine (for a good reason, I promise) so I can't go out again to get a new brand.

Essie is one my favorite nail products. It is worth the price. It carries wide range of colors from bold red to soft naturals. I have been using Essie and i five different nail colors. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

This colour is perfect for an all-year-round colour. Essie polishes last me really well and i just buy them from Superdrug. The colour is really nice and i prefer to use Essie than other high street brands. Easy to apply and Im a big fan, would buy again

Love love LOVE my Essie nail polishes. I have tons of shades and they are always so great and last a long time. They can be pricey however I think they are definitely worth the cost. I’ve often been able to find a coupon to use which makes it easier to purchase.

LOVE THIS COLOR & THIS POLISH! So pretty with a wonderful finish. The color has great wear and lasts for a while without chipping ( at least it did for me) This polish is a bit on the pricier side, but it is so beautiful & worth the price tag for sure!

Beautiful natural color. Looks amazing on hands and/or toes. With proper care the color lasts for a decent amount of time, looking nice for longer than just the first few days.

I really love this color. It’s a great neutral pinky red. Essie never disappoints with their formula and this is no exception. It’s a great salon quality product for the drug store price. I will be purchasing again!

A new classic and my personal favorite
9 years ago
I always get compliments on this color! I discovered it in the salon when I needed to wear a shade of pink for a job interview and this is the perfect "mature and conservative" color I can wear while still feeling like myself! I tend to go for bold and brights like lime, navy, gold, or glitter. I'm so happy it was added to the line and I can use it myself. Great formula and full, creme coverage with 2 coats, easy for someone who is bad at paint their own nails (me). I know it's was originally a wedding color but it's versatile- goes with almost any outfit, style, occasion or time of day. It's the perfect shade, especially if you have had trouble finding something you like in traditional reds and pinks.

Sassy shade
9 years ago
Mrs. Always Right is one of the best Essie colors I’ve ever seen. It’s a complex deep pink that verges on the plum. Wearing it with the newest version of Essie Top Coat (in white bottle) extends its life and glossy luster. Plus, I love its sassy name! It’s anything but a “wimpy" shade.

Not your average neutral!
9 years ago
This color intrigued me as soon as it came out in the Bridal collection. I knew it would either be a color I adored or hated. I'm so glad I took a chance and got it, because it is absolutely stunning. It reminds me a bit of "Angora Cardi," but it is much, much more flattering on my pale skin tone. It is a mauve that is both pretty and edgy at the same time. The formula was also great! Two coats, and you're good to go. This color could go with any outfit and would be appropriate for any occasion, from work to a night out. I highly recommend it!
