Hello Heleen. Thank you for sharing your comments and pic for the color 'odd squad'. We are sorry to hear that this product did not leave you with the results you were hoping for. Gray is probably the one of the least expected results we would expect from this rich coffee brown with red undertones.

Great every day neutral!

I looove this shade of brown! I am big on the neutrals right now and this shade gives a great gloss without attracting too much attention. The brush provides full coverage in one swipe and the formula dries fast and is very pigmented. Good amount of wear before chipping as well!

Essie is a great brand for polish. It’s easy to use, dries fast, needs only a few layers, and lasts long. The brush is easy to use and bends to the shape of the nail. I highly recommend this polish and color.

Nice brush

The Essie Odd Squad is a brown that can easily be mixed with any other color. I applied glitter on every other nail to change up the style. The nail polish has a nice shine.

Nice polish

This polish was a very dark chocolate brown, it almost looked black. Shine was good as well. Applied like any other normal polish and was easy to take off. It did chip throughout the week. Did not like this color as much.

Prettiest Nude Polish I’ve Ever Used
2 years ago
This polish is some of the prettiest polish I have ever used, it’s shiny and has probably one of the fastest dry times I’ve ever seen in a polish. I absolutely recommend this polish, it goes on smooth and you only need about a single coat to get full coverage.
