Color not as pictured

In sorry to say I'm disappointed in the color. Looking at the product photos it's very deceiving from what you actually get. The color in the models looks very warm and like a shade that would work on anyone. The color is actually got looks like a milky pink extra milk. Its a fine color just doesn't meet expectations is feel deceived.

Great!

I got this about 2 months ago, and I LOVE it. It’s such a pretty shade, and I would recommend it if you have concerns about high-quality nail polish, and if you love a good light pink mani, I would highly suggest this product.

Disappointed
3 years ago
This is THE perfect shade of pink. It’s the only pink nail polish that I purchase but it sucks. The consistency gets thick after a few uses. Idk if it starts to dry up and go bad quickly but it becomes thick and it doesn’t dry completely. Also not opaque enough. I have to do a base coat and four coats of color to achieve like 98% opacity. Wishing that this was a gel color because I love it and want to keep wearing it. 😭

Hi NaiS. We want to understand what happened just as much as you do. Even after opening, our nail colors, stored out of sunlight and at normal room temps, should keep the same quality for about 2 years. And your color should look right by the second coat. Using too many coats of color can result in chipping. For a more opaque pink, take a look at the color ‘free to roam’. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

Looks like an accident. It barely shows up. Why would anyone dip their nails in milk?

Hi there Alittlenutmeg! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the color “muchi muchi”. We describe this shade as a creamy pale pink with a kiss of mauve. The results should be a very pale pink.

Hi there Malak! We want to understand what happened just as much as you do...The shade muchi, muchi should be a creamy pale pink. By the second coat the color should be perfect and should dry in the same time as any normal nail enamel. Please return your polish to the place of purchase for a refund or replacement.

Very pretty color but

I bought this and another color 2 weeks ago and this particular bottle is extremely runny, streaky and even after it dries which unfortunately takes forever I couldn't even wash my hands without the color chipping. I love essie so much but this color wasn't great.

Hi there! We are sorry to hear you did not have the best experience with this shade of ours. To help your manicure last longer try using one of our base coats to improve adhesion and our no chips ahead top coat. Make sure you use two coats of polish and wait 30 to 60 seconds before each application.
