Waste of Money and Time

2 months ago
This polish is awful. It chipped after two days. Then, I tried to fill in the chipped areas, and those areas chipped again. I used Essie's bottom and top coats, and it did not make a difference. Do not waste your time or money!

Oh no! We are so sorry to hear that your manicure didn't live up to the Essie standard! Chipping after only two days is definitely not the experience we want you to have, This hot pink color is part of our Expressie Quick Dry collection. Unlike a traditional nail enamel, these fast drying colors adhere better applied to bare nails with no base coat. 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

Love this color. It kind of reminds me of the hot Barbie pink car that used to be sold back in the day. The only problem is that this nail polish tends to chip after four days

Such a pretty pink!

4 years ago
If you’re anything like me, you prefer to do your nails at home rather than going to a salon. While I like getting my nails done by somebody else it’s the idea of spending so much on my nails that gets to me. I have been using the Essie trick clique nail polish for the last couple of weeks and it has quickly become my favorite color. It’s Christmas time, I know, but I can’t help but wear this Barbie pink nail polish. I have very thin brittle nails which normally make my nail polish chip quickly at the ends but these have lasted me 3 to 4 days which is a long time for me. The nail polish dries quickly and touchups are a breeze. It doesn’t get sticky too quickly but it does dry faster than other polishes. You do have to be cautious when pulling the brush out of the bottle and be sure to wipe off any excess amounts back into the bottle to allow for a thin application. It also has a high gloss finish so I didn’t have to apply a topcoat. I’ve been carrying this bottle on me and will continue to use it likely into the end of winter and again in the spring and summer until it’s done :)

yes, I recommend this product.

This polish is actually really quick drying. Perfect for moms with little patience and have many things to do around the house. It lasts a decent few days until chipping shows. Good for a quick nail polish session.

I received this about 2 weeks Ago. I opened and used immediately. So far the color hasn’t chipped at all! It painted on so smoothly and dried pretty quick as well. The 3 colors I received are so vibrant and beautiful. This would make a great gift! 10/10 recommend

Really cute! Fast drying!

4 years ago
It definitely dries at most in a minute! Mine dried in about 40 seconds. It’s easy to apply to your nails. The color is pigmented that you only need to put one coat really. The color is exactly like the picture. If you put two coats then the color becomes a brighter pink. The bottle is the typical nail polish bottle. I liked this one, I’m considering buying the other colors in the collection. I love how fast it dries.

Impressed with Expressie

4 years ago
was taken back by how pigmented the new expressie polish is! I usually have the use 4+ coats to get the color to show up well but with so many coats it never dries and the texture gets all weird. With these the color shows up in ONE COAT! the angled brush makes painting your own nails much easier. And they dry super fast!!! They are my new favorite!!! Trick clique is a gorgeous hot pink color!

yes, I recommend this product.

Great quality!

I love this nail polish! The colors have great pigmentation so you don’t have to do multiple coats even in the lighter colors. It dries quickly and the brush applies a smooth even coat. Left on Shred 354 is my favorite color. It’s a little brighter than navy but not royal. Sk8 with destiny 356 was my daughters preference. It’s more of a periwinkle. Very cute and feminine.

yes, I recommend this product.
