Gorgeous nail lacquer
3 years ago
I was gifted the pencil me in essie nail lacquer by obsessies to test and review, and absolutely loved it.
The nail lacquer was easy to apply, dried really quick and the colour looked gorgeous. I only applied 2 coats but could have very easily got away will only applying 1 coat.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Glides on, sheer coverage
29 days ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this is not full coverage like a normal polish. It is sheer and buildable and goes on very easily. I love the subtle pink color (it’s my favorite color). I do think it looks a little unfinished if you only do 1 coat, so I do 3 with a clear coat on top. It does not have a strong odor, and it seems to have a normal dry time. It lasts a week with a top coat before needing to be redone. I think this is a great alternative to normal or gel polish. I love that you can take it off with normal nail polish remover and you do not have to soak them off. It makes it extremely easy to apply and recoat. It is also very easy to apply. I did receive this product in exchange for my review.

Not a fan of thick formula...
7 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's that kind of nail polish that goes on messy. No matter how hard you try. It's kind of goopy thick but it only takes two coats to get completely opaque. The redeeming quality is that after you put it on your nails and the polish that got on your skin wears away, your nail looks pretty good then. It dries evenly and it dries fairly fast it's just not my preferred formula. It's the messy part that really bothers me. Maybe if you're really really really good and nail polish you might get it to work without making a mess but if you're not then you're just going to have to deal with that and getting it off your skin after you apply your polish.

HI AmandaH, thank you for sharing such a detailed and honest review. We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the fast drying time and the great opaque coverage after just two coats! However, we’re truly sorry to hear that the formula felt a bit goopy and made for a messy application. This formula should glide on easily, it sounds like your bottle of color may not be up to our usual standards. However, your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we'll be sharing these comments with our product team to help us improve the experience for everyone.

Why change did Essie change Sugar Daddy color?
2 years ago
I’m a professional manicurist for over 25 years and one of the polishes I use the most is the “original version” of Sugar Daddy. It’s been a main staple color in my kit because its sheer peachy pink looked amazing against all skin tones and great on camera for the commercial production shoots I work on.
You can imagine my surprise and disappointment when I discovered a new Sugar Daddy color at my beauty supply. I thought it was a mistake in the dye lot so I went to other stores looking for the original. No luck.
I decided to try this new version and it does not compare to the original.
Please bring back the original Sugar Daddy color.

Hello Ocurlygirl! We’re sorry to hear the color 'sugar daddy' is no longer the color you were expecting. This color should be a sweet pink with a sheer finish, perfect for french manicures. The production of our iconic shades has also advanced over the years – higher quality standards, pure color pigments, and new innovative ingredients allow for a better, more consistent product, but also can result in some color variation from the past.

beautiful, sweet color!
12 years ago
I'm normally one to stick to the classic red, or dark maroon colors. I love a darker shade on my nails as I have fair skin and lighter colors can tend to wash out and not pop as much. But, this Spring I wanted something different so I thought I'd try out this color and I LOVED it! I bought a bottle for myself the very next day and wear it all of the time. It's a color that has some brightness and liveliness and still pops against my fair skin but isn't too in your face which is great! Perfect color for Spring and Summer...and for those days in Fall and Winter when you need a bright pick me up :) DEFINITELY try out this color for your next mani.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Love It!
10 years ago
I have 128 Essie's in my collection, and I've had this one for a while now. It has a slightly sheer formula but it is not hard to apply at all. In fact, the sheerness adds dimension to the polish. I think that 3 thin coats or 2 thick ones cover the nail completely, smoothly, evenly. It is a perfect polish for nail art because it could be sheer or opaque depending on how you layer it. However, I personally think it looks best on its own. This is definitely one of my favorites from Essie and one of my all-time favorite polishes. A nail artist (@pictureperfectpolishblog) on Instagram did some gorgeous nail art with it that I enclosed below.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Streak Free. It's really stream free
8 years ago
I bought this yesterday and gave myself a manicure last night. It is the sheerest, prettiest pink color. This is like my own natural nails only better. I've heard that before, but in this case it's true. I used 3 coats over a base coat and then used a top coat. My nails look healthy, groomed, and beautiful. It really is streak free and not too milky. Will I buy again? Yes.
I am not the best at home manicures, but my nails look as good as if they were done in a salon. The polish dried fast and is streak free. Most nude polishes I've tried require 3 coats to hide the streaks, and then they look too milky/opaque. Sugar Daddy is a miracle in a bottle.
Yes, I recommend this product.
