Lovely too coat
9 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This top coat is so beautiful, the way it shines when the lights hit it. I love the iridescent colors, and it’s not just glitter. It is very resisting and since I am a mom and I’m always doing something with my hands. I look for nail products that are going to last and it’s not gonna be a waste of time since most of them chip after a couple of hours, this is definitely not the case. the Essie blushed metal is very long lasting. I like the versatility of this color since you can use it on top of a different color or by itself and it has the blush metal tone. I will definitely buy again. And of course Essie always makes really cool nail polish bottles.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] essie Blushed Metal is that perfect blend of soft glam and everyday elegance. This shimmery rose gold polish gives you a metallic glow-up with a smooth, high-shine finish that catches the light beautifully without being over the top. The formula glides on effortlessly—opaque in 2 coats, no streaks, no clumps. It dries fairly quick and wears well for several days without chipping (especially with a good top coat). Perfect for weddings, brunch dates, or just when you want your nails to look effortlessly put together. The blush undertone gives it a romantic feel, while the metallic sheen adds a modern edge. It flatters all skin tones and works great year-round.

Essie Blushed Metal
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s honestly such a pretty top coat. It adds this soft, shimmery glaze on top of whatever polish you already have—kind of like a rosy-metallic sheen that makes your nails look extra fancy without going full glitter.
I used it over a pale nude and it gave the nicest glow when the light hit it. Super easy to apply too—didn’t mess up my base color or go on streaky. I wouldn’t wear it alone since it’s meant to go on top of polish, but it really transforms a plain color into something way prettier.
Only thing is, it shows chips a little faster than regular polish, so I touched it up after a few days. But overall, it’s a fun little upgrade for your nails if you’re bored of your usual mani.

Obsessed
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m obsessed with the Essie Blushed Metal nail polish! The color is the perfect mix of soft pink with a metallic sheen—it’s feminine but still has that little pop that makes people notice. The formula goes on so smooth, and honestly, one coat looked amazing, but I did two for that extra salon-quality finish. It dried quickly (a lifesaver when you’re a busy mom and can’t sit still for long) and lasted way longer than I expected without chipping. Every time I catch a glimpse of my nails in the light, I get that “treat yourself” feeling all over again. Definitely my new go-to shade!

Not For Me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i have never been a big Essie fan because i feel as that the formula is too loose but they do have nice colors. i was pretty happy to have the chance to sample this product because i haven’t brought Essie nail polish in forever so it was nice to add to the collection. i picked Gossamer Garments and Blushed Metal and its a beautiful soft pink w/ a purpleish glittery top coat, great for spring/summer. i love the color, just not the brand. i do recommend people who loves Essie to get this color especially in this season. we’re going to see how long it last, will be back to update <3

Vibrant Shiny Long Lasting Color
11 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this Essie Gel Couture Metallic Glaze, a violet red electric charge with sparkling colors and pearls for brilliant effect. It hides all the little imperfections in nails with two coats and makes them shine. Coat the top edge of nails to stop any chipping. This shade makes nails look polished, clean, and flawless. The swirl stem brush helps with precise application and generous coverage for nails. The finished look is super shiny and definitely chip resistant. If well coated, it can last up to 2 weeks without any chipping. The quick drying formula is smooth and easy to apply. It can also be easily removed with any nail polish remover without causing any damage to nails. It's a perfect goto shade for work, date night, or any special events. Love it

Beautiful, long-lasting shimmer polish with a smoo
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely loved the Essie Blushed Metal shade! The color is gorgeous—soft, shimmery, and elegant without being too flashy. It goes on smoothly with the perfect gel-like texture, and the brush makes application super easy. It dries fairly quickly and has great staying power—no major chips for over a week, even without a top coat. The packaging is sleek, and the price is fair for the quality. It adds a classy metallic finish that looks stunning in any light!

Gives a beautiful metallic sparkle
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied two coats of the Blushed Metal for a gorgeous pinkish violet sparkle ✨ The sparkle is absolutely stunning. It went on smoothly and layered beautifully as the top coat and gave my nails a gel like finish without the UV. The polish drys quickly, doesn’t chip and leaves your nails looking effortlessly beautiful. There’s no scent to the nail polish and looks like the nail paint should last for a while. Looks great!

Super easy application with great finish
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first time trying this new 2 step system and formula for the gel finish. The application was so easy and dry time was surprisingly fast. The scent is the same as all other nail polishes. I like that the top coat helps leave a shinier and smoother finish when you’re done and the polish feels like it hardens more than regular nail polish. I am using the shade 49 Gossamer Garments and 02 Blushed Metal as my top coat.

that looks really pretty
11 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This polish nail looks really pretty in the light without being too flashy. It’s easy to apply and dries fast which makes it nice when you’re in a hurry. The shimmer is subtle but still noticeable, especially when it catches the light. It layers well over other colors too. I used it on its own and it gave my nails a clean and sparkly look. Perfect for adding a little shine without overdoing it.

Blushed metal top coat
11 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There’s something ethereal about “Blushed Metal” — it’s like rose gold had a soft-spoken sister. This polish wraps your nails in a warm, glowy sheen that catches the light in the most delicate way. It’s elegant but still playful — the kind of shade you wear when you want to feel effortlessly polished with a touch of magic. Smooth application, quick dry, and that soft shimmer? A dream.

Really beautiful topcoat
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really loved this topcoat because it truly made my nails feel “gel-like”. It added a nice sparkle over the top of a pink color. They actually dried fairly quickly as well. I feel like the topcoat sped up the dry time somehow. I do think it lasted a few days nicely but obviously not as long as a regular gel but that being said, it’s super easy to take off with acetone.

Cute and glittery
9 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This nail polish looks so cute, shiny and translucent. It was easy to apply. I used a layer of a pink nail polish under it to make it pop out more and it worked pretty well. It was pretty durable considering I do a lot of heavy tasks with my hands and it lasted a couple of weeks looking decent enough. It smells like usual nail polish which doesnt bother me.

So pretty
11 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This top coat works like magic! It is easy to apply and dries super fast. Only one coat is enough for that metallic gel finish look and I believe it works well with almost all colors and make your nail polish works like a completely new color. It doesn’t have too strong scent and it’s very long lasting. The packaging looks so cute like a hard candy to me.

Dainty
11 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful. I did one layer of Gossamar Garmet (which is the prettiest base pink) with one top coat of brushed metal. That's all. These looks beautiful, dainty, delicate. It had a every so slight smell, nothing crazy. I only have one coat of each and they haven't chipped in 3 days. Im eager to try brushed metal over black, it'll probably be beautiful.

Its okayyy
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s cheap, which is a plus, but the texture’s a bit weird — kind of watery and not the smoothest to apply. It smells like typical nail polish, so nothing surprising there. The color is very pretty, but it’s also super sheer, so you’ll definitely need a few coats to get it to show up properly. It comes in a small package.

The sparkles ✨
10 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shimmers are so pretty! There like purple, pink and silver sparkles. This is a top coat with effect which on its own looks great. The smell is a typical nail polish scent and it drys on average time 1-2 minutes. Without chipping the polish last about a week after that it will start peeling like in the second pic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My favorite nail polish brand. The black is almost perfect in one coat and a second coat makes it completely black. Peels a little easy so I do recommend buffing and using a top coat but I also use my hands often in manual labor.

Nice Sparkle for the Toes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this shade! It adds a pretty sparkle to the polish that’s underneath. Plus, this polish matches what I did on my fingers. I would only suggest that you wait for the other polish to dry before applying this to your nails.
