Chipped

5 years ago

Love the range of colours essie has on offer, but I was majorly disappointed a short few hours after painting my nails, I prepped my nails properly and applied a base coat first, I then began to apply the essie varnish, it seems thinner and.more.watery than most varnishes I use, and the brush isn't anything special. So initially I was disappointed. Then a short lived admiration for the beautiful colour of my newly painted nails as after a short time of normal hand wear and tear they started to chip. I've used other brands, cheaper brands that have lasted much longer than this. Disappointed. The only positive was the lovely colour.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Beautiful

5 years ago

Love essie product and this was no exception! The colour was amazing exactly what I wanted, the colour goes on brilliantly leaving a smooth finish. It lasted well I have only just removed it after 6 days with no chips or scuffs. Nail underneath feels healthy and strong which can be a problem with some nail varnishes after removing. Would definitely recommend.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Plum plum plum

5 years ago

Beautiful , dark and creamy purple plum colour nail varnish easy to apply with brush but a bit watery liquid nail varnish but doesn't need to many coats you could probably get away with just two coats I did three myself but it's possible for less and very nice on.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Again a really lovely polish. It needed a few coats to get the full affect but overall I am very pleased with it :) It was also easy to remove and didn't stain the nail. I really would recommend this polish to my friends!

Nail polish with a fall and winter vibes

5 years ago

I absolutely adore this nail polish! This color suits really nice on nails, either short or long, and can be worn for any occasion, but I think it would be especially nice to wear in the fall and winter months. The plum color gives me a warm and appealing look while also being elegant and classy. The brush applicator makes it easy to use and the formula is perfect. It didn't take long to dry after application, and it lasted really well. This may be one of the best I've ever had. I've found a new favorite!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Lovely colour

5 years ago

I really love this nail varnish. The colour is slightly darker when applied but I prefer it. It goes on really well and looks really professional. I did two coats which covered nicely but did chip so I tried with three coats and it's lasted a few days with only minor chipping. It gives a really smooth coating with out clumping and it dries really quickly, which is a big plus when you have minimal time or your just impatient like me.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Love Essie

5 years ago

I absolute love Essie nail polish. They ever disappoint me - the quality of the polish is amazing and if I'm not doing anything too strenuous, they last for at least a week without chipping. I would recommend 1 base coat, 1 colour coat, and a top coat. Leave to dry properly, and you're sorted. Lovely plum colour too!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Really nice colour

5 years ago

Super easy to apply has a good sized brush so only takes a couple of strokes to cover a nail. Be careful not to overload the brush as it can run and make a bit of a mess. Great colour although takes a couple of coats to get a full finish. Hard wearing if you use a top coat otherwise expect chips to occur.

Yes, I recommend this product.
