        Not good quality

        3 years ago
        I've owned quite a few Essie nail polishes, but wanted to try this one from the Expressie line as I haven't tried other fast-drying polishes. This polish was chipping within a day or two! I don't know if others would consider this normal for manicures done at home, but no other Essie polish I've ever used (and no others I have) chips anywhere near that quickly. Not sure about the Expressie line, or at least this colour.

        No, I do not recommend this product.

        Great Polish!

        4 years ago
        I just bought this polish and used it for the first time 4 days ago. I highly recommend it for a few reasons. It dried very quick! I don't have patience to wait for my nails to dry and than I always smudge them. I would say they fully dried in about 5 min. (At one minute I could start using my hands but the polish felt a little tacky.) The color is more purple than mauve but its still very pretty!

        Yes, I recommend this product.

        I am obsessed with this collection

        4 years ago
        I am a new mom and honestly the entire Expressie collection is amazing. I picked this color up at the grocery store the day of a wedding and I'm in love. This dried super quickly and went on very smooth. I'm able to complete a full manicure (Base Coat, Color and Top Coat) during my 6 month old's afternoon nap. I've already recommended to everyone that will listen.

        Too yellow

        a month ago
        Let’s start with- I LOVE expressie. It’s amazing. This color, however, isn’t a win. The yellow undertones are way too strong. It ends up feeling like a light yellow polish instead of an off-white.

        Hello there Ny340, we are so happy to hear that you're a fellow Expressie lover—there’s nothing like that quick-dry magic! We're so sorry to hear the color Daily Grind wasn't the 'win' you were hoping for. Achieving that perfect off-white can be tricky, and we totally get how those yellow undertones can change the whole vibe. This color should be a dirty eggshell white with yellow undertones. We've noted your feedback, 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
