    This went on well and the color is lovely. One coat was a little streaky and it evened out nicely with a slightly thicker second coat. I did not need three coats. If you were using thinner coats,...

    I love this colour!! It's a vampy deep purple with a silver shimmer. As a previous reviewer commented I love the fact that this doesn't just look black. You can tell it's a colour. It also doesn't...

    So I have a million of these 'almost black' colors at home, think OPI's Black Cherry Chutney, Royal Rajah Ruby, Lincoln Park After Dark etc. All of them turn out just black on my nails, no...

    I love this Deep Eggplant purple color. I get lots of complements each time I wear it. It is on the expensive side. It cost about $8 per bottle

    I love dark, almost black purple polishes such as OPI's Lincoln Park After Dark, Siberian Nights, Essie's Carry On, Little Brown Dress, but they were all starting to look the same, dull, leaning...

    I am a long time (6 years) user of Essie nail polish, because IMO Essie always carry the pretties colors. Recently, I think Essie has improved its quality interms of color concentration and...

    I purchased Damsel in a Dress as part of the six piece Essie Winter 2008 Collection, and it was one of the polishes I was most looking forward to trying, as I love dark, vampy shades. Damsel in a...

    This kind of reminds me of my OPI Black Cherry Chutney n/p.. very dark, vampy purple color (but I kind of like that one better, is has more reddish shimmer on). This one has more silvery...

    I was kind of let down by this polish. The color is rather pretty, a raisin-y purple burgundy with subtle shimmer. The application is really bad though. It was a streaky, uneven mess. I am a Chanel...

    This is a gorgeous deep purple with very fine silvery shimmer. It has great lasting power and applies smoothly two coats gives bottle colour.
