    This is my go-to polish when I can't decide on a color. I also use it as a first coat under pale colors. I love it under Vanity Fair. Really love it that way. If I use it alone, I do 2 coats and it...

    This is such a pretty color, and Mademoiselle is such an apt name because this shade makes me feel prim and proper: think Audrey Hepburn and Kate Middleton. If you like the look of solar nails or a...

    I tend to prefer a natural/neutral nail for work and Essie Mademoiselle really fits that bill. It is impeccably polished, professional and sophisticated. One or two coats are all one needs. I...

    In the bottle it is a pink with a touch of peach that's still neutral. It's really quite pretty. You won't get bottle color on your nails though, so if you're expecting that you'll be disappointed....

    It's a very pretty neutral color that goes with almost everything and appropriate for any occasion. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. For me, the maximum wear length is only a day and a half...

    This is a really chich rosy nude. i love how it makes me look put together. It has decent durability (on its own it isn't as pretty as with a clear top coat).

    Essie's Mademoiselle belongs in the nail polish Hall of Fame! It couldn't be any better. I use many colored polishes (OPI, Sinful, Butter of London, etc.), but for a nude, glossy manicure this is...

    Let me sing my praises for this nail polish. I've tried ballet slippers from essie as well (the iconic one) and the streaks drove me insane. This polish however, goes on like a dream! No it will...

    Love, Love, Love! This works amazingly on my fair hands (with a pink undertone). It perfectly nails the "natural but way better" look. It is a translucent white with a hint of blush. It's very easy...

    A fan of this color -- it's perfect for when I want a very natural look. If I apply just one coat (over a base coat), it makes my nails look like they've been beautifully buffed. You almost can't...

    Don't be fooled by the opaque looking bottle; Mademoiselle is a very, very sheer polish, so simple and minimalist. Not at all like Ballet Slippers, which is milky white pink and could turn opaque...

    This is a lovely, elegant nude-ish shade indeed; as long as you have the time and patience for five coats. I did expect it to be sheer, but I was shocked at how sheer it really was. One coat,...

    I know I must have tried this years ago and hated the way it looked on me. But, since Essie has very inconsistent production, imo, the colors change a lot over the years. It looked so nice and...

    I'm probably in the minority on this polish. I do like it...it's long lasting and goes on smoothly and even. BUT it goes on looking like a cloudy clear. But then it dries....clear. I guess I am...
