I LOVE this color! It's a great neutral.I wouldn't call it "nude", because it has a sort of grey-tan hue. I love wearing it to work and it's even prettier with a matte top-coat. It only takes me...

This is the ugliest color imaginable, at least on me. The shade is a cement-colored disaster. if you are fair-medium with neutral-warm undertones, stay away.

No. Just...no. Mannequin hands is pretty accurate...not current ones but the mannequins they used to make in the old days, the ones that were that ashy, grey, cement color. This actually looked...

I bought this polish primarily because I love the name, and I kept hearing great things about it. I don't own many nudes because I often opt for bright, showy colours, but I was looking for the...

I loved this neutral color because I have been trying to stop bite my nails and this color doesn't draw too much attention to my nails. Plus it goes with everything I wear and I love neutral nail...

I enjoy this shade a lot! My skin's an NC40 in the summer and would always feel weird trying to wear an extremely pale nude against my olive skin. But with confidence and a hint of beige/gray to...

i thought the color looked cool in the bottle. but it's not a flattering looking color on my hand, and made worse by the fact it's streaky no matter how carefully i apply it.

I just did my nails this color a couple days ago and it was the first time I had used this polish on its own. The first time I did a manicure with Sand Tropez as the base and Set In Stones layered...

This is the perfect nude, the kind of colour I have been looking for my whole life! IMHO it applies very easily and evenly, no streaks at all. The colour is at its best after 3 coats I think. Hail...

My favorite nail polish. It's a pretty nude colour that matches my skintone. I always put on 1 base coat, 2 layers of sand tropez and 1 top coat. Lasts about 8 days on my nails. Couldn't ask for...

Unfortunately, this color looks like thick cement on my hands and is not flattering. I was hoping this would be close to what Au Natural used to be, but this is more opaque.

I agree with the previous reviewer. This is not a flattering colour; it is a chauky, ashy, pastel brown. I am fair neutral leaning slightly to warm.

I'll take Spoiled Show Me Some Skin or Essie Fiji over this any day for a chic pale manicure. This has an ashy undertone that might work for pale, cool-toned girls but not for me. Mannequin...

I am not big on nude polishes but this one is my favorite one ever. Yes it's thick, but it still applies easily and perfectly. Two layers, a top coat and you have yourself a flawless finish....

As with most light colors of Essie polish, I would have wished for a thinner consistency. It's easier to apply than some and is a nice color, but it's streaky and gooey. I'm no expert at polish...

I've been lemming over this for quite a while now. I tend to be disappointed with "nude" nail polish shades as they usually take five million coats to make them opaque and then it never dries and...

Honestly, for all the people saying its streaky and application is difficult: I didn't have that problem at all. And I usually do with lighter shades (especially like Essie's Sugar Daddy). This one...

Favorite Nude Polish EVER. Incredibly shiny (without top coat), classy, neutral shade that also looks fantastic when matte. I got it on a whim, can't reccommend it more.

Classiest shade of nail polish I own. I pair this up with an awesome gold glitter polish I have by Butter London, and it really does give that posh, glamorous but neat Saint Tropez feel to it....

This shade perfect for my skin tone--very fair, blondish brown hair with green eyes. I'm sad about how glumpy it is. Very hard to get this to look good. I went to the department store to look for...
