    Essie Carry On is a beautiful dusty brown-plum cream polish perfect for the colder months. It applied smoothly in one easy coat, but applying a second coat added to the depth of the colour.

    Love the colour, and if you have a lot of patience, it looks really nice. I found the formula watery, and streaky, I had three layers and there were parts where you could see through it, maybe...

    My friend let me borrow this polish, I had never used an Essie nail polish in my life. I used 2 layers for this polish but I noticed it would still need one more later but decided against it since...

    I love the colour of this polish, and unlike others here found it nice to apply. My problem is that the polish is chipping on only day 2, and that's with my Sally Hansen miracle gel top coat, which...

    Love this brownish plum color but wish it applied more like OPI. This is a bit runny and yes I agree it needs a wider brush!!! However, I would buy it again just because I love the color. Nice to...

    This is a gorgeous, quite nuanced brownish plum shade that's perfect for Autumn/Winter. However, the formula and the brush are quite thin which can make the application difficult: a fair few coats...

    Essie: Carry On #388 Amazing shade. It's a nice rich plum (almost black). It is a very sultry colour, it's a little too dark for spring (however, it's not quite spring yet!). This colour goes on...

    I found this difficult to apply, its a thin brush and a thin formula, I need three coats, two would have done but brush strokes were visible. This is the only Essie polish that Ive not been happy...

    Love this color. It's a plum/raisin dusty color. Very dark and in dim light it can be mistaken for more of a black color but in any light it is amazing. I have a warm skintone and some purples are...

    Pretty color, but very dupable. I bought this in a mini set that contained miniature sizes of each color in this collection, and I'm glad I bought it this way. Make sure you wear this over some...

    I am sorry, but I am not totally happy with this one. The color is indeed beautiful - a very dark plum creme with a dusty finish (but not nearly as flat as OPI I Brake for Manicures which otherwise...

    Love! Love! Love! The color looks like money! It's a very opaque, creamy, deep burgundy with a hint of brown. The formula is divine. Just thick enough and super shiny. Two coats and perfection! I...

    This color is from Essie's Fall 2011 collection. I would describe it as being a brownish purple vampy creme. Very on trend with the vampy colors. I definitely agree and say that it looks expensive...

    Gorgeous deep eggplant-colored creme. It looks so expensive, which isn't really something I think about nail polish often. Looks almost black on the nail, but if you look close the color is...

    It's too bad this color is limited edition because I would buy it again and again. This color came out with Essie fall 2011 collection. It looks like a standard vampy cream but it so much more....
