    I want to love this polish so bad. It’s such a beautiful, eye-catching, bold blue that looks great on my short, square nails. The formula and wear, however, leave a LOT to be desired. It goes on...

    If you manage to get an even coat on the nails, it begins to chip after the first day anyway. I even tried adding a second layer of top coat just to get it to stop chipping but it didn't help. I...

    The colour is beautiful, a vivid cobalt blue cream. It dries to a satin/matte finish so if you want a glossy finish, use a topcoat. Eddie reformulated this one I think because mine wasn't...

    I'm pretty conflicted about this polish. I did not have issues with application at all like other reviewers have been talking about. However, I just put it on yesterday and it's already so chipped...

    The WORST formula of nail polish I have ever used. Butler Please goes on thick, which is in itself not a problem, but it drags on the nail, clumps, and actually pulls the nail polish already on...

    I just recently purchased this so I am reviewing the revamped formula. I understand the old formula was horrendous. The new one is great. It applies easily with no issues, 2 coats and its done....

    I, unlike most reviewers here, did not have much trouble working with this formula. I understand where they say it gets goopy. If applied too thickly, it will drag the polish and create a clump at...

    I love this color! It's so pretty :) As for the formula, at first I thought it was terrible, but then after using it a few more times I got the hang of it. This type of formula is a little hard to...

    This polish made me go "ugh." Butler Please has the worst formula of any polish I own at the moment. Thick and gloopy. While the color is nice and unique, it doesn't make up for the unpleasant...

    I'm not sure if I got a good bottle, if Essie reformulated this polish, or if I just have low standards, but to me Butler Please isn't that hard to work with. It gives opaque coverage in two coats,...

    I was very excited when I found this at my Shopper's. Yet when I looked at the bottle, it seemed separated and the color was foggy and greyish- not the bright bold hue online. Still I bought it....

    Love the colour but it's literally the worst formula I've ever used. It's goopy, uneven, and chips like no other. Don't buy it.

    I kept seeing this polish every time I went to Target, so I finally bought it. This is my first Essie polish and my first venture into brights. I love the color in the bottle, but on my fingers it...

    Beautiful polish- Definitely a favourite of mine. It's a bright, almost electric cobalt blue. Darker in some lights and lighter in others, it's definitely a chameleon polish. I painted my nails...

    Lots of people do not like this polish, they review that it has a terrible formula. However, I feel it isn't the worst formula. You just need to understand it has a semi matte finished, similar to...
