I really really love this polish for french manicures. It's not really sheer, it's not really opaque . . . it is pretty much a jelly. I absolutely love that it's not stark white for french...

I was debating between Marshmallow and Waltz and opted for the more opaque of the two. I'm glad I did. my natural nails are very thin/soft, and the white part of my nail LOOKS inconsistent and...

Ivory/white with a glassy quality that I've grown to associate with Essie. I wouldn't classify this as sheer, nor would I say it's opaque, really more of a jelly. There's a definite softness to...

Way too streaky for me to wear alone although that was my intended purpose. I've come across better sheer white polishes. I use it sometimes as a base or a primer for other sheer colors I want to...

OK, sheer whitish ivory. Not too white so it's good for french manicures but it's too sheer so all of your defect show. Make sure your nail tips are in pristine condition. Streaky so your...

I love this polish for soft white tips. I use CG Base Coat, one coat of Essie Vanity Fairest, one coat of Marshmallow, one coat of Glove Service and then SV. Awesome and totally natural. I am not...

Beautiful color that is perfect for the spring and summer months. I do have to layer at least two to three coats to get the white I want, but it comes out looking very good. One of my favorite...

I finally found it! It is the best sheer white for French Manicure if you don't like the white white french tips. You need 2 coats to make it nice finish looking. It is very forgiving. If you...

This is, like many other reviewers stated below, great for french tips, as it's a soft jelly-white, and therefore makes for nicer french manicure's than stark white. I don't usually do french...

Like many other people, I use this for french manicures. It's a soft translucent white, not stark white. I've even had people mistake it for my real nail color (I'm fairly pale). However, as...

This is the perfect soft white for a french manicure, and it also makes a pretty, soft color for all over the nail. I have found that it's a little temperamental, however; it tends to be a little...

Only tried this on tips for French manicure, and I like it a lot. It’s opaque enough but not too opaque. On top of this, I wear Vanity Fairest, Hi Maintenance, or Nude Beach. Good white!

My HG white!! Marshmallow is a soft, jelly white. Not white out white at all. I like to wear this either on it's own or under sheers to make them more opaque. 3 coats creates a lovely shiny...

This is great as french mani tips when you don't want a start white, but a softer, gentler one that looks more natural. I freehand with this and get so many compliments. It wears well and I would...

Marshmallow is a soft white creme. For me, it was opaque after 3 coats. It has great staying power. If you are looking for a white polish, try this one.

This is the absolute best color for the tip when doing a french mani. I use 2 coats for the tip and it is perfection! I love it because it isn't "too white". Use along with Mademoiselle and that is...

I really wanted to try this product because of all the positive reviews. I was very disappointed. The white is a good white in the bottle, but it goes on very sheer and takes a lot of coats to get...

A clean, crisp sheer true white - much better than Waltz, that has an off/ivory type of tone. This is not meant to be opaque, rather a sheer wash for perfectly clean looking tips. Love it.
