    For some reason, this polish turns a scary lavendar next to my fair skin, but I gave it a 3 because it looks amazing when layered with montauk the end or potato fields. This review was originally...

    The best nail polishes I've tried so far! The different nude/peach/pink french manicure-colors I've tried are so great, they make your nails look cleaner and better, not like you've applied nail...

    I use a lot of Essie polishes and they are all usually great. This one however is horrible. It somehow manages to make my nails look like they have yellow spots on the nail bed. It's also super...

    I've been searching for awhile for the perfect soft pink shade at my nail salon. I decided to try Sugar Daddy this weekend and love it. I found it a bit too pink after it was immediately applied,...

    This is a very cool toned pink sheer. Sugar Daddy is very close to Essie Mademoiselle, just a tiny, tiny bit warmer. They are hard to tell apart on the nail. Although I prefer Sugar Daddy, both are...

    After scouring the mean streets of the internet to find THE BEST polish for cool-toned, fair skin, I found the majority vote to be with Essie's Sugar Daddy. I think it was recommended by Instyle...

    I find that Essie is an often misunderstood brand of polish, but I have really grown to love Essie, especially over OPI. Essie is often known only for their sheer, french, and "Your nails but...

    Essie is my favorite. I find it easy to apply and it last forever without chipping. I wash my hands frequently (am a nurse) and it lasts for a week!

    Essie is a very good brand - large selection of colors and cute little bottles. The polish definitely lasts and the price is fair. Most nail salons use Essie.

    The *absolute* best neutral for fair, pink-based skins. I've tried 'em all -- all the Essie sheers, just go down their list of colors -- and got the recommendation for this from InStyle Magazine,...

    Essie doesn't live up to the hype for me, which is too bad because they carry such a huge selection of gorgeous colors and they're not too expensive. The problem I have is similar to everybody...

    I feel horrible for 'dissing' poor Essie polishes. Their colors are exquisite, but I have not found an Essie nail polish that does not run and streak on me. Even the bargain polishes go on...

    On a bigger scale, Essie is a decent brand. The polish stays and the colors come out wonderfully. However, to me, the lighter colors were annoyingly runny and they chipped after a few days. I like...

    They dry fast, never chip, last for at least a week. It is safe to say I love Essie nail polish! But I still seem to purchase a lot more OPI..maybe because of the wider range of colors. Like I said...
