    Even though I have a small nail polish collection (only 10), 5 of them are pink. This however is my favourite purchase of all of them. I wish I could have found it cheaper, but it's a popular...

    This is pathetic. I have three essie nail polishes, one from a while ago and 2 new ones. Quite frankly they all suck. I thought maybe the older one was a dud so i tried their polishes again. They...

    I hate this polish Tried it three times now and even with base coat still is streaky. I need at least 3 coats to get it to look even and then it's counterintuitive to its purpose which is a sheer...

    Hi purchased Essie Sugar Daddy to do french manicures with and I couldn't be happier with this nail polish. It goes on smooth and creamy, self levels and doesn't streak at all. The color is a...

    Not worth the price! Wasted money! Especially after finding one dollar polishes that were better quality.

    Somehow Essie nail polishes do not work for me. One and half day without chipping is my maximum wear length. The brush is too thin for a flawless application and the polish itself dries too fast in...

    I've had this nail polish since June in the shade forever yummy. It's a beautiful classical red shade. If I apply 2 coats it lasts around a week, but the coats have to be really thin. It also dries...

    I love the colours of Essie but they get stringly and sticky so quick!!! I have so many kinds but I think I am done buying Essie. Not a good quality for the price I pay! I'm very disappointed:(

    I've tried for the last 3 hours to apply this smoothly to my toenail... It's still a mess. This formula is thin and runny and after three coats (letting each dry for aaaaages) it's still looking...

    They last for such a short time, even when I paint my nails with gel underneath first. I can maybe get through 1 day without chips, peeling, etc. Probably not worth the investment because they're...

    I love Essie because I tend to wear sheer colors and their sheers are pretty much the only ones I can put on without having splotchy, streaky nails. I have found that using Revlon's Gel Smooth...

    This is an Essie sheer bridal type polish. Essie do sheers well, it's easy to apply and easy to get an even coverage with this, what you get at 1 coat is what you get at 2 or 3 coats, an even wash...

    Expensive nail polish with terrible staying power. I have prepped my nails by buffing, using base coats, not using base coats, and cleaning with strong alcohol solution, but Essie polish chips...

    These polishes for me are so blah. I think they're overpriced for the quality. The formula is nice from all the 9 polishes over tried from this line, one coat never does anything and usually even a...

    Hmm... I've been hunting for the perfect mid-tone pink polish. This is not that. Putting that aside, it's not a total waste. This is a super sheer pink. Even after 5 coats, this is not opaque....
