    If you struggle with shades like this streaking or applying with difficulty, this one is not one of those polishes. It applies easily with no streaks unlike other Essie shades like Ballet Slippers...

    Essie nail polish is truly an acquired taste. The natural nail colors lean quite sheer but that is precisely why I love it. Truthfully, my first time with this brand I was shocked that many of...

    Essie is quite expensive and contains the toxic “formaldehyde releases” I did two perfect coats and it chipped in less than 8 hours. Will never buy again.

    Just okay. Not impressed with how the polish looks once dried nor with its staying power. I’ve bought polishes which are a lot less expensive that give much better results than this one. Can not...

    I have been looking for a good sheer nude/pink polish. Sugar Daddy by Essie is perfect. Unlike most of the nude polishes I've tried, this does not streak. It doesn't look too white. It leaves a...

    Essie Nail Polishes come in a variety of shades and colors with very cute and creative names. However, that's about the only upside to this nail polish line. I have tried three or four different...

    Cheap quality, chips within a day, grossly overpriced. I don't understand why this polish is so expensive when the quality is sub par. Cute names and a pretty pallet does not make up for it. Even...

    My favourite nude nail varnish. Gives a perfect illusion of healthy, pink nails. I usually mix it with one layer of Mademoiselle and put this one o top if I don't want to have my nails looking too...

    I was a huge fan of this polish but no longer. I'd rather buy some old Opi or Wet n Wild at the Dollar store. The last two I bought go on streaky and clumpy and take many coats which then take...
