    A great treat!

    Essie nail polishes are great and there are so many beautiful colors to chose from. I like how the brush is made, it makes the perfect strokes and leave your nails looking gorgeous. It also dry’s fast!

    All the colours!

    I've tried a couple of the Essie nail polish, from their matte collection, and also their nail reinforcing polish. The quality is great but their price can be a bit steep for their value, i always wait for a store to have them on sale.

    So many colors!

    I have had essie in the past (distant past) but never realized then what a great product it is! I recently got some in a swag bag in a beautiful teal and I am in love! Going to grab some more fun colors next time I'm out :)

    Don't understand the hype

    Everyone I know always raves about Essie. I needed a good nail polish that would last through a weekend getaway. I picked a beautiful shade of pale blush and carefully applied two coats and a top coat. I allowed plenty of drying time inbetween coats. This was Thursday. By lunch on Friday, one of my nails was peeling and three others had chipped. I had to redo my nails before the trip! This time I used another brand that cost 1/4 the price of the Essie. It lasted 4 days before it chipped. Other than the beautiful colour, I thought Essie nail polish was rubbage.

    terrible

    I was excited when I bought my new essie nail polish and it is a disaster. I think other chipper nail polishes working much better than this $10 one. It is not staying longer on my nails than 2 days, I would not by it again!

    Essie!

    Essie comes in a huge range of colours. Some stores sell more variety than others but you can even buy online and find the exact colour you’re looking for. This nail polish applies easily and dries in a reasonable time. I find Essie nail polish also stays on longer than other nail polish brands.

    Definite would buy again!

    This is one of my favourite brands of nail polishes . The polish has a very smooth application and is also very precise . There is a lot of pigmentation and intensity which makes putting on one layer enough. The price can be a bit much for the polish but I would say it’s worth it. Also, it’s very easy to remove i.e. no residue and clean removal.

    Essie exceeds expectations

    As part of my job, I wash my hands many times throughout the day (20+ times). Typically nail polish just doesn’t stand the test. I received an Essie polish in a glam bag one month and am beyond impressed and satisfied with the quality. This is THE only polish that doesn’t chip within 24 hours. I highly recommend this product.

    Wild Nude by Essie

    Essie is a high quality nail polish that lasts and lasts for me. This Wild Nude Color is so elegant when worn. I’ve worn it to many dressy going out events with various color dress or skirt/ pant options and it’s been a win every time. The color goes with everything. The smooth and easy application of the polish is also a plus too. No clumpy mess and seems to always look like professionally done nails.
