    Essie

    Although I love the colors and the themed polishes they come out with I find that Essie polish doesn't stay on without chipping as long as some more reasonably priced drugstore brands do, or other brands that compare in price.

    I love Essie colors! I gravitate towards them every time I'm shopping for a new shade. The staying power is pretty great with them too; I only wear polish on my toe nails and they stay in good shape for a week or so. Good coverage and smooth application too!

    Essie Nail Polish has so many colors it's wonderful. I like many of the nude polishes. When you want to have something neutral that will last for days and go with every outfit, it's great.They are so creamy and leave a high shine, it really brings out your beautiful nails. A color for everyone. Young or old.

    They dry faster than most brands. I also like the brush, it makes the nail polish easier to apply. Essie offers a good range of colors. I like their nude colors the best. I don't think they stay long enough though.

    I purchased essie nail polish in shade 754 mint candy apple.

    I was hoping to enjoy this polish that my daughter picked out but i must admit, I was disappointed. I applied two coats to her bare nails and used opi dry drops afterwards.

    Pros
    - Nice pastel colour for spring likely better suited to my 7 year old daughter than on me
    - dries pretty quickly

    Cons
    - Streaky
    - Hard to apply

    * I did buy essie gel polish which i actually preferred.
    - Chipped the next day

    Essie remains one of my favorite nail polish brands out of all the big and readily available ones. The slim brush is good for my smaller nails, the colors are always on point, and the bottles are the cutest and are easy to store away (I have well over a hundred Essies, and have many swatched on my blog). Occasionally there will be a shade that doesn't apply all that well, but overall the brand is quite reliable and it's very good value.

    Essie nail polish is amazing. The color is so pretty it's a pastel blue and you can wear it whenever. It's easy to apply and to clean up, it's Alittle pricey but not bad, it's worth the buy. My friends love this color and I told them to buy it a lot of them did and they were pleased with it
