    Essie is hands down the best nail polish Ive ever used! It lasts forever, When it does chip, they are minor, never big pieces flaking off. They are pricey for sure, but I went out, got 5 colors (red, pink, dark purple, nude and a funky teal) and threw out a good 25 bottles of crappy polish in varying shades of those colors that had turned sticky, gunky, chunky and otherwise useless! If I think of all the $$ I spent on the crap ones, I would have SAVED getting Essie in the first place.

    Essie has a great range of colors of polish available with a great formula that lasts pretty long before chipping.

    Essie nail polish is most definitely one of the top polishes that are out there on the market today. What I love most about essie polish is the wide range of light colours they have. I'm not a very big fan of dark polish, and essie has the most brilliantly light colour ranges. From the perfect nude-pink colours to honeydew green to baby blue, it has been one of the best.

    Also, the quality of essie polishes are top-notch. Not too runny and not too thick. Perfection.

    I love Essie nail polish, okay? I know it's not cheap, but I cant help but love it. They have an awesome selection of nail polishes with beautiful, long-lasting colors. It's easy to apply and you usually only need 2-3 coats of polish for a beautiful nail salon look. This has got to be one of my favorite brands of nail polish, not to mention how cute the bottles are!

    Essie is definitely my favorite nail polish for many reasons. They have hundreds of cute colors for every season and style. The polish goes on smoothly, I have never had problems with chunky or sticky polish. I am also a huge fan of there print ads, I am an Advertising major, so I am accustomed to looking at ads and there ads are so cute and effective! I love essie nail polish, I am a loyal customer!!

    When it comes to nail polish quality can mean for a better manicure. Essie nail products are amazing quality, but that is not the only reason to love them! They also come in tons of fun shades and you can buy polish in every colour under the sun from sugary pink to ocean blue!

    My only recommendation is if you are planning on using this nail polish be sure to use an equally high quality top and base coat (optional) to keep the colour from chipping too soon!

    Overall I loved the Essie products and, yeah, since I am really attracted to a cute bottle I loved the clean, yet modern style is the Essie nail polish bottles!

    So my current favourite nail polish is Essie in Tart Deco. It's this great peachy coral colour - almost cantaloupe - that looks fantastic with a tan, and just feels like summer! Essie brushes aren't my favourite, I actually prefer the brush and formula of OPI, but I haven't been able to find a comparable colour, so Essie it is. Just be careful during application and throw a top-coat on after.

    I have just really noticed Essie because I have neen watching Youtube beauty gurus use this brand alot. I only have two nail polishes from them, but I truly adore them! I have two pink colors, one is a orange-ish pink which is called Guilty Pleasures and the other is a softer pink called forget me nots. They both take 3 coats and last about a week for me.

    I have recently started getting into Essie polishes. I had avoided them before because it seemed like their core line was a lot of reds and pinks and I just wasn't that interested, but I have found that they have amazing collections.

    I like picking up the collection cubes that they often have because it lets me get most (if not all) of the colours at a pretty good price. Their formula can vary from shade to shade, but most shades only take two coats to be opaque. I am a huge fan of Lapis of Luxury, Splash of Grenadine and Topless and Barefoot.
