I tried out this great colour from Essie and I really liked it. It went on nice, but you did need 2 coats to cover well. It probably lasted about a week before I had to remove and reapply. I think it would be a great colour for a pedicure and on vacation. The name is Bahama Mama so it's only appropriate to be in the sun with it. It didn't chip off, just regular wear from everyday use. I'd like to try other shades.

This is one of my all time favourite winter nail colours. Although it's called Bahama Mama, it definitely is more of a cold weather shade (but hey! no rules, right?). It is opaque, goes on smoothly and is pretty chip resistant compared to some other Essie products.
