    Great Selection and Price, Could be Better...

    Essie nailpolishes are really beautiful, well priced and the colour selection is FABULOUS. It applies great and the bottle lasts a long time. The only downside is I do find it chips quite easily when a topcoat is not applied. Other than that, I have no complaints!

    Lovely range of colours

    Brought my first polish recently after hearing good reviews. They have a fantastic colour range. The polish was easy to apply and only needed one coat. Unfortunately it did chip easily.

    High gloss

    This range comes in loads of really modern colours and is good value for money, you need two coats to really get the full colour but once on its long lasting and glossy.

    This is the best nail polish I have ever used

    I am using essie nail polish unicorn dream, mint candy apple shade, and lilacism shade. These two shades look very nice together. This nail polish covers the nail from first time application perfectly and dries very fast. After application polish lasts on the nails for long time and it has no chipping problem. I recommend this nail polish.

    Overall great value

    I love Essie nail polishes not only because they are super affordable, but also because the quality is better than expected from a "cheap" brand. Very pleased !

    Love it, but it’s expensive

    I really enjoy essie brand polish, I love the selection of colours they always have and I do feel that when apllied it lasts a good long time. I do however feel it’s expensive and therefore I don’t purchase often

    $1.99 @ Shoppers Drug Mart

    I found 3 great colours at shoppers drig mart for $1.99 each. They are usually $12.99 here and I know I got a stellar deal. I usually only purchase it if it’s a colour that I really really want and if it’s a promotion of some kind. The colours that I got are fairly light and could work all year round.

    Great choice if you want a variety of options!

    I own a lot of Essie nail polish and I love it because there are so many shade options! I do feel like it is a little expensive for the quality but overall not a bad product!

    Great Polish

    Essie is a great nail polish choice. They have a nice variety of colors and fun names for them. It goes on well. It lasts longer than most of the other brands I have used. It is costly but I expect to typically pay for quality.

    Peels right off

    I really wanted to like this polish.... but I hated it! It took forever to dry and then after one day it was peeling off, not just chipping. Literally the whole nail was peeling off in one piece. After two hours doing 5 coats of colour and a base coat and top coat (because the colour mademoiselle is practically clear otherwise) watching it peel away was so aggravating.
