essie Original Nail Polish, Wild Nudes Collections, 491 Bare With me 13.5 ml

I like this brand as it seems to always last a week the colour is lovely

The colour is a beautiful dark coral - oartfect for the summer with a tan! I needed 3 coats of this colour to get full opacity and it dries very quickly and with a gleaming shine the same as a top coat would - top coat still needed though for longevity. So far so good. The brush is shaped like the cuticle and is nice and wide to give a good finish. It goes on nice and smoothly but you need to work quite quickly with it and not be hesitant or you will get some patching. Overall I am pleased with it, it is only day 2 and no chipping or tip wear yet so I am just hoping it lives up to its claims of up to 14 days. I’ve read extensively about Essie gel couture and I’ve seen most people get anywhere between 7- 10 days wear so if I get that I’ll be happy because I’ll want to change colour by then anyway.

The usual good quality that I always get with Essie polish... Only the picture shows the polish as purple, and it's much more towards grey. Still a nice colour, good coverage and easy application. One thing that was a problem though was the packaging... The box (arrived via UPS) was crushed and open at one end and I have no idea how the tiny bottle of polish was still in there and the 6 x 9 inch box was ridiculously big for a 3 inch bottle.

Ordered this gel and it arrived promptly.I love the product and colour. I’ve had so many compliments - people think a nail bar did them! Stays on well

Beautiful bright coral polishPerfect for summer, good application.Love the Essie gel couture range.Great deliverythank you!

Good stocking filler and well recieved

This polish is a slate grey with a hint of blue/purple. It looks more mauve in the bottle than it does when it is on. I really like the colour, in fact it's one of my favourites. It can look more plain grey in some lights but most of the time it looks blue slate grey.Essie polishes are good quality, and once applied carefully can last really well. I use my hands as tools and polishes never last as long as claimed but this one lasts longer than most.

I’ve recently got into Essie gel nail varnish but this colour is awful! It didn’t cover nicely in three coats, which is ridiculous right? Other colours that I’ve tried go on really well in one or two coats, no problem! I don’t understand why there is quite so much difference in consistency between the different shades, and if it’s not possible to produce a shade that goes on in three, perhaps better not to produce it at all!!!
