Essie Nail Polish, Bikini So Teeny, Blue Shimmer, 0.46 fl oz

My best advice for this or really any color product you have not bought before is do not rely on online swatches only if at all possible. I did some window shopping online looking for a new spring shade. Online it looked very muted and light, similar to some shades I already have. I had decided on a different shade based on online swatches, but selected this one when I got to the store. It's a nice shade, not to bright, and not too muted, I would say it's more of a salmon or light coral than peach. It's a good shade for spring and summer. It applies evenly and does not streak, weak time is average A lovely Spring/Summer shade, but I'd wear it year-round. I hope Essie keeps making this one. It's a keeper

Essie Peach Side Babe nail polish has quickly become a favorite in my collection. The vibrant peach shade instantly lifts my mood and adds a touch of summer to any day. I love how smoothly it applies with Essie's signature brush, making it easy to achieve an even, professional-looking finish. Just two coats provide a beautiful, glossy color that lasts nearly a week without chipping, which is impressive given how often I use my hands. The scent is like any other nail polish, not too strong. The color itself is wonderfully versatile, looking great whether I’m dressed casually for a weekend outing or a bit more polished for a brunch with friends. It’s a perfect match for my skin tone, adding a cheerful pop that brightens my look.

Love the formula and colors so much! It's a bit pricey but I think it's worth it to get a nice at home mani, which saves money in the long run! I'm a fan of the puns in the names as well. My only gripe is that I find inconsistencies in formulas and shades from time to time usually depending on the store I go to. Maybe some places have older batches that have been sitting on the shelf longer, I'm not sure. Forever Yummy has been my go to shade of red nail polish for years now, it's the perfect amount of a rich, apple red without being too orange or pink. I hope they never discontinue the shade! Overall love these polishes and so happy they came out with their new Expressie line of fast drying formula. In the future I hope they expand and start making non toxic ... MoreLove the formula and colors so much!

Bikini so teeny is perfect for spring! It is a light cornflower blue that dries into a subtle glossy shine. The color can be a soft touch of blue or can be a strong statement to any outfit after two coats of polish. Like many Essie nail polishes, it dries quickly (under 10 minutes per coat) and becomes a tough chip resistant lacquer. I love to pair this look with some equally stunning blue eyeshadow to create a spring girl aesthetic!

Greetings everyone my name is Emile Rudolph a mother of 3kids I’m from New Jersey, I wasn’t able to get a personal loan to startup a business. I was so worried what’s the problem.. So I had to do some history checks on my credit. I noticed I had some couple of closed accounts, late payments of fees medical bills and few credit card debts. My score went low to 456. Then I spoke to a friend about these issues.. He then recommended me to a credit professional (TROVIAN CREDIT REPAIR). I contacted them and they gave me assurance that in less than 7days everything will be fine..After 2days i started getting good notifications about my report. My credit score increased to 796. I finally got the loan I seek for and now my business is going well.

Essie Peach Side Babe is my new go-to nail polish! The color is absolutely stunning – a perfect peachy hue that's vibrant yet elegant. It applies smoothly and evenly, and with just two coats, I get a flawless, salon-quality finish. The polish is long-lasting and chip-resistant, keeping my nails looking fresh for days. I also love how quickly it dries, making it super convenient for a quick manicure. Highly recommend this shade for anyone looking to add a pop of color to their nail collection!

Essie nail polish is truly an acquired taste. The natural nail colors lean quite sheer but that is precisely why I love it. Truthfully, my first time with this brand I was shocked that many of their sheer nude polishes required at least 5 coats. You have to ask yourself, is it worth all the extra effort? The final result satisfied my initial doubts. The more I wore them, the more I grew to love them for their particular uniqueness even more than any other brands. Why, you ask? These were truly the most natural nail polishes of all and they provided the sort of elegance and delicateness to the fingers unmatched by other brands of polishes. It gives a sheer wash of delicate color that softens the overall presence of your hands wonderfully. This polish has the unique ... MoreEssie nail polish is truly an acquired taste.

You have to ask yourself, is it worth all the extra effort? The final result satisfied my initial doubts. The more I wore them, the more I grew to love them for their particular uniqueness even more than any other brands. Why, you ask? These were truly the most natural nail polishes of all and they provided the sort of elegance and delicateness to the fingers unmatched by other brands of polishes. It gives a sheer wash of delicate color that softens the overall presence of your hands wonderfully. This polish has the unique quality of making your hands look extremely pretty and feminine in a soft and delicate manner more so than other polishes which is an overall quality I have not seen quite as intensely or consistently across other brands' nail polish lines. These natural shades blend right in especially because of the sheerer formula that retain the naturalness of your nails while giving you the beauty of bridal nails on an everyday basis. The delicate look is the essence of having an Essie polish. The bright shades take fewer coats to reach opacity but are just as pretty and elegant. While I can appreciate the bolder, brighter looks of other brands with full opacity in 1-2 coats, I strongly appreciate how Essie polishes can make even bright, colorful shades subtler and look like the height of sophistication, wearable even in professional environments, being stunning without drawing too much attention. I would describe Essie polishes as softer, delicate beauty. If you are looking for bolder, more extravagant looks, Essie is on the opposite end (with the exception of their glitter polishes), wonderful in its own right but more a brand for a specific kind of consumer that adores the softer, more modest variety of nail polish, a type of nail polish not as widely in abundance but highly sought after by a certain kind of nail polish lover/wearer. So if you like things simple or you are just in the mood for something softer, Essie is a fantastic brand. The thinner formula also lasted longer than my other brands. It also is much easier to remove than other brands as a result. Essie makes the best glitter polishes I have ever seen--truly the only polishes in the line that I would call extravagant if that is what you are going for and yet they are still the epitome of sophistication--flashy, sparkling, full of the most glitter in just a swipe, breathtaking in all lighting. Essie nail polishes are for a highly specific taste and for those whom these polishes are a match, this brand is pure gold.

Great overall! I love Essie and their products. I have been using their products for years now. I was especially excited about this color because from the outside, it looked like there were sparkles that made an almost metallic finish. However, I’m sad to say that those sparkles are unnoticeable. Still, it’s such a good color and only needs one swipe(picture shows only 1 swipe!). It only took 2 minutes to fully dry. Overall, this polish is beautiful and very wintery. Thanks Essie!

One of the next colours on the market. This is the perfect shade of blue for any occasion. It fits the blueberry trend, the bridesmaid colours, spring and summer season and perfect for office wear without screaming look at me! It’s such a pretty shade. The wear time is pretty long for a nail polish (1-2 weeks). It dries the same amount of time like other nail polishes and shines nicely with top coat. I can’t say how often it chips cause it’s different for everyone but it’s a good brand and polish.

TOO EXPENSIVE

Boatloads of love is a beautiful muted, creamy white. It’s not pink, not even slightly - more of a grayish undertone. It’s not iridescent - not at all even though the bottle looks like it. It’s very streaky - 3 coats for decent coverage. And it dries weird, almost like it’s old polish which sucks because I literally just bought this. Idk how well it wears but judging by the tiny bubbles forming and how long it’s taking to fully dry, I’m not hopeful. Super disappointing considering the price!
