  • I’ve used Essie products for years. They never disappoint, and I love all the choices of nail varnish they provide.

  • Fun nail polish colors, you can literally find any color you want in their line! Plus, they are nice quality and easy to use!

  • I have had many varnishes from Essie. I like their selection of natural tones and nude varnishes but also darker tones which have good colour pay off. Some of the pastel ones go a bit patchy but that goes for most pastel tones varnishes of many brands.

  • Love the range of colors and quality of polish!

  • Cult favorite nail polish, what's not to love? Last long, lots of fun colors.

  • Essie nail polish has become my go-to choice for achieving salon-quality nails at home. Their extensive range of colors and finishes allows for endless creativity and experimentation. What sets Essie apart is its high-quality formula, which applies smoothly, dries quickly, and lasts for days without chipping. Whether I'm going for a classic manicure or a bold statement look, Essie always delivers impeccable results. Plus, the iconic square bottle design is not only stylish but also practical, making it easy to store and use. If you're looking for reliable nail polish that delivers professional-grade results, look no further than Essie.

  • Just the gold standard for nail polish! No more words needed.

  • The colors are very vibrant and fun! It does take a little bit longer to dry then other colors but it is long lasting

  • Love Essie! I've been using this product since I was little. My favorite color is Matter of Fiction. Great quality and rarely chips.

  • LOVE! Doesn’t chip on my nails and my pedicures last soo long!

  • I have used many other nail polish brands but Essie is the best by far. The colors are brilliant, long-lasting and application is easy.

  • I love Essie brand nail polish. It's affordable and long lasting with no chipping. It glides on smoothly and dries quickly.

    Influencer for Essie
  • Essie is a nice polish that lasts a several days to a week. The best part of Essie, besides being vegan, are all of the amazing colors they offer. I've received many compliments when using their royal blue polish.

  • As a teenager and kid I would use these polishes at the nail salon. As an adult I found other options that use less chemicals and tend not to chip as much.

  • I love the Essie colors more than any other brand out there right now, but feel that the don't last as long as some of their competitors. The base coat by Essie is my favorite though for strengthening my nails.

  • I think they always have such fun colors! Good quality though I do find if the color is sheer, it's a huge pain to apply in combination with their thinner brush. Feels like a lotta work to do a few layers.

  • Favorite nail polish brand hands down. Essie offers the best range and color option for nail polish. They crush the colors offered and my nails look like I just hit the salon every time I paint them at home.

  • I feel like for the price they're not that good, they work and have good color with easy use and good formula, but they're nothing special and they do not stay on that long.

  • Beautiful colors. 4 stars because I find the applicator a bit difficult, but the applicator of the Essie longer wish is easier to manage because of the twisted grip.

  • I love the fast dry twisted essie, Gel Couture. I think the color lasts, doesn't chip and it doesn't smudge because of the quick dry. My only complaint is that they don't have the same names as the corresponding color in regular dry, which makes it frustrating to do a mani in quick dry and a pedi in regular polish.
