My LOVE for Essie nail polishes!

Since i tried Essie nail polishes last year i've been hooked! I was VERY excited when they hit Boots stores across the UK and went out and brought my first three nail polishes there and then since then i've accumulated a fair few that proudly sit in my nail polish box in my room! ( I will do a blog post on that in a few weeks ) 


I just want to talk about this recent shade i've got on my nails this week.  A few months ago i received my monthly Glossybox ( which is a beauty box that gets delivered to your house monthly, it costs £12.95 inc delivery and you get to sample five new products!)  and to my surprise there was a Essie full size nail polish in there! I received the shade Geranium which is a lovely shade of bright red. I have to admit it's taken me a few months to decide to give this a go, i wear red but i feel like it's to bright on my hands so stick to wearing it on my toes. This week i thought what the heck, i'll try something different and the more i look down at my finger nails the more i'm growing to like it!


At first i have to admit i wasn't too sure as i tend to always stick to the same neutral shades  and don't tend to be so adventurous on my finger nails, so it was nice to try something different. I have to admit that i don't think i would have gone out and picked this shade up in my local boots store but it is nice to try something different.


As always the application of Essie nail polishes was spot on, it applied perfectly as the brush is just the right size to do the three strip application. The consistency of the colour was great and i only needed two coats and the shade was opaque. I finished my nails off with my all star topcoat Kensington Caviar 45 Second Top Coat by Nails Inc which can be purchased from larger Boots stores across the UK. 


I would definitely suggest when your next in your Boots or Superdrug stores that you check out the Essie stand, they have a large selection of shades and for £7.99 i can surely say they are worth every penny!
