At this moment in time, Essie Mint Candy Apple is my favourite nail polish (closely followed my the new Barry M Gelly nail paint in Lychee). I actually gave one of these away in my 100 follower giveaway months ago but never got round to buying one for myself until the other week. I've been wearing it so much lately and yet again Essie does not disappoint. I also got some new pretty bedding so I thought I'd use it as my background for a wee change.
Mint Candy Apple (as you can tell my the name) is a gorgeous pale mint colour, a perfect pastel for Spring. After a few months of wearing dark colours on my nails, it's finally time to brighten them up and this is the perfect polish to do just that. After only two coats this polish is completely opaque and doesn't take ages to dry (one of my pet hates, I'm too impatient) which is a plus. I really love the quality of Essie polishes and the range of shades is just unreal.
Essie is 100% my favourite nail polish brand, a couple of my favourites are Fiji and Ballet Slippers, are there any other shades you recommend? I'm looking forward to building up my collection and at £7.99 they're definitely worth the price. What do you think of Mint Candy Apple (and how pretty is my bedding)?
This colour looks great. I am still yet to try Essie nail polishes. Fragrance Direct were doing them for just £1.99 so might be worth checking out their website to see if the offer's still on! X x

Ahhh I've been putting off getting this shade because I have a few similar but it really is sooo pretty! Would def recommend you check out Watermelon, Tart Deco and Absolutely Shore if you want to try some more :) xx
ReplyDeleteHow is the stay power? That shade is gorgeous, I to have a Collection 2000 polish in a similar colour. My friend got an essie manicure when she was in London, it looked good.
