essie colors of the week

This color is the perfect blend between red and orange. It is a great burst of color for the rest of summer, but also can be worn in the fall. 

geranium

This color I like because it almost looks white. A lot of people are painting their nails white for summer...but if you don't want white nails this is the perfect color for you. It is different than muchi, muchi it is just hard to tell in the pictures.

This is a very summertime color. A perfect light and pastel purple.

the weekly essie update

annddd here are your fabulous essie colors of the week.

I picked this color mostly because I wish I was back in Nice, France right now lying on the pebble beaches instead of in the 110 degree weather...but the color is lovely as well! 

"nice is nice"

With the advice of my friend (and reader!), Erin, I purchased Merino Cool...great advice. It is a simple fall mulberry color and a great neutral.

Now for the basics, I have been using the same top coat for who knows how long and it finally ran out. I even tried to pour drops of it out straight onto my nail...forget the brush. So I had to break down and find a new top coat. 

This is NOT a quick dry top coat...do not be confused. I am very satisfied with the results so far! I'll let you know in 10 days if it holds true to its guarantee (no chips for 10 days)...although I can't seem to keep one color on my nails for 2 days let alone 10 days. Wish me luck. 

"no chips ahead"

More essie to come next week!

loving these essie colors this week...

This color was precious on. Not too pink, not too orange..and definitely not coral. Just the perfect color!

"Cute as a Button"

This color I love because you can wear it all year long. I will definitely be wearing this color into the fall season...I'll just apply a thicker coat to make it a bit darker. Right now I'm wearing it as more of a neutral and just applying 2 thin coats.  It ends up a nice sage color. 

"Sew Psyched"

For the bold nail polish girls! This is a fabulous blue to try because it turns out as bright as it looks in the picture...definitely a keeper.  

"Mezmerised"

Let me know your favorite essie colors!

essie lover

Being a loyal essie nail polish lover, I want to share my favorite colors this week with you. (I change my nail polish about 4 times a week...obsessed). This week I am loving Muchi Muchi on my toes. It is a nice pastel pink and complements your summer tan!

For my manicure, Sand Tropez was a nice neutral touch. I had to apply 3 coats to achieve the color I wanted, but was very happy with the finished look.

And last but not least, Lapis of Luxury is a fabulous color for your nails. The pale blue is a splash of color but not too harsh for those who don't like to wear crazy nail polishes. Once again, it complements your summer tan and who wouldn't want that! 

I buy my essie polishes at Ulta, but several places carry it if there is no Ulta near you. Try these colors and you will be a loyal essie lover like myself!
