Hello Beauties,
Hope you’re all
doing great
Last week I
tested out a new nail polish for about 5 days, that I bought a couple of weeks
ago: the Essence Color & Go Nail polish in the color ‘Off to Miami’. I have
been keeping notes on what I think about the product and how it lasted
throughout these 5 days:
Day 1:
First off I
really like this color. Spring is round the corner (even though at the moment its raining in Malta hehe), and bold and bright colors
are back in style.
First impression
as soon as I open the cap is that I was really impressed by the quality and
size of the brush. I like how wide the brush is since it covers a larger
surface area of the nail and I also found that I did fewer mistakes.
Till now, I like
the quality of the product. The color is opaque, it’s not streaky, and it
applies as can been seen in the bottle. I only applied 2 coats, and as one can
notice from the photos the color is as bright as can be. The first picture depicts the 1st coat, and the 2nd picture depicts the 2nd coat.
Day 1 |
Nothing much
changed today; however, the polish on the pointer finger has slightly chipped.
I didn't think much of it since my work involves quite a lot of typing;
therefore I think that that is the cause.
Day 3:
Quite a lot of
chipping today. Also, I found that the color has not remained as vibrant as the
previous two days. It does not hold up that much to the hardships of everyday
life that our hands go through.
Chipping
continued, to the extent that the 5th finger nail has no nail polish
left on it.
Conclusion:
As an overall
opinion after these 5 days, I think that there are much better quality nail
polishes in the market. However, for its inexpensive price (around 2- 2.50
euro), I didn't expect anything grand. Also, for those that like to switch
their nail polish color every 2 to 3 days, I think this product would be ideal.
Regarding the packaging, I like the fact that the cap is the same color as the
actual nail polish. For these reasons, I would recommend this product; however
keep in mind that it does not last as long as other nail polishes.
That’s all for
today,
Until next time,
Take Care,
Jessica xxx
