Collection: Essie Summer 2014
I have lots of Essie love at the moment!
I recently picked up the Roarrrrange and Strut Your Stuff minis for CA$2.49 each. I bought the full-sized Ruffles & Feathers sometime last year.
Roarrrrange is a punchy tangerine orange cream. Application was great: two thin coats provided lovely, even coverage.
Ruffles & Feathers is a vibrant teal green cream. Application was great, as with Roarrrrange.
It is pretty close to Nails Inc. Queen Victoria Street:
Strut Your Stuff is a vibrant midtone sky blue cream that leans a little bit to the turquoise side. It is nearly, but not quite, a one coat wonder! Two coats was perfect.
Essie Nail Polish retails for US$8.50 / CA$9.99–$10.99 and is 0.46 US fl oz / 13.5 mL. I purchased my mini (0.16 US fl oz / 5 mL) for CA$2.49. The polish is free of toluene, formaldehyde, and dibutyl phthalate (DBP). It is made in the USA.
Essie Cosmetics, founded in 1981, is based in Westfield NJ, USA. In 2010, Essie was acquired by the L’Oréal Group.
I like the green! These shades together remind me of a Santa Fe colour scheme
And oooh, I just followed the Essie collection link to your site! Is this a sneak peek? How exciting!

Nope, that’s the current nail polish library, been up for a couple of yrs now. The revamp is probably being unrolled this weekend, though!

Thanks! The Nails Inc is close but they’re not exactly the same. (Think I actually prefer the Nails Inc.)
