Satiny Color Thats Perfect For Most

Initially I thought the color was a bit light for my skin tone but overtime I've come to like it. Its soft enough to almost look natural but glossy enough to catch the eye. The formula is interesting to work with. It may take me some time to really work out how to use it best. I'd recommend this for...

Difficult Formula, Great Color

Ballet Slippers was one of the first Essie polishes I ever bought, and I bought it because of the amazing reviews I had seen for it. To be completely honest, the formula is VERY difficult to work with. It's a lovely sheer color, but you have to put 3 coats to make the streakiness not visible, and by...

Never dries, clumpy

Streaky and thick. It clumps up when you try to even it out. Will not go on evenly at all and never fully dries down no matter how thin the coat is.

Beautiful color, insane cure time

The color itself is phenomenal, but the formula desperately needs improvement. Because it is so sheer you must use at least two coats to get it anywhere close to even, but the cure time (even for the first coat) is so long that you're bound to mess the job up anyway. Even after 4 hours it is not fully cured and I'm still getting new dents and dings everywhere.

Pretty color but streaky even after 3 coats

I saw the color on essie's website and loved it. The possibility to wear it as a sheer or solid depending on the number of coats seemed great. I found it in a very popular retail store and bought it immediately. However, it is so streaky that one coat is not enough and even after three coats it shows empty lines. Disappointing.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

I thought this color would have more pink in it. However, if you want to really show up like I am use to apply two to three coats. I love this nail polish! This was Queen Elizabeth ll's nail polish and that says a lot . Definitely a keeper!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

What do I like? I love the Essie brand, they have a ton of color options for any occasion! The polish never seems to get dry or gooey after awhile..it seems to last forever! What do I not like? Obviously Essie is a cheaper brand, so it does not last a very long time but enough for your occasion! I'm pretty hard on my hands so that may be why it doesn't last too long for me though!

Excelent where is the true ballet slippers

So I bought the first ballet slipers that is on the left side. It was awful, striky, sticky and too thick. But then I knew something is wrong, because it should look sheer. So I decided to buy a new one and I opened every ballet slippers in store to see the texture. So in my opinion it looked that are other shades mixed in the same line within ballet slippers with the sticker that says ballet slippers. Since the new one I bought (on the right side) it's absolutely AMAZING and now my favourite. It is possible that the sticker is not matching the nail polish. Because it was weird. 10 same names but shades in 4 of them looked different and also the texture. Not sure who is responsible for puting the stickers on nail polishes.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I love this nude shade of Essie. It gives a proper French manicure feel. It makes a great base coat. It's very long-lasting.
