Q: Why are the pictures not matching up with the essie nail colors? For example, "Clothing Optional" is supposed to be a rosey color but it shows up as gray. Want to make sure I'm ordering what I need.

submitted by kfern - 6 years ago
  • A: I'm not sure why it doesn't match up. The color I received was sage/ grey not teal at all.

    submitted byJamie - 6 years ago
  • A: I ordered Go Ginza-a nice light purple, I got Go Ginza a super pale lilac-almost white!!! so sad. I'm returning for the Play date-which looks a bit dark, but it should be perfect cuz they seem much lighter in person.

I bought this to paint my 2 year olds nails. She’s been begging for pink nail polish and this stuff did not disappoint. She’s been walking around for days holding her hand up in reflections so she can stare at her pretty nails. The polish went on smoothly and it’s held up really well.

Can not find another place to send this... Where is my 1023 'Sheer Luck'?? Understand you have discontinued it - but WHY?? It was my absolute favourite. Will have to switch brands. (Have tried your 'ballet slippers' and I do not like this colour at all. What, if any colour do you recommend? Will not waste money trying other colours. Pls. tell me what colour is similar to Sheer Luck. Thanks, Fran Adams from Canada

Hi there franadams, we do understand how disappointing and frustrating it may be when a product that has worked so well for you in the past is no longer available. It is never easy for us to make the decision to discontinue any of our products. The next closest color in our current collection is the color 'vanity fairest'. We appreciate knowing what kind of color you would like to see back in our lineup! https://www.essie.com/nail-polish/enamel/pinks/vanity-fairest

Loved mademoiselle until you changed the color. It used to be a soft pale sheer shade of pink and now it looks like your other light pinks. Did you think no one would notice?
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 22 days ago
Hi there, we wish you could still see the results you were hoping for with the color 'mademoiselle'. It should be a sheer, pale pink. The production of our iconic shades has also advanced over the years – higher quality standards, pure color pigments, and new innovative ingredients allow for a better, more consistent product, but also can result in some color variation from the past.

Dislike! $10 for clumpy nail polish. It’s shiny and then dulls even after a top coat.

Hi there! Thank you for your feedback on the Voluminous Mascara in the black shade. We are sad to hear that you did not see the results you expected with this polish and you had clumping. We will share this information with our production and development teams, and we hope that you will continue to try and use our products in the future with satisfaction.

Lilannie - 1 month ago
Boatloads of love is a beautiful muted, creamy white. It’s not pink, not even slightly - more of a grayish undertone. It’s not iridescent - not at all even though the bottle looks like it. It’s very streaky - 3 coats for decent coverage. And it dries weird, almost like it’s old polish which sucks because I literally just bought this. Idk how well it wears but judging by the tiny bubbles forming and how long it’s taking to fully dry, I’m not hopeful. Super disappointing considering the price!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s a very beautiful color, two coats are enough to cover the nail and give it a beautiful shine. The scent is as usual but nothing strong. I’d use this for a fall vibe even though I don’t mind using this color for summer time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful deep red color of polish, so flattering on my nails! It dried very quickly also. I can’t vouch yet on how chip resistant it is but hoping it lasts.

Hello kaylees112. Thank you for sharing some personal feedback and your pic showing your great mani with the color ' bahama mama'. This warm deep plum is a this rich, tropical beauty that works any season...but your mani looks more than ready for summer!

Most watery nail polish I have ever used. I understand the "sheer finish" but this polish is literally like water. It is so thin it doesn't even paint on and it pools/runs off of my nails. I'd really love a refund on this one.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 2 months ago
Hello Daniegirl., thank you for sharing your experience with the color 'ballet slippers'. There is something very wrong with the bottle you purchased and we would love to learn more. Every essie nail enamel should flow on easily and by the second coat your color should be perfect! If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

Beautiful, rich color but was very thick and left bubbles and smudged easily for much longer than it should have due to the thickness of the polish.
