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 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.

    submitted bypajnails - 5 years ago
  • A: yes i ordered the purple and mine was dark dark purple

    submitted bygiginails - 4 years ago
  • A: I'm not sure why it doesn't match up. The color I received was sage/ grey not teal at all.

    Very beige. I wish it had a bit more of a pinky/peachy hue. The photos on real hands look more true to the actual colour; the photos of the Essie jar look a lot more pink than it actually is.

    Hello Jennyfromtheblock. Thank you for sharing your results with color 'topless & barefoot'. While we describe this color as a soft beige pink, we appreciate knowing you would prefer something similar with a bit more pink.

    Mademoiselle has Changed for the Worse

    1 out of 5 stars
    SamMJ - 2 months ago
    originally posted on essie.com
    Recently picked up a new bottle of this polish. It has been my favorite for manicures for many years. But, I was so disappointed and heartbroken upon application. It's not the same color - the delicate semi-sheer look is gone. It no longer replicates a clean, natural nail. It was just tacky looking. I'm not sure who would want their nails to look like this. I get that sometimes colors are adjusted but why mess with a classic like Mademoiselle? This is no longer the clean, classic, elegant polish that it once was.
    1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 1 month ago
    Hello SamMJ. Thank you for sharing your experience with the color ' Mademoiselle '. We want to understand what happened just as much as you do. This color should be a milky sheer pink 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

    Too thick and hard to paint with unless you want to flood your cuticles. Polish takes forever to dry and almost seems old, due to the thickness. I do love the color, though.
