I am one of the biggest supporters of the Essence brand. This is because on a student budget (and any budget for that matter), they provide products of extremely high quality and variety. There nail polish are amazing. The range is just amazing! So many colour to choose from. I find that the nail polishes last around 5-7 with no /small chips. If you are like me who just love changing nail colour frequently, I would highly recommend Essence nail polish as you are spoiled with choose and it won’t break the bank.

I love these nail polishes! I have too many than I care to admit to. They work wonderfully with their gel nail base and top coat. It lasts longer than you would expect for the price you pay and the great thing is that it comes in so many different shades

So in love with Essence’s range of colours these days. There’s a colour to suit any mood, any day. Apart from the variety available, the price is phenomenal. The size and cuteness of the curvy bottle is easy to use anywhere and the width of the brush makes applying coats of nailpolish practically without any smudges.

Essence nail polishes are honestly a god send. They dry up quickly making them the perfect product for busy women whi are always on the go. They have an amazing colour pay off and the shine gives you that fresh, straight of a manicurist table look. The colours stay on your nails for long without chipping and the wide brush make the nails polishes easy to apply. The size of the bottle price (they are so affordable) and consistency of the nail polish is without a doubt my favourite thing about the nail polish. there is nothing more annoying and disappointing than opening your favorite nail polish only to find lumpiness and goopiness, with essence you are guaranteed none of that.

I received colour 115 redvolution as a gift and my oh my this nail polish is great. I was skeptic at first but now that I used it a few times am truly loving the quick drying effect and most importantly the price!! I started a YouTube Channel for this reason to inform people of great beauty and fashion on a budget because you can easily buy ten of these colours without braking the bank. I would advise anyone to go out and buy it, it’s worth every cent and your nails will truly appreciate it #stretchthatcurrency with essence.

I just love all these polishes. The packaging is super cute, they are affordable so you can buy more than one at a time, and there’s such a wide range of colors it’s hard to just pick one- so you kinda have to buy more:) It stays on my nails nicely and I love the shine and finish. For the price and quality it should get 6 stars!

I have bought the Essence The Gel Nail Polish called “a Whisper in Spring” ,The Gel Nail Polish Base Coat & Top Coat. This product works without the lamp, that’sin the past! Now it’s as simple as a Base Coat, colour and a Top Coat.
This special nail polish formula provides nails with an amazing gel shine. The innovative colour technology offers intensive colour and perfect coverage, giving you an incredible finish. I have tested this combination for a week.
Let’s start with how to apply them. First you apply the gel nail polish base coat on your nails and let it dry completely. The consistency of the base coat is slightly thicker than normal and it takes some time to dry out completely and it gives matte like finish to your nails. After base coat I have applied 2 coats of Essence The Gel Nail Polish a Whisper of Spring. This is a simple but beautiful light purple colour and it’s a lovely colour to wear in Spring that are on the way! It dries quickly and you don’t have to wait longer in between 2 coats. The brush is very handy and glides evenly on nails. Once your nail polish is completely dry apply thin layer of top coat. The consistency is optimal. Neither too thin nor too thick. Base coat and top coat are easy to apply. Once you apply top coat on your nails, it adds lovely gloss to your nails. Even light purple gel nail polish has its own very good shine but adding thin layer of top coat seals your nail polish and prevents chipping on nails for more days.
So now let’s see how long the nail polish really have stayed down. On third day I had two chips on my right hand nails as I do my work that involves a lot of typing, cooking, etc… with the right hand, but myleft hand nail polish was still there and no chipping on nails. Then on fifth day my left hand nail tips looked a little worn but they were not looking so bad and still my nails were glossy like the first day.
According to me 4-5 days wear is really good. If you are not doing any home work then I think it will last longer!
I was very excited to try the Gel Lacquer of essence. Mainly because you do not need LED lamp for the application. The paint lasts quite longer and has a nice gel-look finish with a beautiful shine. I am already looking forward to the other shades and am definitely going to try one or the other colours.
