My 1st Youtube Video


Essie Vs the other Brands



The other day night I was a little bit bored and I decided to polish my nails. So, I walk in my beauty room to decide what color to use. A couple of days ago i purchased from CVS a couple of Essie Brand nail polishes because the color really caught my attention. So i decided to open it up and give it a try.

OMG!!!!! was I in for a surprise. I wasn't expecting it to apply so smoothly and dry as fast! I am in love with this brand on the 1st try. See, what I have been using before was NYC, Wet N Wild and L.A. Colors (being chic for cheap). I can definitely tell the difference in the brands. Maybe, just maybe, the price does matter with this. Essie was about $8 and I really didn't want to pay that amount for it, but of course I argued with myself and I did (WTG!!!). As far as the other brands they range between $1.00-$1.99.

Sooooo... what's the difference you ask? A whole LOT!!!! LOL. With the Essie Brand the Nail polish was much thicker and easier to apply. I only needed one coat, but I applied 2 coats out of habit. Essie applied so smoothly and it dried super fast! I was in utter shock! ( I am holding the bottle and blowing kisses at it) . With NYC Brand, it's to watery! I have to really wipe as much of the polish off the brush before I apply it to my nails. I also have to apply about 2-3 coats to get the color payoff that I am really looking for. The bottle says quick dry, but that is a quick lie! SMH!!! The same applies for Wet N Wild. Now with L.A. Colors, my only complaint would be that the polish chips super fast. The drying time is ok and the color pay off is great. I only need about 2 coats.

I am still amazed with Essie. I feel like I just have found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Hope you guys enjoy the read!
