Essie Nail Lacquer #162-Ballet Slippers 13,5 Ml

This is such a pretty color !! And this polish dried instant as long as you have the top coat !

Wow. This stuff is legit! Day 10 & still going. Gel manicures ruined my nails so I will never do them again. But regular polish, even expensive enamel, never makes it to day three. By the second day, it’s chipping and peeling, and looks horrible. I’m just in water too much, using my nails for everything, so it is not worth the trouble. BUT… I put this stuff on and 10 days later it still looked pretty good! It’s unbelievable. It didn’t start really coming off until I took it off. In the picture you can see a little wear at the ends of my nails and around the cuticles, where I picked at it. Also, the color - Perfect Posture, was a little too shockingly white-ish purple (Halloweenie, according to my son and friends), so I mixed in a little of a mauve Essie color called Take Me To Thread, also an Essie gel couture color. Other than prep my nails really well, the only other thing I did was add an extra topcoat on day three, thinking I might be able to get four or five days out of it. I never imagined I would get 10 days! No lie, people. This stuff is a game changer. For the first time since the start of the pandemic, I’m wearing polish again. My new favorite right now is a color called Tassel Free. Also including a picture of that on day 3 after application. (No 2nd topcoat).

Love this stuff! Glossy finish, dries fast, has good staying power!

Perfect green

This is fine, but less pink than the ballet slippers color I'm used to. This one is more white and, curiously, doesn't have the same number as the usual ballet slippers (unless they changed it recently). Still, fresh polish, so does the job.

I am beyond impressed with this product! I work in a lab setting where I am constantly washing my hands and taking my gloves on and off (I can go through a full box of gloves in a week), so only gel manicures have ever lasted more than one week. I am avoiding gel UV technology but still want a long lasting manicure. After all the positive reviews, I decided to try this product. This nail polish is absolutely worth the hype! It is so incredibly smooth and glossy, and looks like a professional UV manicure. And most importantly, the nail polish has not chipped at all! I do agree that the consistency is a bit thicker than regular nail polish, but the results are worth it.

Not Returnable! Terrible quality. 2 coats of color and 1 clear top coat and every nail tip was chipped by the next day. DO NOT BUY!

The color match prefect for what I needed

Absoluter Lieblingslack (nicht nur diese Farbe) Macht die Nägel nicht kaputt, hält super lange und trocknet schnell

The nail polish is really thick ( old?) and does shades. I had another colour from this brand and I keep coming back. Very disappointed with quality of the product.

I have become such a fan of Expressie as it goes on easily, the colours are amazing and it lasts quite well. It may not last as long as some others (base coat, nail polish then top coat) but you need one product and that's it. It doesn't get any better than this. This colour is more transparant that others but I quite like it and will look for more of these.

Nice colour

nice color, fast dry
