Great color, not for those on the go

9 years ago
Ok, I LOVE this shade of burgundy/wine/berry/oxblood.... But it took three coats. I've encountered several Essies that do, but they are usually pastels or light colors. It's a fantastic formula, but if you don't have the time to do three coats, just get a similar color creme. The payoff is definitely worth it for me though. Very shiny, very long lasting, very witchy.

Im from Mauritius, Finally Essie nail Polish are available in Monoprix shop. But we don't have a wide choice of colors like on page unfortunately. Concerning the berry naughty, i got 100% satisfactory, it a long lasting nail polish, i wear it everyday. it really match my tan skin. I received lot of compliment concerning my nails. moreover removing it is really easy and it does not leave that yellow mark on nails. Please try to have a shop in Mauritius.

A perfect, vampy red for fall!

11 years ago
I have tried many different red nail polishes from various brands in a search for the perfect deep, dark red wine color that's always in for the fall season. This one remains at the top of my list! The formula is incredible, the color is absolutely knock-out gorgeous, and it's buildable, but not sheer. Two coats won't make it look black (an issue I've had with other nail polishes this shade), but one coat won't leave it too sheer. I'm someone who is always changing nail colors, but if I had to limit myself to two or three nail colors per season, this would be my go-to for the fall. I'm in love with this color!

Perfect Plum!

Are you kidding? I went to the store looking for the perfect fall nail color, and this one practically jumped off the shelf and onto my nails. I tried a pedi first- it makes my toes look so glamorous! Then for the hands: dark, and just enough rusty red, with a touch of plum. I can't take it off! My nails are sure to look amazing all fall...!
