Perfect holiday red

I love essie nail polishes; they go on smooth and dry quickly. My nails will stay flawless for up to a week with no chips or breaks. This shade was the perfect red for the holiday season.

Love

I tried a red Essie nail polish recently, and I’m OBSESSED! The color is sooo rich and vibrant, it’s literally perfect for everything—from a casual day out to a fancy dinner.
The brush is amazing—flat and wide enough to make the application super easy and smooth. The formula? Perfection. It goes on evenly, no streaks, and gives full coverage in just one coat (though I always do two for that extra pop).

This color is gorgeous and sexy. It has an ultra shiny finish. This polish is quite chip-resistant and stayed on extremely well to the point that it was kind of hard removing it.

Smooth application, self-leveling glossy finish
a year ago
It was easy to paint on a perfect coat, I did 2 coats of the Forever Yummy red and 2 of the Essie Stay Longer topcoat I got from Ulta. I like to double up on my topcoats because of the harsh hand sanitizer at work. This classic, elegant shade of red was perfectly flattering to my cool olive skin.

The perfect red polish!
a year ago
It’s always so hard to find the perfect red nail polish that I feel like compliments my skin tone, but I finally found the one & it’s Forever Yummy! I apply two coats & it’s the perfect cool, blue toned red. The formula is wonderful & isn’t streaky, so one coat would suffice but I love the way two coats looks.
