Most Helpful Positive Review
In spite of the chips, I love it.
When I use this polish it barely lasts two days, but I just love the coppery shade so much that it does not matter. The chipping issue is popular with chrome like metallics like this one...just love it so much!

good as gold
Lovely shade that shifts between silver and gold, depending on the light. Just one problem: it starting chipping the first day. It literally peeled off one nail, in spite of the fact that I'd used both base and top coats. Reapplied it.... and the same thing happened again. Suggestions to make it mor...

A Beautiful and Buildable Pink
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Essie is tried and true for a reason! Ballet Slippers is a timeless, sheer baby pink color that works for everyone. I love how buildable it is. One application is a sheer, natural, shiny look while 2-3 coats gives a milky pink shine. It dries surprisingly quick as well which is great when you're on the go!

Cute Color I Would Buy It Again
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This color is very cute! It does take a few coats for it to show the true color and not be streaky but after the 2/3 coat the color and coverage is perfect. Because of all the coats I did it does take a while to dry.

Not my favorite nail polish!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've gotta be honest, this wasn't my favorite nail polish. It brushed on nicely, but the color was too light and took too many layers and I don't have the patience to wait for that many layers to dry in-between! Overall it seems pretty decent quality, but the shade just wasn't dark enough.

I going to buy this product again and again
Essie Ballet Slippers is a beautiful soft pink polish that gives a clean, elegant, and natural look. The formula applies smoothly, dries quickly, and lasts several days without chipping when used with a good base and top coat. It's perfect for everyday wear, French manicures, or any occasion where you want a timeless, classy finish. Highly recommended!

I've been really enjoying this Essie nail polish.
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been really enjoying this Essie nail polish. The formula goes on smoothly, dries fairly quickly, and gives a beautiful, even finish. I love this soft nude shade because it matches everything and makes my nails look clean and polished. It lasts several days without chipping when I use a top coat, and it's become one of my go-to colors for an effortless everyday manicure. I would definitely repurchase it!
