The Review: Essie Splash of Grenadine







I have been reunited with my favourite polish. I bought Essie Splash of Grenadine a while back, used it once and fell in love. Unfortunately, it took an ill fated turn off the balcony (long story) and met it's end on the pavement. It's taken me so long to track it down since it was always out of stock, but now it's back in my possession and I love it. 





I should point out this photo was taken four days after I first applied it, and there's only one chip. One. After four days.





This stuff applies like a dream, it's  thick enough that one coat is opaque, and it's glossy enough that you don't need to apply a topcoat (although I usually do)





The colour looks different depending on the light, it's basically a lilac with a shot of blue toned fuchsia running through it. It's a colour that I would hate on anything else but I just LOVE as a nail polish!





I love the polishes in the Essie diffusion line, they aren't too pricey and the brush is just the best!





What's your favourite polish right now?

  3. I've been resisting getting this shade for too long now. Essie's Cute as a Buttons on my nails right now, I've gone through far too many bottles of that stuff! x
