Essie

Ok, so have just painted my toe nails with the Essie nail varnish on my finger nails. This will be the ultimate test in my opinion of how chip-proof it is. :D

I forgot to mention before how I came across this product and the colour, etc. All key details I believe for a blog like this.
So yes, I cam across this product by sheer accident; in the Daily Telegraph - the newspaper my family gets - there was a voucher for August's edition of Tatler for only £1. Bargain reading, and I do like a bit of Tatler every now and then. Anyway, bought the magazine and had the choice of 4 different colour nail varnishes with it which were freebies. Always good.
Anywho, I chose the colour "Great Expecations" as the others were all tones of red, 2 of which were similar to ones I already own by other names.
Great Expectations is a beautiful grey colour, very subtle and can be very sheer with just a couple of layers of, or extra bold with a few layers.
The names of many of the Essie colours are quite odd, but wonderful none the less, and oddly descriptive of the colour they contain.
Definitely a name to keep an eye out for.
