blogger Liz Breygel shares her beauty review and shows the pastel green spring nail look you can create with the nail polish by affordable european brand essence

Hi angels, how do you feel today? Do you remember my Essence nail polish haul where I showed you my top 4 nail polish picks from the new collection by Essence? Today I wanted to tell you a bit more about my favorite shade from the entire haul - a lovely pastel mint shade called '40 Play With My Mint'. It is a perfect spring-summer color, which is possible to wear casually or for a more special occasion.

The Essence gel nail polish has a special quick-dry formula, it is thick and creamy like any other gel nail polish, but you don’t need to own a special lamp to 'bake' it. It dries out very quickly to a gorgeous glossy finish. I love to apply an extra topcoat to make my manicure even more glossy and to last a little bit longer. 

'Play With My Mint' is opaque from the very first application, but I prefer to have an extra coat just to make the color more intense. The application of this nail polish is very smooth and comfortable, it isn't streaky at all. Thanks to its wide brush it is possible to cover almost the entire nail plate at once.

On my nails, Essence Gel Nail Polish stays for 2 days without chipping and I was rather disappointed with this fact. Especially because Essence claims that these polishes are long-lasting. I think that a special base coat and a top coat that retails on their website will help improve the durability of the 'gel nail polish', but it is still kind of sad. I don't like the fact that I need to own something more for a perfect manicure. But I'm still loving the entire Gel Nail Polish collection by Essence because the colors are simply adorable. What is your favorite nail polish at the moment?

Lots of love,
Liz
