Summer Colors By Essie

July 18, 2013

I think most of you already familiar with the Essie's Summer 2013 collection, but just in case you haven't seen it yet, I want to share with you some pics I took of my favorite colors from this collection.
One of my nail polish buddies over seas surprised me with a package including these pretties, I was so happy to get these colors which I absolutely loved from first sight.

The collection includes 6 colors, I only got 4 of them, but I feel like I got the prettiest colors of this collection.
Here are the colors from Right to Left: The Girls Are Out, Bikini So Teeny (or Rock The Boat?), Sunday Funday and The More The Merrier.

The Girls Are Out - A purple magenta with silver shimmer

Bikini So Teeny (or Rock The Boat?) - Sky blue shade with subtle silver shimmer
[I've read before that Rock The Boat is very similiar to Bikini So Teeny from last summer's collection, it's a bit lighter and more shimmery than BST. When I got this color I had a feeling that the label and the content of the bottle were misplaced, so I borrowed Bikini So Teeny from a friend to compare the two, and it actually confirmed my assumption, so I'm going to swatch them both to show you the comparison. Bottom line is, I think I have Rock The Boat with the wrong label :)]

Sunday Funday - Bright coral with silver shimmer

The More The Merrier - Bright lime green creme

These colors are so bright and fun, I can't wait to wear them and show you the swatches. The shimmer is hard to notice in the bottles, but it's so pretty and makes the colors pop.

The formula is somewhat between a creme and a jelly, I think most of them will have good coverage with only two coats, but I will have to test this and let you know.
