This is from the recent Essie North Fork collection and another dupe of MAC Peppermint Patty. I love this. It compliments my skintone nicely and I’m very impressed with it staying power and I’ve put my hands through a lot over the past 48 hours.
Whilst it’s nice and summery, it did go on a lil’ streaky as I put on the first coat. I was a bit worried it’d turn out crap but with a bit of careful application, it redeemed itself and after 2 coats looked fab, with even coverage and with no streaks.
I’ve got high hopes that this will last me ’til the weekend with no blips.

hey, loving this polish, may have to pick some up tommorow, loving your blog by the way, Lou x

This looks lovely against your skin and very summery. You're fueling my nail varnish addiction, I really want to try some Essie polishes now! xxx
Thank Lou – yeah def check this shade out. It's lovely.
Loveaudrey – Thank you 🙂 Essie polishes are fab. The quality's really good. I order mine from http://www.transdesign.com I don't think int shipping is TOO high either (I order when I'm in NY).
