Essie Treat, Love ,Color Metallics

keen on sheen, laced up lilac, got it golding on, glow the distance, finish line fuel, pep in your rep

 

New from essie  in their Treat Love and Color line is  a selection  of icy  metallic shades.

This is the first time I've tried this line and I was  excited  to do so as I have very dry nails that peel easily, almost  every time I polish them.  Treat Love and Color is supposed to help with this.  According to the brand they " deliver 65% less peeling and 35% less breakage in a breathable formula with collagen and camellia extract "

It's a 3in 1 formula, meaning top, color and bottom coat alltogether. So you know, time saving too. Plus I love metallics, so it's  a win win.

There are  8 shades in all. I love all of them but the bronzes are my favs. They  all go on lighter than the bottle color and need 2 coats for best coverage.  So these aren't the boldest, most molten metallics. More subtle and muted with a soft focus look that's very pretty.

I've done my nails twice  with a TLC,once each week and came away very happy with the results.  First week I had no peeling or breaking. Second week one nail peeled a little. That's much better than usual. The color holds up well too. I had only  minor tip wear the end of 6 days and for me that's very good. I am very hard on  my nail tips. And they dry and set pretty fast so combine that with the 3 in 1 makes these great for quick manis. 

 Essie treat love and color nail polishes are $ 10 at essie.com and wherever the brand is sold.

essie Winter 2011- Cocktail Bling

essie's winter nail polish collection will hit stores in October. The colors are inspired by precious gems worn when hobnobbing at holiday cocktail parties.

essie Fall 2011

essie's  fall collection is based around the love of  classic handbags with names like Carry On and Power Clutch. The shades are all cremes, mostly subdued , polished looking and ladylike. They're also very fall like.

My favorites are Carry On, a deep wine and simply pretty, Glamour Purse, an almond shade  as I love nudes  and beiges and this is not quite nude but a bit deeper and Very Structured , the most unexpected shade here as it's rust.

 I bet rust is one you don't have in your stash. In my considerable stash of polish going back, yes, 20 years I can think of one orange- rust frost, and one toffee with a hint of rust, Toffee Twist from Revlon.  They are out there I am sure but it's just not a shade you see a lot of. I don't think it's one that everyone will gravitate to either, but I like it because it's different, it matches my coloring and not everyone else will be wearing it. It's also very fall and very 70's feeling to me.

I hope to get some images of a few shades on my nails soon, but I can tell you that they run very color true to what's in the bottle .  For now we  have the whole new line in their bottles to ogle.

Shade list:

-Carry On- mulberry merlot
-Glamour Purse- almond Blush
-Case Study-camel beige
-Power Clutch-darkest green
-Very Structured-burnt sienna
-Lady Like -demure pink
