Essie - Leading Lady




Essie 'Leading Lady' - £7.99


I was opening my mail the other day when I came across an envelope from Boots. Inside was a voucher for £2 off Essie nail polish in Boots stores. Advertised was a few colours including this one which I immediately loved. 

I popped in town today after work as I had ran out of foundation (which meant using my 'for special occasions only' Estee Lauder Double Wear for WORK...no!) Whilst in there I spotted this on the shelf and remembered about the £2 voucher in my purse, so picked up a bottle.

I took it home and put it on my nails this evening and I am in love. It's so lovely! It reminds me of Dorothy's shoes from the Wizard of Oz. 
The main thing I love about it, is that it's a glitter polish but doesn't require a base colour beforehand, it paints a gorgeous deep red on your nails with tonnes of glitter packed in. I wish I'd have noticed this earlier as it's the perfect Christmas colour.
The Essie brush is perfect, I can apply the polish nice and neatly without any mistakes of getting it all over my fingers! Nightmare... 

I definitely recommend this from Essie, it's just become my favourite for the moment!

    1. I know, it's so good! It's always hit and miss with glitters 'cause I never know if it will need a base or not! xo
