Essie It's Genius

Tuesday, October 1, 2013


I would like to apologize for not having my favorites post up as it should be. I was writing it during these past few days, but I am dissatisfied with the photography. I will have the post ready later in the week once I retake the pictures. It's been a really hectic past few days so it feels good to be back on the blogging scene. I had noticed that my nail polishes that I was using didn't exactly scream "Autumn". I dug deep in my drawers and discovered "It's Genius" by Essie.
It is a beautiful violet/burgundy color with gold shimmer. The formula is thin yet very opaque. I can get away with only one coat, but I prefer two so the polish lasts longer and hides the awful condition my nails are in. "It's Genius" is very easy to wear. I had previously mentioned being unimpressed with Essie, but I think it was because the nail polish I had used was old and the formula became runny. This is a newer polish I picked up during the summer so it's consistency is really good. I think I will be using more Essie polish for this Autumn season.
                            What nail polishes are you using for A/W? Any recommendations?

    I love Essie polishes! I too have been STILL wearing summery colors. Hard to really feel like getting into the Fall spirit when it's 89 degrees outside! I gotta go dig around my polish drawer also.
