I LOVE being a girl and since the moment I found out I was having a daughter, there have been certain girly things I have looked forward to sharing with her. Barbies, dress up, make up, princess movies! Painting nails is definitely one of those special girly things we love to do together! She looks forward to choosing her nail color and getting her nails painted; it is such special time for us to spend together talking, singing, and just being together.“For more than 30 years, essie has been an industry icon, trusted by beauty professionals, celebrities and even royalty – an American classic that allows women all over the world to express themselves and have fun with color and whimsical names. When it comes to the guaranteed professional, high-quality manicure standard, essie nail polish is the go-to brand.” ~essie
We are extra lucky and one of Ava’s grandmas works in a salon specializing in nails {manicures/pedicures}. For our birthdays she gifted both of us a treat in her shop! Ava chose a manicure and I chose a pedicure. When we were choosing our colors, she had quite a collection of essie nail polish. I had never used this polish before but she swears by it and told me it is her favorite brand! I loved the variety of colors offered and ended up choosing a bright orange for my toes! Well, it stayed on so well, no chipping and fading like I’ve experienced with other polishes.I was thrilled to receive two different collections of essie nail polish to review and we have been using them non-stop since their arrival! The colors are vibrant and paint on smooth and even. I always paint two coats and that gets a great vivid color and stays on with no chipping for such a long time! Ava loves the Poppy Razzi collection we were sent, full of bright pinks and orange tones! She can’t seem to choose one favorite, so she usually ends up with Poppy Razzi Rainbow nails . Poppy Razzi is inspired by the neon fever sweeping the runways, magazine covers and celebrity fashions; definitely in right now! I also love the love the bright Poppy Razzi Collection, but am also a huge fan of the Yogaga Collection we were sent. This collection includes 6 monochromatic nail colors all from a nice neutral palette. They are gorgeous and my favorites right now! The set includes colors ranging from taupe to pink to purple to deep red!
