Essie - Going Incognito


(This is a scheduled post, I'm on vacation!)

Hello everyone! Today I'd like to show you Essie's Going Incognito from their 2010 winter collection. Since I have a weakness for everything blue, green and in between (teals and turquoises) it was no wonder that I needed this baby to be part of my collection. And that's how I ordered my first bottle of Essie.
Not only the color is wonderful in my opinion, so is the formula. It's smooth, easy to apply and with two coats you've got full coverage. However, and I'm pretty embarrased to say this, despite of its beautiful shade and nice application, this polish has been an untried for over six months and still is, since this was only a swatch. Other polishes just keep taking its spot. On the other hand, it is the middle of summer now and the color is more something for fall or winter. But gorgeous it is so I've got high hopes for Going Incognito once fall has arrived. I hope that's not too soon though, because I'm still enjoying summer waaay too much! See ya :)

  1. Lovely <3 I love a nice green on the nails. And yes the Essie formula is quite good isn't it?

  2. I know what you're talking about. I have a lot of polishes in my collection that I've been dying to get and haven't tried them yet. =) Looks great on you. Love the photos as well.

  8. Ohhh. I missed this one. I just started to follow Essie big time again now that it's so widely available. I had to do my homework on collections as well as commit to memory the color names like one does when you really want to follow a brand. I know some are upset that Essie sold to L'Oreal. Myself, I have liked the shades I got this year and since I live in a rural area, it's a treat to go into our lone Rite Aide and actually see a polish that I would want to buy!

  10. Thank you for your comments ladies!

    @Veronica, Bea and Solana: Thanks so much for the awards! I truly appreciate it!

    @beachgal: I didn't like Essie just a year ago, but it's really catching up these days! I can imagine what a treat it must be each time you visit the Rite Aide!
