essieNail Polish Collection - Go Glnza (4983) 13.5ml

I got 2 nail polish of the same color, which is a nice surprise since the color looked so good on my skintone. For reference of my skin tone: I'm a light medium olive tone middle Eastern color, hopefully you got the picture lol. But honestly, this color is the only pastel that looked so good on me. Definitely would recommend to my darker skin tone beauties.

I use Essie almost exclusively now because the quality of the nail polish has always been far and away better than other brands. I got these three on Amazon. I'm rating the one on the right. It's supposed to be "Go Ginza" which appears as a very light pink on the seller pictures. As you can see it's....beige. Not pink at all. Second, the nail polish is WATERY. The other Essie's I have are thicker, go on easier and dry quickly. This one is thin, watery, falls all over the place on the nail bed, and dries horribly. Not sure why there's such a discrepancy in quality (note: I bought each of these SEPARATELY, not all from one person). Could be a storage issue, an inferior color in the Essie line, or it's polish in the bottle was replaced. I don't know. I don't care, except to say this is useless to me.

It’s less purple than pictured, like a slightly lavender tinted white, but still pretty. Most of the time nail polishes this light in color require a lot of coats but with this one you could get away with just one coat. It wasn’t the color I was trying to buy but it’s a nice color.

Love it. But it looks more like a purple pastel than a pink.

Beautiful color!! Seriously gorgeous, but it’s not as easy to apple as OPI (which is my go-to polish), this feels a bit thick. Not sure if my particular bottle had been sitting too long unsold or what, but it was hard to paint my toes with it. Also, because it’s a thick white base, it’s hard to give yourself a good looking pedicure unless you’re an expert and have all the right tools to fix mess ups. Absolutely love the color though.
