Essie - First Dance

Typically, I am not a fan of reds. This one, though, I am okay with. Which is a bit of a surprise, because Essie and I kind of have a love/hate relationship. Of every Essie I try, I either love it or hate it, and I've only found 2/6 that I like a lot, sadly (not including this one).

I prefer reds that have a blue undertone to them, and aren't too tomatoey, so this one definitely works for me! It's opacity is amazing, but being a mini, the brush pretty much sucks as is usual with minis.

Unfortunately, I haven't had a lot of time for intricate nail art in the past 4 months, but hopefully I will once the itty bitty starts sleeping for longer stretches at a time, and I am done with school (in May and I can't wait)! I've been in school for the past 19 years of my life. I am more than ready to be out for a while!


That little face is definitely worth missing out on some nail art, though! :)

OHMG such a little sweetheart - she is too cute :)
On the reds I agree, I prefer the ones with a slight blue tone...

Thanks! :) If they don't have a blue undertone, they're just too orange for me!
Aww, she's so cute! :)
And a nice red ;)

I'm ready for her to get bigger so I have ten more fingers to paint! Haha
I think First Dance is so gorgeous! But it's nothing compared to your little sweetie <3

Thanks!! ^.^ She's 4 months. It's crazy how much she's already grown in that small amount of time!
This red is so gorgeous! I have been collecting reds lately. She's gorgeous!

Thanks! I wish I liked reds more. They are pretty, but I just feel like they're too old for me or something.

Thank you thank you!
I can say I am an Essie Fan. They make some of my best nail polishes. Red shades are always good for most skin tones and nails. So with red you cannot go wrong. First dance is great. But I also like their Classic red because it looks fantastic on my short nails.

Your daughter looks cute. May be time to start her on the Piggy paint nail polish :D :D :D

Thank you for your comment! :) She's got her own nice little collection going so far. She'll often take mine that I no longer want haha!
