Review: Essie's Mint Candy Apple

I had been wanting to get my hands on Essie's Mint Candy Apple for what seems like AN AGE and Mint green is definately one of my favourite colours on the nails for Spring and Summer so today i finally caved :)

Theres something about Boots and the way the Essie stand glares at you-its soo bright and i just stand there in awe and wonder at all the beautiful shades that stand before me...

Anyway, back to the Review! First of all, the packaging is very sleek with 'Essie' imprinted on the bottle which gives it quite a high end feel and the bottle also containes 15ml of product which matches OPI nail polishs but beats Nails Inc by 5mls.

The medium sized brush in the polish make the product a breeze to apply and as my nails are quite small i only needed a stroke or two to cover my nail completely. However, i would recommend to apply 2 coats as the first coat isnt quite opaque and the second coat makes all the difference!

The colour is definately an aqua minty green and is slightly darker than a pastel and i havent found a colour quite like it! It has a nice glossy finish but i like to follow up with my Seche Vite top coat to make the Polish last longer and prevent chipping. I would say that it is worth the £7.99 price tag and i would love to get more Essie polishes in the furure and sometimes Boots do a 3 for 2 on Makeup so keep your eyes peeled!
