7 Essie Polish Shade Names We Identify With on a Personal Level

Not sure about you, but the name of this nail polish had us before we even saw the color. Baguette Me Not is from the summer 2017 collection, which is made up of patisserie-inspired polishes. This one is a sweet lilac with hints of pink undertones.

Spring and summer generally equal bold color. Berried Treasures — a bright berry shade — is the perfect summery substitution for red and best paired with a frozen beverage of your choice.

This subtle, shimmering sand-colored polish will have you dreaming of tropical getaways and those blissful vacation moments when you get to drink a pina colada out of a coconut.

If bright nail colors are more your style, try this shimmery magenta shade named Jamaica Me Crazy. An Essie reviewer named Brookee raves, “perfect purpley-pink shade with a hot pink shimmer. I simply love this shade...works for all seasons on both fingers and toes! Also pairs exceptionally well with Bahama Mama as the top coat. It has a fun personality for the weekend and a crispness befitting of the office on Monday morning.”

Passport to Happiness is from the 2016 Essie bridal collection of pastels, and is ideal for your first spring manicure of the season. It’s a toned-down mint color with a very fine pearly finish that’s sure to get you excited for warmer weather.

Everyone needs a white nail polish in their collection, and Sweet Souffle —a creamy white color with a golden glow — is the answer. “Got this color for my last pedicure at the nail salon. Love the iridescence, opaqueness and subtlety of the color,” comments Jostock.
