NOTD: Essie Full Steam Ahead

Lately I've been into super light nails. I'm not sure why, because we're in the lovely season of fall where black and burgundy come out to play...Anyways, I chose to polish my tips with Essie's Full Steam ahead that I got in my Blackbox by CULT Cosmetics a few months ago. Full Steam Ahead is a gorgeous lavender with some silver shimmer. It has a sheer and semi-streaky first coat, but the second coat evens it out nicely.I'm very happy with the formula of this color as well. I have quite a few Essie polishes, but I feel like no one talks about their polishes having a good formula. It is all relative to what base/top coat you use...I may have to do a blog post on that! Also...pardon my cuticles. I got a manicure and feel like they haven't looked good since!What's on your nails right now?**This post contains products that I have received for free– for more information, please read my Disclosure Policy**
