Expressie ($9; target.com) is a new range of quick drying nail polishes by Essie. The shade range is just as nice as the regular Essie line and this formula is supposed to dry in about a minute. I found the brush to be pretty similar to the Essie brush - wide and dense, so it picks up color well and coats evenly. The formula on all the polishes I tested were smooth, bubble free, non-streaky and completely opaque in two coats. While they looked glossy by themselves, I did add a top coat to get better longevity. With a top coat, these wore a good 3 days with minimal chipping. Overall, I found the formula to be pretty similar to the regular Essie line, but these do dry within a minute and the opacity was a tad better so some of them are even one coaters. For swatches below, I did two thin coats!
