Essie is one of my favorite nail polish brands and their new spring collections, Not Red-y For Bed ($8; ulta.com) and Dial It Up are both fabulous, color and formula wise. Not Red-y For Bed is a mix of gorgeous shades of reds, pinks, purples and nudes in a mix of shimmer and creme finishes. The creme finishes are one coaters and opaque in one single coat. The shimmers are smooth, easy to work with and dry quickly. The Expressie Dial It Up Collection ($9; ulta.com) features wearable pastels and metallics in a quick drying formula. The formula dries quicker than the regular Essie line and is just as smooth and easy to work with. The Dial It Up collection features a mix of shimmers, creams and a sheer jelly-like formula that can be used as a topcoat or by itself. Both Essie and Expressie have a wide brush that helps deposit color evenly, covering the entire nail in one or two strokes. Overall, I absolutely love these collections and the shade selection.
