    I actually have no idea why I bought this... it was a totally random buy. I was drawn to it somehow because gray is a staple in my wardrobe (I really like my neutrals), but on my nails, that's...

    My favorite grayish taupe. Buying a second bottle while it's still widely available.

    the formula isn't bad, and i wanted to like this color a lot, but it just didn't work for me. i'm very pale with cool undertones, somewhat new to having nails (recently stopped biting!) and was...

    I should start out by saying that I love the Grey/Taupe nail trend. Chinchilly is such a stunning color!!! I think it works well as an all-season color. It makes everything else in my (large)...

    The problem with this color is the simple fact that it doesn't look good on everyone's skin. It's just not flattering on some skin tones and makes you look dead rather than alive. But if it's good...

    Liked the unique color but that's about it. For me it chipped on second day, with base and top coat, and formula is a bit like plastic when dry, which I don't like, and drying time is very...

    Love at first sight with this nail polish, and we lived happily ever after! I saw it, bought it, loved it. It was a taupe colour that I haven't seen before. The quality of Essie is great. Two...

    This was my first Essie polish, and after all of the hype, I was pretty disappointed. The color is a great taupey gray creme, but the actual formula comes out goopy and streaky for me. Even a good...

    I never would have bought this color if it weren't for a blog I read somewhere. I was going to buy either this or OPI's You Don't Know Jacques! Honestly, I thought You Don't Know Jacques! would...

    Pretty light gray creme that's pretty neutral on me. I don't see any obvious blue, taupe or green undertones, though swatched on white paper, there's a clear hint of taupe-green. It's a hazy,...

    YES!!! Love this colour. It's a light grey colour. Goes on nicely after about 3 coats, as others have said. I am generally not a big fan of essie because I find it overly expensive and too watery....
