Blanc is a true white polish, not sheer and completely opaque. Now personally I love wearing white polish, I know to some it looks trashy but hey, I like what I like. White nail polishes are notorious for being thick, uneven to apply and requiring a lot of coats to even out streaks, but with Blanc all you need is 2-3 thin coats. It dries pretty fast with a shiny finish. I thought Orly 'White Out' was a great white polish, but Essie blows it right out of the water in terms of application and speed of drying.

Essie Blanc is an essential. It's a classic white, applies smoothly, dries evenly and resists against chips. The packaging is attractive and the brush works very well. Essie can count me as fan. I also recommend Really Red, Licorice and one of their many fun seasonal colors!

The downside is the price but the quality seems to overshadow the cost :)

I bought Blanc on a whim, and it's a very nice opaque white. Gives nails a clean, pretty look in about 2 coats. Brush was easy to work with - would repurchase when I run out.

I've only used this for french manicures but its the best white polish I've used. It isn't streaky and it's more opaque that any other white polish I have had.

My favorite white polish. It is completely opaque in two coats, and does not appear streaky. It makes my nails look very clean, and classic.

I have been looking for this nail polish everywhere since I was really in the mood for "white out" colored nails. I had a hard time finding this and finally found it at a local beauty supply for around $6.75. The polish is the exact color I was expecting - a true "white out" white. However, I was never actually able to wear this color because of several issues I was having with it. First of all, it is extremely streaky and requires about 2-3 coats to look opaque. Second, it takes FOREVER to dry. Third, even after waiting for so long for it to dry, my nails still have that gummy feeling to them and if I accidently knock my nails into something or something gets on them, the nail polish is completely ruined. I like doing my nails but I have absolutely no patience for this polish. I think I would have to wait at least an hour for it to completely dry and not become ruined.

This is a bright clean glossy white.It's opaque after 2 coats but sometimes I need to do 3 coats. It's pretty on ur entire nail and it's perfect for nail art( zebra stripes & polka dots are my favs). Love it and will repurchase, a good white polish is a staple for me.

I got Essie Blanc from a store in my neighbourhood. I've gotten more expensive nail polishes but when I saw the label I was just a bit surprised on the price. Don't be fooled by that! It's absolutely amazing! It doesn't clump, it dries quickly, it's easy to use and it's absolutely beautiful. If you want to designs or tips or just paint your entire nail white, no matter what, BLANC is perfect for it! Definitely recommend it.

I've always loved opaque white nails. It's sexy and glam. This shade is a pure clean white and looks so good against tan skin.

Easily the best white polish out there. Very opaque, but applies thin. Fun for a full-nail color or a very striking French mani/pedi.

This is a nice, opaque, pure white. I need to use two coats because the first coat is a litte streaky and uneven, but it's not any more difficult to apply than a normal polish. White's tend to be a pain, but this one is pretty good.

This color is Marshmallow's sassy mod sister. I use it for solid white nails, and it is by far the most opaque white polish of its consistency. It is AS opaque as OPI alpine snow, but thinner and much easier to work with.



Whites will always be hard to apply perfectly but let me tell you, this is AS GOOD AS IT GETS.
