This is my favorite bottle of nail polish EVER. It's a beautiful must have turquoise polish for turquoise suckers like me. It's the perfect turquoise, which is not too green and not too blue, and looks surprisingly flattering on me, as bright colors might sometimes make our hands look darker...
Most of all, unlike most greens and blues, this one DOES NOT STAIN nails! I've have quite a few blues and greens sitting in my stash forever just because I don't want to stain my nails although I love those colors. I was a little hesitated with this one for the same reason, and was thinking about just getting the mini size bottle, but I'm glad that I've finally decided to go full size after seeing some bloggers commenting about the stain-free formula of this baby.
Also, this one applies like a dream and if you're careful enough, you can get away with just one thick coat... I'm just so in love with it. Thanks Essie!

Beautiful turquoise color. It's a little darker than turquoise and calicos which is too cool for my nc42 complexion. Needed 3 coats to achieve opacity without streaks. Worth it in the end.

Great color! I find that a lot of Essie polishes dry with a sort of half glossy, half matte kind of finish. So weird. This color, however, dries glossy. I can get away with not wearing a top coat with it. The color is so versatile. It's perfect for spring and summer, but you could pair it with copper/brown in the fall or silver sparkles in the winter. Love it!

Awesome. Awesome color. Awesome wear time. I'm a nail polish picker, and this has worn like iron on my nails for a week with only a tiny chip.

I really love this colour on my nails. It is very unusual, quite tempted to say a 'frosty' shade of turquoise, that probably makes no sense though! But it is really good if you're looking for a nice pop of unusual colour. I recieved several compliments upon wearing this particular polish, I used two coats and put a silver glitter polish over the top, to give it that winter feel, and it works really well. When you apply a coat of clear nail varnish over the top it literally stays put and does not budge, no chips at all, so that was definitely a bonus point. Would definitely recommend and buy again.

This is as good as it gets as far as Essie goes. Their formulas are soo inconsistent but this one goes on like a dream and looks beautiful. Gets lots of attention, total eyegrabber.
ETA: Last time I used this, it lasted an entire week with only one tiny tip chip.

I haven't used any other color on my nails this winter, a total favorite! The color is simply amazing and it works quite well with my fair skin. It is a cool blue with a hint of cadmium yellow which makes it not too warm-not to cool shade, perfect for the winter months. A bit streaky on the first coat but perfect on the second, tried a third coat once but was unnecessary as it got too thick, two is perfect. I love Essie polishes and this one is my absolute favorite!

This is one of my favorite nail purchases of 2012. Layered under a gold flake top coat, it's even prettier!
A lot of people seem to like the Tiffany Blue color, and there are tons of similar shades, but over the years I've resisted them all, thinking that, for one reason or another, they just didn't work with my skin tones. (for example, I think ChG's For Audrey is too warm/yellowish for me)
Where's my Chauffeur came along, and I caved. Is it a Tiffany Blue? Robin's egg blue? I'm not sure, all I know is that I find it very wearable.
My skin tones have a lot of pink, and what isn't pink tends towards a fish-belly whiteness in winter, FWIW.

Essie usually makes a great nail polish, but this one went on too thick and chipped early. The shade caught my eye at the store, but I do think there are better turquoise options out there.

I saw this as part of Essie's winter collection, and it was so pretty that I had to buy it, along with Butler Please. I'm pretty impressed with this polish. The formula isn't the best of the Essie polishes I've tried upon application. It's somewhat goopy, though matte. It pools a little in my cuticle area, and isn't the smoothest polish. However, it stayed on my nails really well without chipping. I use seche vite on top of my polish, usually my nails get chipped at work, however they stayed perfect.
