Gorgeous pink coral, very spring and summer appropriate. Two coats give opaque coverage. And I love Essie brushes more than much wider OPI ones, thin brushes allow better control.

I have nothing bad to say about this polish. Goes days without chipping, applies smoothly and is opaque with 2 coats. If you like bright corals, I can't recommend this enough.

i have been hankering after this colour for some time & even though i really like it, i find it far too close a colour to the OPI feelin hot hot hot that i already have.
its darker than said OPI colour (more watermelon colour) & vibrant for spring & summer but it doesnt wow me as much as i thought it would.
applies well & is opaque after 2 good coats & dries to a lovely glossy finish.
highly recommended.

Peach Daiquiri is my a staple in my polish collection. It's a gorgeous hot pink color that leans a bit coral in the right lighting. The finish is very shiny and while the polish is not a true jelly, it has some squishyness to it on the nail.

I always reach for this color because it is a bright, problem-free polish. Application is a breeze and the color is opaque with two coats. The dry time on this polish alone is a bit long, but your favorite fast-dry topcoat should solve that problem. My wear time on this polish has always been good. Currently I have it on my nails and it is chip free after 4 days of wear.

I haven't found another bright pink that I love more than this color so I think I'd repurchase it, however if something else comes along, I might change my mind.

This is your run of the mill hot pink nail color. The consistency is fine and so is dry time, but the color is so ordinary that I hardly use it. I could put it in with my bin of pink nail polishes and it becomes just another boring bottle.

Gorgeous, bold, hot coral colour. I adore this on my toes. Opaque in 2 generous coats and not streaky. No chips. Wear time is AMAZING. I've had it on 10 days so far and I'm only removing it today to give my nails a breather, they are totally immaculate.


If I could give halves, this one would be a 4.5 / 5. Not a 5/5 because I reserve that for HG stuff and nail polish, for me, will never be an HG item.

Very cute, fun, flattering color for Spring and Summer. It looks very hot pink with my skin tone, nothing peachy about it.

This is a coral color, definitely not peach. Creamy finish with no shimmer. I love using this color for a summer pedicure. A definite repurchase.

I usually like really light pinks but I decided to give this color a try. Love it!!! It's very fun and bright, perfect for summer. Only needed one coat (make sure to put a clear top coat to help prolong wear and prevent chipping). It looks the best on my toes for that summery look. Also tried putting Sephora's OPI Silver Blasted over it and it looks great.

i love this color but it was not what i expected. the color looks a little red at 1st but after a while i got used to it. i do really like this color and i love essie. something simular but more of a pink would be cute as a button.

I just finished painting my nails this color and thought I needs to reviewed this product. All I needed was one full coat !. The color thats in the bottle is what you get on your nails. This is my first Essie nail polish and compare to Sinful colors, which I used before this, this polish beats it ! I'm def going to be purchasing more colors and hopefully there all are amazing as this one. The drying time was pretty quick, but I really didn't pay it any attention The pricing of the polish is probably too much for a nail polish but I'm still planning to get more and would recommend to anyone .

I absolutely love this color! It's a nice coral color- great for the summer! I have read some of the other reviews that said that 2 coats were required, I only needed one for the full effect. Its an easy application and dries fairly quick and smoothly

I would definitely recommend this to a friend!

I'm currently wearing this color on my toes and the coral color looks cute and summery against my skin. The name did throw me off because I thought it would read peach, but coral's nice too and I needed a coral polish in my collection. So far there are no chips, even though I used no top coat or base coat. Two coats are needed.

Loving this color so far! I went searching for a shade that matched dita's dress in this picture: http://tinyurl.com/3tsdh4s and i think i got pretty darn close.

Peach daiquiri is a real shape-shifter of a color. in natural light, it seems to have a blue-based hot pink tinge, with that "cherries in the snow"-esque brightness. In incandescent light, it's a definite orange/peachy coral. It's very flattering on my super-pale neutral-toned skin. I think the contrast between my skin and the color is enough that it reads like a very youthful red, rather than peach. It's awesome on both fingers and toes.

I've only had it on for two days, but it's 100% intact. We'll see after a week how it goes. The formula is one of my favorite cremes - it's thin, opaque, and very lacquery, not at all goopy or heavy.

Only complaint is that the cap on the bottle I bought was smashed to pieces, only held together by the price sticker. Ugh! My fault for not checking it.

Cute, but honestly it's getting too popular. I was sitting in class and noticed that I, as well as three other girls, were wearing the same color (or at least very close dupes). It's a dark, reddish pink with some orange undertones. I must say it looks much nicer in the bottle and comes out a bit darker than I would've liked on the nails. Still, not bad, but there are more unique dark pink colors out there. I like it, but I'm not extremely impressed.

I really love this color in the bottle, but it wasn't as bright as I had hoped which probably sounds silly considering so many people have complained that it's too bright. I also found it too be more orange than pink as others have described so I'm wondering if somehow my particular bottle is a little off. For some reason it looks darker on my nails than in the bottle. I'm not sure if it's my skin tone or if I just didn't use enough coats to reach completely opaque. I only used it on my toes so it's kind of hard to tell whether or not it's opaque. Overall though, I still like it. It's a pretty color and the formula is smooth. It evens out perfectly so there's no streakiness. I think it's perfect for summer. The formula, like most Essie polish is flawless - not too thick, not to thin. I would recommend and repurchase this color.

After being so impressed with "Limited Addiction" (a deep red) I wanted to find a great spring coral and this fit the bill:

This is a warm peach slightly pastel coral that screams Springtime with Sophistication. It's bright, yet subdued. A calming color. Apply Seche Vite topcoat and you're good to go!

Wanted to try: "e-nuf is e-nuf", "Canyon Coral", and "Boat House", but ULTA didn't have them.
