    Tired of my usual colors of nail polish, I picked Penny Talk up from CVS for about $8 or so. Kinda ambivalent on it: The good was that its very pigmented out the bottle and metallic-y, only needed...

    I love this color (penny talk), but it DOES NOT STAY ON! I painted my nails very well, using an OPI nail prep & base coat, two coats of the beautifully colored polish, then two coats (thin, but...

    Gorgeous color, a rose gold/copper like a bright brand new penny, but really difficult formula and it chips if you so much as look at it. The polish has a nice consistency on the brush - it's...

    I have such mixed feelings about this polish. I want to give it a higher rating because I love the color so much, but the formula just kind of... sucks. Pros: Like I just said above, GREAT...

    Essie's penny talk is a beautiful metallic rose gold. It can be difficult to apply but not impossible. I buffed my nails (highly recommend buffing before this nail polish) put on base cost then put...

    A lovely coppery colour, very like rose gold, with a true metallic finish. On my fair, cool-toned skin, this polish is almost like a metallic neutral, which is a really interesting look....

    One of my favorites of the mirror metallic collection. It is in a color of a penny indeed !

    Color is so great but chips almost immediately! I find Essie polishes to be such a hit or miss - you never know what you're going to get. The quality of this is definitely a miss, though the color...

    Gorgeous, gorgeous color. Disappointing wear and application. I can live with a few brushstrokes, but this bubbled on me and my nubbin-length nails are already chipping less than 24 hours after...

    Yes, it shows ridges and is a little tricky to work with, but what a beautiful metallic rose gold! Dries super fast, I'm really liking it on my toes as well. It's pretty. No regrets.
