Blue Rhapsody by Essie

This Essie polish is part of the Mirror Metallics range that Essie released last summer. I have never used an Essie nail polish before and at £7.99 a bottle as much as I was drawn to these polishes I felt these would not worth the money. Then last month I found these at Xtras-online.co.uk for the bargain price of £2.99 each (they have since gone up to £3.99 each). I bought all five polishes in the range for the same price as I would have paid for two full price. Bargain!

This polish is a steel blue/grey colour, looks great in the bottle and is even more amazing on the nails.  The polish shines in natural light and just looks like polished steel on the nails.

The consistency of these Essie polishes is really good, in my opinion it needed two coats but I believe that all metallic polishes do as every brushstroke shows up. That is my only criticism of this polish though. The brush is wide and very easy to use. I was very impressed. Not sure i would stretch to paying £7.99 a bottle but I will definitely be keeping my eye out for other Essie bargains online.

Next up is Elizabeth Street by Nails Inc.
