Hello Lovelies! I'm sure you have seen or at least heard of Essie's Mirror Metallics collection. I recently picked up the lavender one called Nothing Else Metals. Application was a bit streaky and a little clumpy when I went over an area, but the metallic payoff was good. This is two coats of Nothing Else Metals.
This collection reminds me of the Avon Mirror Shine collection that I posted a while back here (beware...it's when I had my nubbins lol). They have that same metallic finish. I actually like the formula of the Avon Mirror Shine's a lot more.
Have you seen or tried Essie's Mirror Metallics collection? Any thoughts?
oh i like this!
ReplyDeleteYay! Glad you do :D
DeleteOh man.....Why didn't I pick this one up!!! :(
ReplyDeleteI love!
Aw lol. It's a pretty metallic shade :D
DeleteIt's so SHINY! I love these :) And your nubs were cute!
ReplyDeleteIt is! haha. omg...thanks lol
DeleteThis is really pretty :D
ReplyDeleteI don't have a metallic nail polish but they seem like fun to have. Your 'nubbins' were so cute! Haha (:
Really? I think one metallic would be good to have in your collection :D hehe
Deleteaw shucks. Thanks lol! They were so short!!
Wow this looks stunning on you!
ReplyDeleteAw thanks, Nory :D
DeleteIt looks very pretty! I haven't picked up anything from this collection yet but I'd love to pick up this one :)
ReplyDeleteIt is! Yea, I figured I would pick up at least one or two from this collection :D This one would look great on you!
DeleteI actually grabbed all of these except the gold because it was sold out haha. I had a target gift card and I had nothing else to buy! But this one was my favorite of them all, I wore it all during camp and so did my co-counselors and even some campers! I usually don't like metallics all that much but I really loved this color!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! lol that's so true! Whenever I go, they are almost all sold out!
Deleteomg everyone was wearing this haha! That's awesome!
I'm not too happy about metals - but I must confess that this one looks fabulous on you!!
ReplyDeletelol thanks, Maria! :P
Deletelooks soo pretty, I bet it is awesome for stamping!
ReplyDeleteIt does. It is! I've seen Nicole from Polish Me Please! use another one from this line for stamping! I want to try it :D
DeleteThe prettiest nail polish on the planet!

Hehe that's a big statement! I'm glad you think so! :D
DeleteThis one is my favorite! Looks perfect on you!
ReplyDeleteYay! Haha thanks, Amanda! :D
DeleteVery shiny! I need to try this one still.
ReplyDeleteVery! I have one more of these to try! :D
DeleteI JUST bought the silver metallic polish. I am eager to try it, though I do fear the streaking aspect. Usually, polishes of this nature do streak but I will just have to make more of an effort to apply as best as I can. =)

Ooh good luck! I was hoping the formula of these wouldn't be as bad since I do have a few other metallics that didn't give too much trouble...I'm hoping to have better luck with the blue one I got! I hope yours turns out great! :D
DeleteOooh I love this one. Great swatches! I haven't picked any of these up yet but I really want this one an the rose-gold/coppery one.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Ooh I want to pick that one up too! I keep seeing swatches of that and it looks amazing! :D
DeleteI'm not a fan of metallic polishes... I don't know why - but I love it on you!
ReplyDeletelol I'm not as big of a fan to metallics so I know what you mean, but I do love this one hehe. Thanks! :D
DeleteYour nails are getting so nice and long! :o I'm not big on metallics but this one looks very nice on you. Something about the streak-prone finish is so daunting to me! :P
ReplyDeletelol thanks, Brittney! Ugh I know! haha. It's not my favorite part when it comes to applying certain mettalics!
DeleteI love the color of this one! I'm not a huge fan of metallics, but it is a lovely purple!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree! :D
DeleteI've seen them, but have yet to buy any.
ReplyDeletelol You don't have to be too much in a hurry for these...hehe
DeleteI haven't tried the mirror metallics but I like this! I love the lavender color that it has (although I'm pretty partial to lavender) :)
ReplyDeleteI think the lavender is what caught my attention for this one lol! Yay for lavender! :D
DeleteI didnt consider purchasing any of the mirror metallics but you make them look good!
ReplyDeletelol aw thanks!
Deletethis is very cute on you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Daisy :D
DeleteI passed on the whole collection. I think it was because they called it "mirror metallics" which gave me higher expectations that it would be more mirror/metal like than just metallic.
ReplyDeleteAhh yea, it would have been way nicer if it was more "mirror/metal." I think the formula could have been better too. I'm glad I didn't get all of them! :)
DeleteAW also not here yet! Layla Mirror Effect looks like it might be similar though do you think?
ReplyDeleteOh no! lol. omg I think the Layla ones are similar and better!! :D I've yet to try those, but they look amazing!
DeleteI haven't tried any of these, but I would really like the blue one! :D
ReplyDeleteThe blue one is another one I got but haven't tried yet! :D
DeleteThat gives a whole new meaning to metallic. Maybe one day our nails can actually be reflective.
ReplyDeletelol! That would be awesome :D
Deletei really love how you made your nails, the color is stunning! <3

Aw thanks! :D

ReplyDeleteOoh you should try it! Hopefully you like it :)
DeleteJust checked out your blog! Love Disney! :D
love your blog, thanks for following :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love yours too! :D
Deletei havent seen that collection yet and am not so sure how i would feel about it since im into pastels more.BUT that looks really nice and strong@!
ReplyDeletehehe I'm more into pastels than metallics too, but had to give these a shot! :D
DeleteI saw that collection at my local Sally. Disappointing that it's streaky. Essie usually goes on really smooth.

I know :/ I was a litle disappointed...glad it looked ok after though :)
Deletethis is really nice color!
ReplyDeleteIt is! :D
DeleteI think your nubbins are so cute! I like the colour, but for some reason I'm not that crazy about this new Essie collection...is that strange?
ReplyDeletelol thanks! Nope that's not strange at all haha! :D That's kind of how I feel about this collection
DeleteThanks, Jenni! :)
ReplyDeleteThe color is very pretty but I'm avoiding chrome nail polishes because I hate the streaking. =(
ReplyDeleteI know! It's the sad part about them :/
