Europe's Essence Cosmetics now at Ulta! | 18 nail colors all for $1 each + Essence "Ready For Action" nail polish review

I didn't purchase any makeup from this line because it was TOO cute.  I'm on a blush and bronzer kick right now and didn't find it very Woman Of Color friendly.  Once I have the patience I might give it a try.  It reminds me of Hard Candy Cosmetics but for a younger audience.  The nail polish caught my eye...of course it would lol.  "Ready for Action" is pretty!  I wanted an orange-based red polish for Spring and wasn't sure if I would like it because I normally like cool blue-toned reds so decided to try this brand.  For it to be a mini nail polish in a smaller bottle than the average sized bottles it was good.  It has a wide brush, the application was great, and best of all it was $1.  The only issue was that the polish was not completely opaque.  The photo above is 3 coats.  When you consider base coat, 3 coats of nail polish, and topcoat that's 5 coats total.  More coats generally means more chipping.  I did this mani on Monday and I've only had a minimal amount of chipping and didn't touch up my topcoat.  Pretty good for a buck.
