Essie Penny Talk


Base: One coat CND Stickey
Color: Two coats Essie Penny Talk
Top: One coat Seche Vite
Application: Good (out of poor, average, good, excellent)


Just F.Y.I., I did not take the above picture like that. Blogger decided to randomly flip my picture on it's side like it likes to do sometimes and I am too lazy to try to re-upload it. I'm having one of those weeks though, when everything seems like a giant pain in the butt. Anyway, I finally got Essie Penny Talk, the only polish from Mirror Metallics that I really wanted. Penny Talk is a pretty soft coppery rose gold metallic.


Essie Penny Talk is a bit brushstroke-y, but I knew it would be when I bought it. The brushstrokes aren't terrible, I can live with them. This is only two coats of Penny Talk, and it was actually opaque in one. I gave it a "good" mark for application because it was not as terrible as I thought it would be. That's probably not a good way to judge a polish, but it really did perform better than I was expecting. Overall, this is a soft pretty metallic and I'm glad I got it!


Essie Penny Talk is available now at drugstores and Walmart.

So, how's your week going? I hope some of you had Columbus Day off yesterday! I did not, but I actually have a day off this weekend finally, so I'm looking forward to it!

Blogger is being a pain in the butt for me too! Cannot figure out how to keep it from rotating all of my pictures...
Pretty colour, but the streak marks might drive me crazy!

Isn't that annoying OPI Addict? Why does it rotate pictures randomly??

Tintin- yea, I think the streaking is something you either can deal with or not. I'll deal with it for the color!

Natalija- it is a pretty color!!
