2.0 out of 5 stars Completely different color on the Nail September 15, 2010
Color Name:Melon
I love the color of this polish as it appears in the bottle, a delicate light pinky-peach. Aside from the application, which is difficult to get even and required three coats, the dry-down color turns a significantly darker shade of the bottle color once painted on the nail. But wait, it gets worse! Any top coat will turn it bright orange, almost neon! At first I thought it was my particular brand of top coat (Seche Vite) that had turned the color. But I tried a second swatch with Essie's own Good To Go and the exact same thing happened.

1.0 out of 5 stars Essie Missed On This One September 6, 2011
Color Name:Melon|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am such an Essie girl and can't wait for that greatest new color to come out every season. This is why I ordered "Tart Deco". I absolutely hated the color. I thought I would love it; but when I tried it on the color was just awful on my nails. Maybe it's my skin color? I have golden undertones to my skin, but this just didn't work for me. I would so go somewhere to test this color on my nail before purchasing it. I tried to give it to several of my friends and it didn't look good on any of them either. So, I just got rid of it. Lesson learned I guess.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too orange May 2, 2010
Color Name:Melon|Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered four Essie polishes at the same time and this is the only one I truly don't like (the others were Lilacism, Bermuda Shorts, and Funky Limelight). I expected Tart Deco to be a coral color, but it is much too orange and is unflattering. I already own other orange nail polishes which are brighter/tropical and are much more flattering. This also has the same problem as Funky Limelight- it's too thin and requires 3-4 coats for adequate coverage, which is a waste of product. Also, just be aware that the polishes in this collection are matte. I ordered through Beauty 911- my two Essie bottles arrived on time in an OPI carrying case. The other two polishes I ordered through Nail Beauty 4U- these arrived very fast. I didn't find a problem with any of the four polishes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not What you expect! April 25, 2010
By Liza
Color Name:Melon|Amazon Verified Purchase
This turns out to be a bright orange color and not the coral colored way you would expect it to be from looking at the bottle. Very disappointing. It also has very poor consistency and streaks a lot and goes on way too thick. Not what I expected from Essie.

2.0 out of 5 stars Color is on the neon side and streaks... April 11, 2010
Color Name:Melon|Amazon Verified Purchase
I adore the color on the bottle and was VERY disappointed to find out the actual nail polish color is different, on the neon side... I was looking for a subtle pink-coral color - not an "in your face" color.

The consistency of the nail polish is a bit too thick so it streaks and I had to apply it at least 3 times to get a good coverage.

Another disadvantage I found in all the Essie nail polishes I ordered, was that they yellow once they get "in touch" with a top coat (I used Seche Vite).

4.0 out of 5 stars Color is great for spring April 28, 2010
Color Name:Melon|Amazon Verified Purchase
This color is great. I recieved a sample from Nordstroms and wanted the full size. Its for those who like bold
spring colors, not pastels. Feedback on the seller : Nail Beauty 4 U shipped VERY fast. Great speed. I ordered 5
Essie bottles and 4 of them looked somewhat used. There was polish on the inside that spilled over. Not too happy
about that. Would reconsider buying through them next time. Buyer beware.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't listen to bad reviews May 30, 2013
Color Name:Melon
Most of the bed reviews I have seen about this polish say it gets super bright with a top coat. I always use Seche Vite and the color didn't change. I LOVE this color for summer. It's fun, super cute, and bright but not too bright. This is seriously one of my favorite colors in my collection right now, and normally I'm a very pink girl. Get this color, it awesome.

4.0 out of 5 stars NIce color
Kind of like almost a neon cantaloupe salmon color, very opaque. You'd need 3 coats, less than that it would look streaky and ugly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful coral color
The color is very pretty dark coral. Perfect for summer time toes or fingernails. The application requires about 2 coats. Not super streaky. Definitely recommend.
