4.0 out of 5 stars Ready for Spring March 6, 2012

By J. G. Morales

Color Name:To Buy or Bot to Buy

To Buy or Not to Buy is a nice and bright color, but could be a bit too much on long nails. I used white flower decals on the nails of my ring fingers to break up the mass of light purple. It worked well and I received several compliments (though nail decals aren't really my thing). I think it's a safer bet on shorter nails. I purchased this before I started to tan, so my yellow undertones were in full force. Once I've baked to a cinnamony brown, I don't think this color will wear well on me.

Navigate Her is also a nice bright color, and one which might be a bit too much on long nails. Although I like this color alone much better than To Buy or Not to Buy, I received nary a compliment when I wore it with longer nails. I'm wearing it now with shorter nails, and I've gotten plenty of positive feed back. This is a color that I should be able to wear through summer, and my second favorite from the Spring 2012 collection.

Updated- A Crewed Interest is the color I was first drawn to in the Spring 2012 collection, but I didn't buy it till I started to tan. Having brown skin, this seemed to be a color that would look best on me without the heavy yellow undertones in my skin. On my tanned skin it's to die for! A Crewed Interest gets 5 stars from me. However, it is a color that looks best on short nails. I ended up cutting my nails super short in order to pull off the Spring 2012 collection- especially A Crewed Interest, which looks very wrong on super long nails. I can't scratch, but my polish looks hot. =-p

Sadly, I noticed the Spring 2012 colors aren't as opaque as most of the Essie shades I've purchased in the past and look best at 3 coats. At two coats, the manicure might look a little streaky, but the overall consistency of the polishes is fine otherwise.

4.0 out of 5 stars Essie A Crewed Interest September 23, 2012

By Nicole

Color Name:A Crewed Interest|Amazon Verified Purchase

I absolutely love this nail polish. It's such a pretty, classic-looking nail color. I was a little worried it wouldn't look nice on my skin tone since I'm very pale, it's actually really flattering. However, like most light-colored creme nail polishes, it does apply quite streaky and takes 3-4 coats to get it to full opacity. But once you do, it looks wonderful.
I definitely recommend this color.
