    Thanks for posting the links to compare the old SSN to the new one! I was planning on getting it but this definitely changed my mine since it's obviously not the same polish.

    Thanks so much for the review - this was important to see so I don't waste money!
    Maybe Essie thinks the next big thing for 2016 will be sheer polishes???

    "trying to figure out exactly who's favorites these were" that comment was both lowkey savage, but also really true lol, like I only like 2 out of 6 (and was surprised that it hadn't officially released yet because I've seen them in stores, and snatched up starry starry night right away). I was hoping they would've brought back shine of the times but OH WELL. Thanks for mentioning that SSN isn't the same as the original btw, definitely going to check those blog posts out. Thanks for another great swatch and review video! I

    When I heard that Essie was bringing back a few polishes I was hoping so bad that Shine of the Times would be one of them. I'm a little disappointed about the frosty polishes and the fact that they didn't bring back the original Starry Starry Night but the new one still looks nice. Nice swatch and review Jess!

    You are right! The more I see them the more I wonder who was in charge of deciding which polishes should be chosen to be in this collection... SSN is the only one that caught my eye... The rest are so sheer and frosty ... What on earth?

    • @evelang182
      @evelang182 9 лет назад +1

      +Adry Vg There is an interview with Essie herself online somewhere and she said in it that she is the one who ultimately decides which polishes go into a collection and she names them all herself as well. Which is why they never release yellows anymore, Essie doesn't like them! She said she started making polishes because what was available was so boring, but now so many of Essie's polishes are boring. All these with the exception of SSN are just typical Essie colours, hardly noticeable and too sheer. I guess she must think they look 'elegant' or something. Such a shame.

    Eddie just hurts their own reputation putting out a collection lime this. I also feel like it's a bad publicity stunt, especially in the case of Starry Night. I own a handful of Essie polishes and am leary of most. I'm so grateful for your excellent reviews showing how the polish actually applies. You have saved me a lot of money.

    I guess I am in the minority here! I love them! I am a bit older and find these very nostalgic! I agree about Starry Starry Night though. I don't own the original and wish it was an exact replica, but l also understand, especially with glitter polishes it might have been hard to duplicate the formula. It is still a beautiful polish nonetheless! Nice to hear your input on the collection!

    • @Miss_Melly_D
      @Miss_Melly_D 9 лет назад

      +Nail Polish Nook nice to hear something positive about Essie polishes. Apart from the usual experienced manicurist technique of applying some of the polishes with bad formulas what other Magic is there that the rest of us need to adopt? when applying such colours that shrink, leave streaks, and need four coats to leave an even coat!

    • @nailpolishnook7373
      @nailpolishnook7373 9 лет назад

      melanie mcginn I don't know if you were asking me directly, but when I am using sheer polishes, I use them for their intended purposes. I never try to get them opaque. A nice clean natural manicure. I try to start off with a good foundation to paint. To help the polish go on even I buff out any ridges and use rubbing alcohol to remove any residue dirt and oil. Make sure your nails are lint free and dry before you paint. As far as shrinkage I normally don't get that with Essie, but I do with other brands. To help, I wrap my tip with the polish and when applying a top coat (especially seche vite) I wait for my polish to dry completely.

      I love them too, and I'm young! Sheer polishes always looked so much better to me. Everyone in the comments is being so snobby, saying things like these colors are for "grandmas" and whatnot. Well, if they want to say that, honestly I think girls that wear really bright colorful nail polish just look kind of tacky. Girls who wear it seem childish and lacking class.

    thanks for you reviews on Essie, I have quite a few bottles out of which only two have good formulas! I wished I watched your reviews first before buying them. Bikini so teeny was the worst formula I have ever encountered and when I approached UK Essie they wouldn't hear of it! they wanted to send me the bottle back I told them to keep for themselves if they loved it so much! Essie also told me here in the UK that Essie bought in drug stores are a thicker formula and Essie bought in professional trade online is thinner formula which I disagree with that statement! The brushes are however different here in Uk than in US I am put off with Essie polishes, this is down to my own experiences with what I have purchased here and in the US.

    Oh wow, okay. I was excited about these when I first heard the news, but it seems like they're not going to end up in my stash. I do think I will pick up Starry Starry Night; that was the only one I could see myself wearing. I mean sure, it's not as pretty as the original, but it still is a pretty polish. The fun thing is that I recently mixed a polish that looks very very similar to the original version, so I wouldn't have 'needed' it anyway.
    You mention a neon yellow at around 3:30, do you mean funky limelight? I still have that one, but I'm starting to run out. It was my first ever neon polish though!
    As always, thanks for sharing! :)

    Sometimes it's a little hard to get a true representation of the color through my monitor. Because of that, I'm wondering if sequin sash would make a good base for a french mani. It looks like it could on my laptop but, if I get it, it would be for that reason.
    Anyone have it along with their thoughts for using it for french mani?

    I feel like the people who had the votes in for the majority of this collection were women who were probably young adults back then and still wear Essie now. I'm not sure if I could ever be nostalgic enough to want to bring back those awful sheer shades when there are so many amazing options these days. The only polish I bought from this collection was SSN. It's unfortunate, because I bet there were plenty of other polishes that could have been brought back that would have been better.

    @jessface90 well having watched your review and looked at the 2 blog posts I think I'd rather get the Colors by Llarowe polish, I am not a fan of Essie, their formula doesn't appear to be consistent when compared to OPI or Zoya even Barry M in the UK has better formula, so for me that whole collection is a thanks but no thanks.

  • @evelang182
    @evelang182 9 лет назад

    The neon yellow you refer to, was that Funky Limelight? I keep hoping they will bring that back, along with Barbuda Banana. Unfortunately, Essie herself is the one who ultimately decides which polishes are going to be in a collection and she said she refuses to release yellows regardless of what anyone advises her, which is why she is known as "No yellow Essie" apparently.
    This collection is so disappointing and with the possible exception of SSN, just 'typical' Essie polishes. They are the sort of ultra sheer, hardly noticeable polishes that Essie is known for. Maybe she thinks they are elegant, I suppose they are in the right situation, but there are always so many like these.
    I used Peak Show last week and was so disappointed. I was really looking forward to using it, but the formula was terrible. I wondered if it was just being unlucky, as I thought it would be one with a good formulation. It will be my first negative review of anything, as I always try to see the good in things, but it was hard to with this one. So disappointing. I do like Essie polishes but a little fed up with the blandness of them.
    She said she started making polishes herself because what was available was so boring, the sad thing is that now Essie polishes are so often seen as boring! Great review and swatches.

    • @jessFACE90
      @jessFACE90  9 лет назад

      +EveLang1 Thanks! Funky Limelight was the one! It's weird to me that someone would sell to so many different people but only make things that they personally like... I kind of hoped L'Oreal acquiring Essie would step them up a little, but it seems to have done the opposite in the last few years.

    • @evelang182
      @evelang182 9 лет назад

      +jessFACE90 It seems as though Essie still has the ultimate say in everything herself & the last word on which polishes get released. She said she names them all herself, which is ok I suppose, but she came across in the interview as very stubborn and determined, which again is ok, I suppose, but as a business woman she ought to consider what the public might want. (According to her though, yellows never sell so she feels justified in refusing to release them, but I think if Essie released some yellows, with good formulas, they'd fly off the shelves!).

    I was thinking the same thing! Who on earth decided THESE were the colours to bring back? I wanted to see the bright yellow, Shine of the times, Punchy Pink... and of course the REAL SSN lol. What the hell, Essie! I bought the new SSN before I saw it wasn't the same... so annoying.

    Essie's nail polishes are so overrated. They are always so sheer and just horrible. Most of the time showing brush strokes. Like seriously Essie can do better than that. And who even voted for these polishes. Hope Essie steps up their game for 2016

      I think they got worst since they changed the formula, I used to be a big essie fan and loved the first nail polishes I bought from them and they still work and apply very well (some I have are out of production ex. Plaza sweet) but the ones I bought the last few years went gloopy just a few months after I bought them and the colour separates almost immediately! It also applies very thin and with lots of strokes :/

    Thanks for the demo but I am not a fan of any of the retro line. Starry Starry Night had potential but I don't like the finish and I have Painted Polish, "buzzed on blue" which has a better finish. Happy New Year.

    I've never been a fan of the sheer polishes ala Essie. On my ridged nails, the coats always looked uneven and not flattering. Considering there are so many pretty blue polishes, especially indie, I'm taking a pass on SSN.

    They did some sort of poll thing, not sure when, but clearly they didn't advertise it very well because I didn't know until I heard that SSN was coming back and I did a Google search on it. No one ever mentioned anything about it on Instagram, so I know I'm not the only one who was left in the dark. Like, they really should've sent some info out to swatchers like you, or polishaholic, etc. IDK why they didn't. And they could've at least said something about SSN being different. Essie, this did not endear you to our hearts. Staaaaaahp. This could have been so much cooler, Essie. Y u gotta do dis

    • @jessFACE90
      @jessFACE90  9 лет назад +1

      +Patricia Peaden I'm thinking that they had 5 already decided, and picked the last one via the poll, which ended up being Starry Starry Night. There's no way those other 5 were voted in.

    Aside from Starry Starry night, the rest of the polishes were C- polishes at best. Maybe they were awesome back in the day, but that's like trying to bring back bell bottoms cause they were hot stuff in the 70's. This was a very average collection. Thx for reviewing.

    • @jurassictart3625
      @jurassictart3625 8 лет назад +1

      I purchased a few essie polishes a while ago just for fun, and after about a week they all either got all lumpy and gross, or seperated completely no matter how much you shook it. It's either a hit or a miss with essie, mostly misses.

  • @Jo.lawler
    @Jo.lawler 9 лет назад

    Before I saw you swatch SSN, I would have bought it if I could get it for the regular price or close to that. Now I don't want it and I wouldn't paint my nails with the rest of the collection if it was free. SSN is selling on Ebay for $20 to $50 per bottle and I see now, there's nothing special about it. My favourite ebay polish store that normally sells Essie's for $3.99 each had SSN at a starting bid of $29.99, I asked why, he said, "It is popular colour."

Then we get to starry starry night which is the best of the six, but completely different from the original! Ladies if you're looking for a close second to the original cbl twinkle twinkle star or night is the closest.
