FAQs

How do I prevent my nail polish from drying out in the bottle?

Always ensure the cap is screwed on tightly after each use. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dark place. If the polish does start to thicken, you can try adding a drop or two of nail polish thinner.

Can I mix and match cream and special effect shades?

Yes, absolutely! The collection is designed for creative mixing. You can layer special effect shades over cream colors or use different cream shades for a multi-mani effect.

How long does Essie nail polish typically last?

With proper application, including a base and top coat, Essie nail polish can last for several days to over a week without chipping, depending on daily activities.

Is this nail polish vegan?

Yes, the Essie Nail Polish '990 Stay Fluid' collection features a vegan formula.

What is the best way to apply special effect polishes?

Special effect polishes, especially glitters or textures, are often best applied as a top coat over a fully dried cream color. For glitter, you might dab it on for concentrated placement or use a single sweeping motion for a more dispersed look.

How many coats are recommended for full coverage?

Typically, two thin coats of Essie nail polish are recommended for full, opaque coverage. However, for some shades, a third thin coat might be needed.

Does Essie offer different types of top coats?

Yes, Essie offers a range of top coats, including quick-dry, gel-like finishes, and ultimate shine options, to complement their nail polish colors.

Troubleshooting

Polish is too thick or goopy

This can happen if the bottle has been exposed to air. Try adding one or two drops of nail polish thinner and gently roll the bottle between your hands to mix. Avoid shaking the bottle vigorously, as this can create air bubbles.

Streaky or uneven application

Ensure you are applying thin coats. For best results, try applying a slightly larger bead of polish in the center of the nail and then brushing outwards, using minimal pressure on the brush. Ensure each coat is dry before applying the next.

Color is not opaque after two coats

For highly pigmented shades or certain special effects, a third thin coat may be necessary. Alternatively, ensure your base coat is completely dry and not too thick.

Polish chips or peels quickly

Ensure nails are clean and completely dry before application. Always use a base coat and a top coat, and make sure they are fully dry before the polish starts to chip. Avoid prolonged exposure to water shortly after application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  2. Base Coat: Apply one thin coat of your favorite Essie base coat. Allow it to dry completely.
  3. Color Application: Apply two thin coats of Essie Nail Polish '990 Stay Fluid'. Allow each coat to dry for at least 60 seconds before applying the next.
  4. Special Effects (Optional): If using a special effect shade, apply it over the dry cream color for desired results.
  5. Top Coat: Finish with one coat of your preferred Essie top coat to seal the color, add shine, and enhance longevity.

Compatibility: This nail polish is compatible with all standard Essie base coats and top coats. It is designed for use on natural nails.

Care: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to prevent the polish from drying out. To clean spills or residue from the bottle neck, use a cotton pad lightly dampened with nail polish remover.
