favorite essie colors!

So I recently took a trip to the nail salon and got my nails done. I seem to always find myself standing in front of the rows of nail polish trying to decide what color I want to make my nails and get so frustrated that I just end up getting a french manicure to keep things simple. Together my mom, my two sisters and I have really created quite a collection of Essie nail polishes and I decided I would filter through our collection and pick out some of my favorites to eliminate the burden that I constantly bring upon myself when I need to pick a color.

Whenever I settle for the french manicure I choose Sugar Daddy. It's the perfect color for a french manicure and has a little hint of pink which I like over a more beige color.

Forget Me Nots is described as "a strawberry milkshake pink," which I think is the perfect description of it. It's just the right shad of pink but not too Barbie pink.

With my obsession with pink and of coarse having my Barbie moments I turn to Exposure. A lot brighter than Forget Me Nots, but not that nauseating highlighter pink.

When I feel the need to go on the dark side, I never doubt Wicked. This picture doesn't do much of justice because it isn't as black as it appears in this picture. It's much more of deep burgundy. That I just LOVE!

Some other favorites: Castaway, Jumpin Junkanoo, Wild Thing, Rock Star Skinny.
