Essence: You Belong to Me

Hi!  I've got a few minutes to put up another quick post.

Here's a pre nail break swatch.  Essence's You Belong to Me is another 'in-between' shade.  It appears as a cool icecreamy mint green in the bottle, however on the nail it sits somewhere between birds-egg blue and green.  This could almost pass for a dupe of China Glaze's For Audrey although this shade is a little paler.  Still gorgeous though - I'm a fan of these eggshell shades!

It seems Essence is going to be a little harder to find for Australian girls.  I've noticed it's quietly disappeared from my usual Priceline haunts but it's still selling at selected Target stores for now.  I hope it sticks around.

Until next time.

  1. You're killing me with these Essence polishes. I was in Melbourne yesterday and had a look at Bourke St priceline, couldn't find it! This shade is just stunning though, I love egg shell blues too.

  4. I have this one, it's more like Essie's Mint Candy Apple to my eye, but application was rather bad with my bottle of this, I got bubbles all over. Perfect summer carefree shade !

  5. @Makeup and Macaroons - I'm sorry Lilit but unfortunately I think Priceline have decided to remove Essence from their stores. If you get out and about in suburban Melbourne you could try the Target store in the Westfield store at Doncaster.

    @Polish AMOR - Thanks, this is one of my favourites from Essence so far too!

    @Vintage Makeup - You can't go wrong with a nail polish in this shade. Pretty and interesting at the same time. :)

    @hermetic - What a shame it bubbled on you. Sometimes the formula just doesn't work and it's really disappointing. I don't have Mint Candy Apple - yet another polish to look out for! Haha :)

  8. I hope Essence actually *appears* somewhere here in QLD! I found it in Priceline when I was down in Melbourne, but haven't spotted it anywhere near me on the Gold Coast.

  9. @Silhouette Screams - Fingers crossed! It's only in Melb & Syd at the moment.
