The colors are pretty…but this definitely did not dry quickly for me. Several minutes (10+) after applying, they were still gummy and got smudged and I had to paint all over.
Love it!

The image shown is much brighter than what it actually is, it's still a nice color but a very pale orange.

Bought this color recently and it was BEAUTIFUL at first, but chipped horribly within a day. The polish peeled completely off one nail on day 2. Redid the manicure, and the same thing happened; most nails chipped a day later. For reference, I used the same base / top coat as always, and manicures usually last a week; there seems to be an issue with this specific shade. Tragic; it would be so pretty if it would stay on.

Hi miller92! Thanks for reaching out to us regarding Not So Low-Key. We're sorry to hear that it chipped so quickly and we be sure to pass your experience along to our teams.

The dark blue completely stained my nails!
1 reply from Essie Team team - 3 months ago
Hi there, we understand how disappointing that must be! Unfortunately, some people are more likely to experience staining from intensely pigmented polish shades like this deep navy. Those with dry nails are especially at risk. If you see staining during polish removal, lightly buff the nail to remove polish residue from the surface of the nail plate. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

Arrived in the box broke. Polish all over bath scrubbie. All over the other outside of kids toys. Why didn’t they wrap this better. I have a mess. You need to replace the polish scrubbie and the 2 kids toys

Hi there Sandra, we would certainly be disappointed as well. We hope the seller can help you with your order.

Katie - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
The IRL color looks completely different on my nails than it does in the bottle. The bottle looks like a light/bright purple. After painting my nails, the color is more of a dark purple/grape color. It goes on well and dries quickly, just wasn't expecting the color to be so different.
1 reply from Essie Team team - 3 months ago
Hi there Katie, We wish you could see the results you were hoping for with the expressie quick dry color, ‘IRL’. This color is described as a grape purple. But we get what a challenge it can be to select a color based on how it appears in the bottle. For a slightly lighter purple, take a look at the color ‘choreo queen’. Meanwhile, if you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

Used 2 coats and a clear topcoat and it was still chipping like crazy the next day. Thumbs down

Hi there Cookie, We can see this wouldn’t be the result you were hoping for…be sure to apply these quick dry colors to bare, clean nails. We would love to learn more about your experience with this color. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

My review is mostly about the customer service experience I received. Since this item became unavailableafter placing my order, Target offered to ship it free saving me the time and hassle of of hunting it down elsewhere. I received on the day they promissed, can't ask for better service.
Finally a perfect application!!!

I have been waiting for this polish my entire life. Every other brand goes on streaky, uneven, and the brushes are terrible. This is the first and only polish that applies perfectly and evenly. The brush is angled just right and isn't super thick. Not to mention it dries very fast making gorgeous manis a breeze. I will not buy another brand! This stuff is the best!
Darker than expected

I generally enjoy the quality of polishes in the Expressie line and was super excited to try this color but was ultimately disappointed by its lack of depth. The final color is VERY dark, almost black, rather than a darker chocolate-y brown. Wish it was just a tiny bit lighter.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 5 months ago
Hello ipol! Thanks for sharing some feedback with us on the expressie quick dry color Take The Espresso. We are so sorry to hear this blackened dark chocolate brown is a bit darker than you were hoping for. The next lighter brown would be the mid range brown color Cold Brew Crew. https://www.essie.com/nail-polish/quick-dry/nudes/cold-brew-crew

This polish dries so fast it’s the only thing I can use for my kids. It last much longer than kid polish that chips. It dries in seconds. I use it as well!! I love this stuff!

Love the color and stays on my nails. Huge bonus! Price isn't bad either. Also it doesn't turn my nails yellow
Not worth the price but still decent

This polish does dry quickly, however it looks like chalk when painted on. After three coats and then a clear top coat it looked a much cheaper polish. The opacity was decent considering I purchased the white aka “unapologetic icon”
