Essence nail polish

Women's hands are the hallmark of every beautiful lady. After all, women do so many different jobs with their hands, but at the same time they do not forget to monitor the condition and appearance of the nails and skin on their hands. Today, gel polishes are very popular, which retain a beautiful and even color for a long time, emphasizing the perfect manicure. Most often, in beauty salons, when varnishing nails, special lamps are used that contribute to faster drying, but there are many conflicting opinions regarding the rationality of using such devices. As an alternative, make-up companies are offering quick-drying products like Essence nail polishes to the modern day.

In 2001, a new brand, the German trade mark Essence, entered the European market of decorative and care cosmetics. Pragmatic Germans quickly appreciated the quality of their products and were pleased to mark this company as an excellent manufacturer of quality goods at a very reasonable cost. After a short period of time, Essence is gaining momentum and becoming popular not only in Europe, but also on other continents. To date, cosmetics of this brand are sold in more than 60 countries around the world.

More than 95% of manufacturing enterprises are located on the territory of various European countries. It is also noteworthy that the company has completely abandoned animal testing of their products.

In addition to the main line of decorative and care cosmetics, which is updated by about 25% annually, the Essence trademark also produces exclusive products.

Products manufactured under the logo of the German brand Essence are characterized by excellent quality, a variety of products, a rich palette of colors (in particular, nail polishes) and an affordable price. With the exception of exclusive products, in general, cosmetics are designed for middle-income buyers. The company has identified young people as its main consumer, so there are a lot of bright and rich colors in the assortment. The line of quick-drying nail polish gels is presented in an incredibly wide range: pastel and neon colors, trendy glossy, pearly and matte varnishes, glitter options with various colors and shapes, etc.

The peculiarities of Essence brand lacquer gels include a thick texture, due to which the lacquer lays down evenly and tightly. According to the manufacturer's information, the nails look beautiful, the varnish lasts for a long time, the color, shine and shade transitions are preserved for a long period of time.Small bottles (from 5 to 8 ml) will not allow you to oversaturate with color, and a wide comfortable brush allows you to collect enough polish to quickly and easily make your nails beautiful and stylish.

How long a manicure will last depends not only on the quality of the varnish, but also on the application technology. It is not enough to paint your nails in one layer, let the varnish dry and hope for a breathtaking and lasting effect. When covering nails (including quick-drying gel polish), you must adhere to the following sequence:

1. Make a hygienic manicure (clean the nail plate from varnish, remove the cuticle, give the nails a beautiful neat shape).
2. It is important to remember that the varnish is applied exclusively to clean and dry nails.
3. The first layer is the foundation or base. Most often colorless. The base white tone is used if there is a need to give the main color a more persistent and saturated shade.
4. Quick-drying lacquer-gel in two coats. In this case, each layer should dry well. Otherwise, the varnish may leave streaks, bubble or lay unevenly. The saturation/brightness of the primary color depends on the number of layers.
5. Fixing agent or spray dryer, which are used for faster drying, elimination of various defects and color fixation.

However, do not forget that the same varnish can hold on completely differently. If, for example, one girl has a perfect manicure for about 5 days, then another may have microcracks or even chips already on the second day. The reason may be not only in the wrong application method, but also depending on the structure and type of the nail plate.

Despite the fact that the Essence trademark claims that quick-drying varnishes retain the perfect color and structure on the nails for 5-7 days, the opinions of the fair sex are ambiguous on this issue. In the comments and reviews on the products of this brand, one can find radically polar opinions: some girls are completely satisfied with the products of this brand, while others, in turn, are disappointed.

If we talk about positive aspects, then first of all they note the cost of Essence nail coatings. Compared to similar products produced by more famous brands (for example, Dior and Chanel), the German brand's decorative cosmetics are in no way inferior in quality. Also, a lot of positive feedback sounds regarding the variety of colors. Such a rich palette of colors allows you to choose the color of the varnish for any event, outfit and even mood.

If we talk about negative impressions, then a lot of comments are related to the updated design of the Color & Go, Effect Gel Nail Polish and other lacquer lines. Girls complain about the inconvenience of the new brush. Due to the wider shape, excess varnish remains on the brush, which lies on the nail plate in uneven stripes. There are also a lot of complaints that the varnish lasts an average of 2-3 days, and not the 5-7 days declared by the manufacturer. It is not uncommon for peeling, cracks and chips to be noticeable already on the second day after coating. Such impractical means causes disappointment and dissatisfaction, as a result of which the girls refuse to use the products of this German brand.
