Essie 'Penny Talk' Swatch and Review

My very first essie polish! Wanted one for ages but they are just a bit too expensive for me. I had been seeing a few good reviews for the April Glossy Box, which is where I got it from, my review of which can be found Here

Back to the polish!
This one is called 'Penny Talk' its light metallic bronze. I have been after a bronze for a while so I was happy with this.

As you can see, it is quite pale for a bronze, slightly pink tones to it. Is it weird that I love the shape of the brush? The curve is much better than the usual brush shapes. I used 1 coat on my little finger, it is  completely opaque but I have all those ridges where my acrylics were so I used a second coat on the rest of the nails. Easy to apply and dried quite quickly.

Essie retails at £7.99 per bottle, ouch! I just cant justify spending that much on one bottle, which is a shame because they have some amazing colours available.

The official website is here: essie and you can also purchase them in Boots stores.

what do you think of this colour?
