Hi guys! Yesterday I showed you the new Catrice collection and today it's time for the new Essence collection, Denim Wanted. Denim Wanted is also limited edition and, like the name tells you, inspired on denim. It's an original theme so let's have a look to see how they've translated denim into polish!
Meet High Waist Pink, a pink creme that struggles to become a coral! It's bright and bold. I'm wearing three coats.
I Love My Jeans is the odd one out: it isn't a creme, it's a black shimmer. At first the shimmer looked silver but it's actually light green and pink shimmer. I'm wearing two coats.
My Boyfriend's Jeans is a dark blue creme. It looks a little dusty. I'm wearing two coats.
Fivepocket Grey is a medium grey creme. Again, I'm wearing two coats.
I miss one - 04 Forever Mine - but when I'm able to find it I'll swatch it and update this post. I hope I will find it though because I haven't seen anything that looked like it even excisted haha.
Overall the collection has nice shades but nothing spectaculair and I don't think the theme is that well noticable. The cremes don't apply the way I'd like them to, they're a little too thick and flood easily. The shimmer on the other hand applies very good. These were all two coaters, except for High Waist Pink and you don't necessarily need top coat. They dry very glossy.
The Essence Denim Collection is available for €1,79. I've bought mine in a Dutch drugstore but I believe that Essence releases this collection through most of Europe. By the way, when you're checking out the polishes make sure you grab the gelliners as well, they're nice!
How do you feel about this collection?
