nail polish review: essie have a ball collection (part two)

Honestly? My nails have never looked better. This is the first time in a long time that I have consistently maintained my nail polish. It might have something to do with the Essie Have a Ball Nail Polish collection. Not only do these polishes have impressive longevity and durability, but the colours are so fun and exciting. This has really motivated me to be consistent and make sure my nails are always looking their best. In the first part of my three part review, it was all about Love-All Game and Have a Ball. Those shades were ridiculously bright, colourful, and bold. This time? It is all about the white and purple nail polish colours included in the collection. Curious about how they perform? What these colours look like on the nails? Here is everything you need to know about these fabulous Essie nail polishes....


As a reminder, the 6-Piece Have a Ball Collection from Essie is all about tennis. This limited edition collection includes a number of bright, bold shades that are perfectly themed. An example of the theme? The shade names for the next two nail polishes are Play Date and Blanc. Here are reviews of the next two shades included in the collection. 


Play Date by Essie. There is nothing better than a gorgeous purple nail polish. Play Date is definitely a standout in my nail polish collection, because it is so bright and beautiful. This is such a vibrant purple and it makes a statement in the best possible way. I absolutely adore the colour. This needed two coats and it dried fairly quickly. The application process was quite simple and straightforward...but the best part is the fact that this lasted for so so long. It was a full two weeks without any chipping, which is pretty remarkable, based on my previous experiences. I've tried so many different nail polishes over the years, and certainly have my preferences, but whenever I need a nail polish that is going to stand the test of time...I will be choosing something from the Have a Ball Collection every single time. I am so impressed with both the quality and the fabulous colours.


Blanc by Essie. Ahh, white nail polish. I always have such a soft spot for a beautiful white polish. It is so vibrant and fresh! Unfortunately, finding a good white nail polish can be difficult. Thankfully, there is a lot to love about Blanc by Essie. It only took one coat to fully cover the nails (which for a white polish is unusual). This had a slightly thicker formula than some of the other nail polishes in the collection, but it was definitely beneficial. That being said, this polish is a little trickier in terms of the actual application because white shows every little mistake. So my application was certainly lacking a little bit...but the end result was still pretty fabulous. My advice? Go slow and do your best to be precise. This lasted about a week and a half before there was a small amount of tip wear. I just touched it up and my nails looked fresh and fabulous once more. 

The Essie 6-Piece Hall a Ball Collection has really been wowing me. The second two polishes in the collection were just as impressive as the first two. I really love all of the different colours (they are so unique to my nail polish collection) and the durability is everything. It has been nice not having to worry about my nails or whether the polish will flake, chip, or start to wear off. Curious about the last two shades in this collection? Then be sure to stay tuned. Part three of this nail polish review will be featured on the creation of beauty is art. in the coming weeks. 

Are you a fan of Essie products? What do you think of these nail polish colours?
