Drogerijska verzija Essie lakova ima pljosnatu, kružno sečenu četkicu. Ne sadrže formaldehid, toluen i DBP i dolaze u bočicama od 15 ml. U DM-u su do kraja maja sniženi na oko 680 dinara.

Koliko me je boja ovog laka očarala, toliko me je formula razočarala. Boju bih opisala kao zasivljenu boju svetloljubičastog jorgovana. Nanošenje je vrlo nezgodno. Ako na četkici ne ostane dovoljno laka za ceo nokat, teško se mogu izvršiti popravke, a sa druge strane ako na četkici ostane suviše laka, sliće se u zanoktice jer je dosta tečan. Drugi sloj donekle omogućava ujednačenost, ali četkica povlači lak pri korenu nokta i stvorili su mi se mehurići iako sam dosta čekala između slojeva. Sjaj laka je visok. Na slikama imam dva sloja bez nadlaka, a nastale su na dnevnom svetlu.

This polish disappointed me as much as its colour enchanted me. I would describe the colour as grayed colour of the light purple lilac. The application is very bad. If there isn't enough polish left on the brush for the whole nail, you can't fix it up because it will pull leaving bald spots, and on the other hand if there is too much of the polish on the brush it will end up in your cuticles since it's runny. The second coat kind of provides opacity but the brush pulls the polish at the root of the nail and I got bubbles even though I waited between the coats a lot. The polish is glossy. I have two coats without top coat on the pictures and they were taken in the daylight.
