Essie: Winter Trends 2018 Collection

This year Essie wanted to warm things up with a winter collection that is made up of favourite shades from previous collections. I love this concept as so many of Essie’s shades are iconic and therefore deserve the spotlight once again. We also know the formulas are good and that the shades are timeless.
