This was another that was pretty well opaque in 1 coat – I did have some patches leftover from the ridges in my nails, but a 2nd coat evened the rest of them out.Ī perfect color to describe everything outside in the city, just gray. The namesake of the collection, ‘Serene Slate’ is a nice traditional mid-tone gray cream shade. So thick and rich and just glided on the nails. This had a beautiful formula and was easily opaque in 1 coat. This one is a nice dusty blue-gray cream shade. ‘Toned Down’ is the first of the group of more muted and gray tones coming up. But I was able to easily get it opaque with those 2 coats. This one was a little more sheer in formula, so it did for sure need 2 coats. The shimmer does make it look rosier on the nail than it does in the bottle. This is a light gray shade with a touch of rosiness and a red shimmer throughout. ‘Wire-less is More’ is the only shimmery shade of the bunch.
This will be a nice pick-me up for spring whenever it decides to show up. This one I did for sure need a 2nd coat to make sure it was entirely opaque – honestly, surprised me how easy the formula was for such a light shade! It was completely opaque on 2 for sure, and didn’t sway at all up to 3.
‘Press Pause’ is a super light gray-toned blue cream shade. It can skip a little if there isn’t enough polish on the brush, so make sure to load it up – it’s thicker so it won’t flood the cuticles. I did a 2nd coat here, but overall a great formula, especially for a lighter neutral color like this. This had a super easy formula, and was pretty well opaque in 1 easy coat. It reminds me of dried, older concrete (idk here, I’m the daughter of a former cement truck driver). This is the warmest leaning out of all the colors. ‘Mind-Full Meditation’ is a light tan cream shade. I picked these up from ! Let’s get into the shades. It’s perfect for this weird period between winter and spring where it’s just cold. And they so nicely match the weather outside – just all gray. I was honestly so excited to get my grabby hands on this collection, because I am all here for grays. It’s a collection of 9 cream and shimmer shades that are all various tones of mainly grays and other neutrals. This is the Essie ‘Serene Slates’ collection. Obviously this will be more for makeup than nail polish, but this way you can see what products I’m buying and what I’m currently testing out, as well as getting an idea what’s coming up to the blog! It helps keep my content going, and if you see something that really peaks your interest in a haul, I can work on posting about that first! I just want to get you more consistent content and show you what I’m playing with.Īlright, should I also be a real blogger and stop rambling already and get into the polishes? Yeah, probs.

We can all pretend here.Īlso like a real blogger, (a la Temptalia, my actual idol – if you haven’t read her blog yet, go on over and see the masterpiece that it is), I think I’m going to start posting my hauls and products I’m getting in, as well as swatches of the product before I post the full review. Laptop at desk, Starbucks drink in hand, typing rapidly these important words. I feel like I look like a real blogger right now. Although it has proven my theory that it makes people view apartments a lot faster. But it’s cold outside and I’m not leaving. I’m currently typing this up at my little desk while people walk around and view my apartment.
