I have always stayed away from nude polishes just because I didn't want dead looking hands. Personally, I think mannequins are so creepy and to have their hands...*shudder*. Also, from what I have seen in swatches, most nude or natural polishes tend to be on the sheer side. A combination of two of my hated things: mannequins and sheer polishes, no wonder i stayed away from them! recently Essie released their French Affair Collection and I was starting to hear buzz about a nude polish from this collection: Topless and Barefoot. There are two nudes in this collection, this one and a more beige one called Sand Tropez. I picked this one up out of curiosity (and one other that I will also do a blogpost on) and I'm so glad I did.
Topless and Barefoot looks like your standard beige-y nude but it has some pink undertones to it that are really flattering on my skintone. Also, this is definitely not a sheer polish. For this picture, I used two coats.
Essie's Topless and Barefoot is definitely the standout polish from the French Affair Collection from me. If I had to recommend one polish from the collection, Topless and Barefoot is the way to go. It's a great nude with a great application!
Did you get any polishes from Essie's French Affair Collection? What did you think of them? Do you own Essie's Topless and Barefoot?
