Essie hits the streets

It was a very happy moment when I first saw Essie nail polishes popping up in my local Boots and Superdrug, and rejoiced that I was freely able to get my mitts on this cult brand and their gorgeous collection of nail colours. I had a little Essie splurge in Boots last week and treated myself to a couple of their new pastel polishes, perfect for the summer!

To celebrate the launch of Essie in Boots and Superdrug, and to conveniently coincide with the dazzling Diamond Jubilee celebrations happening across central London, Essie are sending six manicurists to the hit the city’s streets, equipped with an army of nail polishes and a mission to paint! They will be offering free manicures to all, followed by a guide to the nearest Boots or Superdrug to check out the full 70 stunning shades on offer. These manicures on the move will be taking place at various locations across London including Covent Garden, Trafalgar Square, White City shopping centre, Kensington Palace Gardens, South Kensington near the V&A museum and the Royal Albert Hall.
