I'm a little surprised, but I really like this color. When I first got the bottle in the mail, I wasn't sure that it would look good on me... but it's a really great color for fall. It's a nice, warm purple, and in the sun it has a bronze glow. It went on really well not too thick not to thin and hasn't chipped much over the last few days of wear. Overall, I'm glad I took a chance on this one, and I would definitely repurchase.

Warm-toned, medium bricky rose with a faint, pearly shimmer. Very flattering on me (light skin, yellow undertones). It's warm enough not to "pop" too much against my skin, deep enough to be noticeable. But it is a rather earthy color, so it's softer than straight-up red or dark pink, which can look a bit stark on my scrawny li'l hands. I like this one a lot.

This is a gorgeous dark cherry red, with a very glossy satin finish. I can't imagine anyone not liking this color. It's one of the few reds I can pull off on my hands without feeling uncomfortable. Double Indemnity is from Essie's Winter 2004 Frozen Assets Collection.

Double Dip is from Essie's 2004 fall collection, Luscious. It's a warm shimmery brown that is pretty, but somehow fails to truly impress. Application is very nice and it dries to a glossy finish. It's just a bit boring on me, but it has the potential to be beautiful on the right skintone.Pics:Nails continued >>

I'm a little torn on this one, because the colour is really pretty and it suits me, but I don't care for the finish. Double Indemnity is a rich, midtoned wine red with bronze shimmer, which is perfect for me. However, it has a very foil-y, borderline frosty finish, particularly under bright light, which kind of kills it for me. It does, however, apply beautifully and with no streaks at all.Pics:Nails continued >>
