This was one of the first Essie polishes I tried and I hated it. It was runny and streaky. I know I'm in the minority here, but I'm also not a fan of the color.

I've had this polish I know for over a year and I'm just now using it. Deep dark chocolate brown, 1st coat goes on streaky but the 2nd one is full color. It does tend to take a while to dry too. Great for the fall.

I'm one of those people who needs an almost-black vampy shade in every color Lady Godiva is my go-to vampy brown. Lovely deep dark chocolate color in a blackened base with a glossy cream finish. The shade is so rich looking next to my fair skin. Lady Godiva does have subtle red tones to it but it's not an overly warm brown it's balanced enough that a cool-tone loving girl like me can wear it with confidence. It's an utterly perfect shade for fall and winter. Three coats to complete opacity, wears beautifully. Would definitely repurchase and recommend this gorgeous vampy brown! :)

This is a really great deep, dark chocolate polish that has amazing staying power. It's a cream, no frost, two coats gives you a deep chocolate w/barely a reddish undertone. Huge thumbs up for lasting through a week of cold weather, hot baths, and soapy dishes!

This is the perfect shade of chocolate brown with just a hint of red. It does apply streaky and does require at least two coats, and three is ideal. But it looks good on short or long nails and with a good top coat looks glossy and rich.
