Essence Legends of the Sky Collection

I hope you are enjoying your Wednesday! Today, I have four of the new Essence Legends of the Sky Collection polishes to show you. I noticed the display at Ulta last week (Nouveau Cheap has a great post about the entire display). The displays in the U.S. only seem to have four of the six polishes. I grabbed all four.



From index to pinky, they are I Wear My Flying Goggles at Night, Like Leo's Pilot Jacket, No Better Way to Sky, and I Am a Viator. Two coats each. I was honestly a little weary of all but the orange. But I could not pass up a limited edition Essence collection. Once painted on, I fell in love. They seem a bit more suited for Fall, rather than Summer, but are beautiful nonetheless.

I Wear My Flying Goggles at Night is a dusty khaki green creme with gray undertones. Excuse the bubbles. I smudged the polish and topcoat. My attempt at smoothing gave slight bubbles. Like Leo's Pilot Jacket is a dusty army green creme. I assume this is a reference to The Aviator, though I'm not sure why. No Better Way to Sky is a light burnt orange creme, almost dusty instead of burnt. I Am a Viator is a milk chocolate creme. The application on all of them is perfect; what I've come to expect from Essence.

The limited edition Legends of the Sky Collection retail for $2 at Ulta.

    1. The U.S. hasn't had a limited edition collection from Essence in a long time. I literally gasped when I saw the display. Thank goodness no one was around.

    1. Essence is a European company. We don't have many of their polishes here. If you look at their website, under products you can find what stores carry them. www.essence.eu
