I knew Essie was was going to be sold at mass marketers come next year, so it looks like they launched a bit early.

They were retailing for $7.37 (why does Walmart always have strange prices?), and they look like they are the colors that Essie has been selling.

The bottles are the same size and shape, with the embossed "essie" on the side, but these also have screen-printed lettering on them as well. I didn't pick any up, because, well, I'm not a big fan of Essie's formula, and I can't imagine that it is better now that it is being sold at mass market outlets. Maybe I'll pick one up next time I'm there.
I love Essie and the packaging is ok. Ill pick it up if they have a sale!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's just me, but the formula always feels so very thick when I apply it. I may just have to go back and grab one to see if the formula is any different.
ReplyDeleteOh...Walmart? Really? The essie bottles I have don't have essie in white. It's raised on the glass. I wonder if it's so that essie can distinguish where it's been sold/who carries it?
ReplyDeleteCarina - Essie made an announcement a few weeks back that they would be going to mass market retailers (like Walmart). I'm guessing that this redesign of the bottle has been in effect since they were bought by L'Oreal earlier this year.
