Super fun variety!
Yes, yes, yes! I have 2 Salon style nail polish racks in my apartment, and I have about 150 Essie nail polishes. I started noticing recently you got even though I have a med selection, some of them are getting old and drying out, and rather than just replacing the same colors, I wanted to also freshen up my collection. But unfortunately, when you go to the store or even when you shop online, it feels like it's the same 40 colors that everybody is selling or talking about. And since my collection is pretty expensive, it felt difficult to find anything I hadn't really seen before. I figured for 30 bucks, even if I got five polishes out of the 10 that I liked, even if duplicates of my current colors, it would be well worth it (since 5 new bottles = $45 before tax).<br /><br />Reading through the reviews, it seemed like people were either thrilled or really disappointed with the colors they received, but I found that even the disappointed reviews had colors that I could deal with, and I liked the idea of  the element of surprise, opening a package that I ordered but still not knowing what would be inside.<br /><br />Well, I received my order today, and I'm absolutely impressed. There are only maybe three or four shades that were in my collection, and of the rest, there were five that I had never even heard of before. Just because there are only so many colors in the rainbow, I think Essie probably repurposes colors with different names on them, sort of like Yankee Candle does with naming their scents. (For example, I would have bet anything that "skinny dip" was either sugar daddy or ballet slippers, and "lighten the mood" made me think of "between the seats.)<br /><br />I got a nice variety in my selection, and none of them seemed like fillers. Pics attached. I would definitely buy from this seller again!
