I get my nails and toes painted once a month for good measure, but I'm beginning to keep a small Essie Collection at home, especially for touch ups when I don't need to spend another 10 on a manicure, or when the manicure tends to chip a day or so after... I have REAL nails, so this is not to offend those with gels, schalack or anything else but real nails just chip faster!!!!!!!!! Great bargain and way cheaper than most retail outlet discount chains, including the shipping, if any at all.  My Key West color!! :)
