Perfect Pink
I have over 50 bottles of designer nail polish, and this color ranks in my top 5 favorites. It's just a gorgeous, feminine pink. It's a great go-to color, that's more chic than nude. Two coats is all you need, but make sure you paint carefully; it's prone to streaking. I just love this color.
Great for Spring
Awesome Color. perfect for spring and summer. I actually painted my nails pink and made a white heart. Ive gotten alot of compliments on the color.
Pretty
Nice color, however I feel that for it to look even I have to do 3 coats - just as with many other essie.

Not so sure ...
I originally purchased this nail color at a salon and loved it. I couldn't find it in the stores anymore, so I purchased two bottles from this seller. I am not so sure about the quality or authenticity of the color. It is not as concentrated as the store -bought color and requires three coats, where the original only needed the typical two coat application. A positive note: The delivery was quite punctual.

Not so hot
I loved the color so much when I went the the nail salon. When they finished I noticed thebubbles so they removed the clolor and tried it again. The same problem occurred ' When I ordered this product I was sure' it would work and to my surprise it bubbled up' So it must be the formula for this color' Otherwise the shipper was awesome' But the polish sucks!'
Beautiful unique color!
I love Essie polishes and Topless and Barefoot has quickly become one of my faves. It's my fave for work, and a fave 'neutral'. It's a fresh beigy pink. Light and feminine. So pretty. It has a hint of pink so that if you have a pale pink top, it'll match perfectly. My husband kept complementing it too and he has very good taste. :)
Lovely Formula; French Affair not for Medium Skintone
Pro: Essie's nailpolish formula is one of the best. It applies smoothly, it's easy to fix errors, and the colors are rich. Con: The polish does erode at the tip of the nail in a few days.About the shade: The shade French Affair is a bit more powdery blue than I expected. On fair skin it would look lovely, but on my medium skintone, the color failed to complement my complexion.


Essie A French Affair Collection Swatches, Photos, Review

Is a sheer, warmed white base with a duochromed, opalescent shimmer that flashes pink and gold. I used three coats in the swatches. Essie recommends it for layering, and if you’re not into sheer polishes, it would work well as a layering polish. I did like it on its own; it gave a soft, sheer look but the duochrome finish of the shimmer added interest. Zoya Bailey seems similar, perhaps not as much of a duochrome. Essie’s spring shades is a good mix of soft colors and pastels with a formula that applies easily and none of the pastel shades have a chalky look to them. I found about half needed two coats, but overall, three seemed like the ideal amount. The formula wasn’t too thick or thin, and it flowed evenly onto the nail. With a base/top coat, I had only minor tip wear after a week’s wear of Essie’s formula....
