They Turned Blue?

elizzyv44

a year ago

I bought this color to be an off-white shade and when I used it on my nails for the first time I quickly realized it was the sheerest shade I’d ever used and so I had to layer it under another white polish I had to get the coverage I was looking for. I used the Essie gel hi-shine top coat to finish the nail look and I was happy with the outcome. Then I wore a blue dress and they started looking ombré, which I can only assume was from the color transferring?

Hello elizzyv44! Thank you for sharing your experience with the color Tuck It In My Tux. We wish you could see the results you were hoping for with this ivory white color. Its not a true sheer nor is it a true opaque creme finish. We're pleased to hear you finally got the coverage with all the layers but we have not heard of color transfer with dried nail enamel. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 866-313-7845 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

BEST milky, creamy white color I've ever used

This is hands down my favorite nail polish color of all time! It's a perfect creamy color and love that it is a little sheer but layers well and is less sheer as you layer, with still a little of the natural nail peeking through. It is truly truly perfection

doesn't stay on

I liked the colour and was ok with having to layer it but it does not stay on! It had been drying for over 30 minutes and it still came off like putty

goes great with this shade

no because it keeps coming off

favourite colour

red

no, I do not recommend this product.

Streaky and too sheer

Katherine123123

I like the idea of sheer, but after trying several times, I cannot create a sheer coat with streaks. To overcome streakiness, I put on 3 or so layers until it was finally even coverage. It looked nice at that point, but then when I went to remove it, it was a total nightmare. I had to scrub with nail polish remover for what felt like at least 10 minutes. Maybe a professional would have success painting on this color. I probably won't use this color again unless desperate.

no, I do not recommend this product.

Beautiful creamy white. 2 coats did the trick for me. Not streaky at all. Just use a base coat and the push and pull method for color application.

yes, I recommend this product.

WAY TO LOOK THIN

C Lisa

I bought 8/19/2017 for a wedding. Absolutely horrible. So thin that it was hard to cover my nails. Tried another coat and still too hard to cover nail. Is there a secret to application? Very messy.

no, I do not recommend this product.

Takes Effort

One coat, two coat, three coat, four... This nail polish takes some work and I am not a fan. Pretty color, but incredibly sheer unless you use a lot of coats but it's incredibly sheer and takes forever to dry.

no, I do not recommend this product.

We're sorry to hear the tuck it in my tux does not have as much coverage as you were hoping for. This shade is intended to have a sheer finish. It sounds like you might prefer a similar shade with more coverage. Take a look at the shade urban jungle; http://www.essie.com/Colors/neutrals/urban-jungle.aspx In the meantime, if you would like to speak to us directly, please call us @ 888.448.9617 M-F 9am-5:30pm EST and give the reference number 2545397
