Chips quickly

2 years ago
I usually buy Essie Expressie polishes because I don't have a lot of time to do my nails. I bought this one because I really wanted a brown shade and there wasn't anything comparable in the Expressie line. I thought I'd at least get more longevity out of it, but no. I've tried it twice, and both times the color chipped after just a couple of days (I usually get 5 days out of the Expressie polishes!). Disappointing.

Exactly what I was looking for

2 years ago
I was looking for a taupe-y, brown shade for fall, and No To-Do is right on the money! It’s a very chic shade that is not exactly chocolate, not exactly grey, not exactly mauve; precisely what I wanted! I typically buy indie polishes, but Essie is my favorite widely available polish brand. It goes on buttery smooth, is very forgiving, and is opaque in one coat (though I usually do two). Don’t overlook this fab shade!

yes, I recommend this product.

This color is no exception, its a nice blend of rusty brown that really compliments my skin color. The polish quality is what you would expect. Doesn't chip easliy and dries well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a beautiful nail polish! It applies neatly and easily, resulting in a gorgeous deep brown color. The polish itself is very durable, with very little chipping after application. I have gotten so many compliments on this polish! I would definitely recommend it.

Nice color collection

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Essie never disappoints when it comes to the latest, trendiest colors. This past season, chocolate was all the rage and no-to-do was right on point. Essie's polishes are durable and always go on smoothly.

yes, I recommend this product.

Warm Brown

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed this color of nail polish because it's a nice, warm brown when it sets. I love that this nail polish is also vegan with no testing done on animals, so I can use this feeling good ethically. It goes on smooth and dries well. I didn't have to worry about the nail polish clumping.

Classic Essie color.

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Classic Essie color. Many people have asked about the color. And now the bottle has a wider brush so even I can achieve a good result when polishing my own nails. It's opaque and thick and great quality. I love the glossy finish as well. Perfect for the holidays.

yes, I recommend this product.

not a fan of the color

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brown is a weird color to try to put on your nails but this specific shade was a no for me. you need at least three or four coats to get the color brown in the bottle. Even then, it's a weird mix between chocolate and a tan shade which i don't really like.

no, I do not recommend this product.

Hi there! Thank you for trying out the color ‘no to-do’. We wish you could see the results you were hoping for with this deep coffee red undertones. This is a cream finish nail enamel and should not take more that 2 coats for a perfect deep brown color result.

Great neutral color

Gorgeous color!

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to try the new line of Vegan and 8 Free Nail Polish from Essie!! The colors are so pretty, especially the Not to Do shade, such a gorgeous tone of brown!!! The vegan formula is super creamy and goes on well! A great application!! My only issue is how fast it chips! Not even a day later and all of my nails were chipped already. I even tried it with a top coat. So I'm a bit bummed about it not lasting because I truly love everything else about it!!

yes, I recommend this product.

Hi there jesvkxx! Thank you for trying out the nail color ‘no to-do’. How great to hear you love the color for this deep coffee brown with red undertones. We just wish you could see the results you were hoping for. For longest wear, be sure to start with a base coat like our Here To Stay, to boost color adhesion to the nail. Follow with 2 coats of color and a top coat. https://www.essie.com/base-and-top-coats/base-coats/here-to-stay

Pretty Color!

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a nice pretty color, perfect for fall! True to Essie quality, the color goes on really well, smooth and easy to get a beautiful manicure at home. The color is pigmented enough where two coats is perfect for great color and coverage. With an essie topcoat, I have had it on for about a week now and haven't had any chipping or peeling at all. This is definitely my new favorite, go-to color for fall!

yes, I recommend this product.

Beautiful nail polish!

3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Essie no to-do nail polish! The color is long-lasting, rich and gorgeous. It is a very high quality polish. It doesn't chip easily. There isn't a strong odor, and it dries very quickly. You get a generous amount of nail polish with a brush that is perfect for applying. I very highly recommend this gorgeous nail polish!

yes, I recommend this product.
