Memorial Day is upon us and I have fallen hard for the new summer neon shades from Essie Cosmetics!  There is something about their electric bright shades that wonderfully compliment summer-kissed skin tones!

Last week I borrowed some perky purple from my 15-year-old daughter for my toenails.  This deep violet shade adds a fun, almost gemstone-like quality to your nails.

This week, I ended up purchasing flirty fucessie-neon-collectionhsia, a brilliant neon hot pink, which once dry looks very matte in its appearance.  My same 15-year-old made the statement that it has a similar finish to spray paint (and how in the heck would she know that?)!

To add some additional shine I decided to buy Essie’s shine-e “polish refresher.”  By applying this on top, not only did it enhance the bright color, it transformed the matte finish into a lacquered high-gloss.  Can even see my reflection in them!  My little girls and their friends immediately “oooohhh”ed after discovering my brightly polished fingernails last night.

You can purchase the Essie Neon Nail Polish in funky limelight, punchy pink, flirty fuchsia or perky purple ($8 each) and Essie’s shine-e ($15) at Apothica.com.
