NOTD: Essie Leading Lady

Leading Lady is part of Essie's winter collection and is a deep red jelly polish filled with red glitter.


I think this polish lasted about two hours in my house after being delivered before I couldn't wait any longer to apply it.

It was a bit tricky to apply as the glitter didn't go on evenly, but after two coats and a little patience, I got my desired look. I did give it a top coat as it felt a bit rough and was also more matte than expected.


It's a gorgeous colour and my only regret is not buying it earlier as it would have been the perfect Christmas polish. It makes me think of Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz every time I look at it.


I bought this as part of the winter collection minis set but it's sold separately as a full size bottle in Boots for £7.99.

Grab it quick before they bring out the spring collection!
