They're so similar, that you may not have even noticed I'm wearing two different polishes in the photo above :P Urban Jungle is on my little and ring fingers, and Lighten The Mood on the other two. Lighten The Mood is an off-white neutral, very similar to my favourite Essie Urban Jungle, as well as Mixtaupe from the 90s collection. True to its name, something about this polish really glows. It's probably the same pearl as Blue-tiful Horizon, but I can't blame Essie for wanting to sneak something so pretty in the collection more than once. I was really excited to try Let It Glow, a bright coral pink with copper pearl. Once swatched though, it's obvious they're very different colours! They have the same milky finish, but Less Is Aura is much deeper and rosier. Since I liked it so much, I thought it might have some similarities to my all-time favourite beige, Nails Inc Basil Street. Nails Inc Basil Street / Essie Less Is Aura Luckily for me, Less Is Aura actually suits me! I didn't expect it to, since it has slight rosy tones, but it really does work.

Nude/beige shades are so hit-and-miss for me-and I'm guessing for most people too, because beige really plays off personal skin tone. Less Is Aura is a sorta warm but rosy darker beige. As if that beautiful copper wasn't enough, the formula is also easy to work with. This one is very unique to my collection.ĭepending on the lighting, it can lean more blue, but it generally sits in blurple territory. I'm not usually big on pearl finishes, but this combination is so pretty and mesmerizing. This is honestly one of my favourite polish collections in recent memory-a great mix of colours that are contrasting yet cohesive and definitely gives me desert vibes without being too on-the-nose about the theme.īlue-tiful Horizon has a slightly muted, kind of indigo blue base and rose-gold, coppery pearl to it.

Hi all! I just wrote my final two weeks ago and have spent some time decompressing, including finishing Persona 5 (now starting a replay on New Game+ mode :P) With all this newfound free time, I finally got around to editing photos and organizing my thoughts on Essie's Desert Mirage collection.
