Today's post is going to be all about the Essie Neon Collection for 2014. The collection celebrates stylish girls around the world struck by fashion fever. It consists of six gorgeous, bright and fun shades, which screams Summer. I have five of the six nail polishes from this collection to show you today, so let's get started! :-)

 ♥ Essie Nail Lacquer in Too Taboo. 

Too Taboo is a florescent fushia berry.  

 ♥ Essie Nail Lacquer in Vices Versa. 

Vices Versa is a juicy lime. 

 ♥ Essie Nail Lacquer in I'm Addicted. 

I'm Addicted is a beautiful aquamarine blue.  

♥ Essie Nail Lacquer in Chills & Thrills. 

 

Chills & Thrills is a supercharged blue violet.   

 

The last nail polish in this collection is called Serial Shopper. It's a bright coral, unfortunately I don't have that one to show you today! :-) 

All five of the nail polishes in the Neon Collection are very easy to apply. They didn't go on streaky, patchy or look uneven on my nails. They have a very thin formula, which makes them quite sheer. Most of them need at least three coats to look completely opaque on the nails, with the exception of Too Taboo and Chills & Thrills. They were fine with just two coats. I really like all five of the nail polishes in Essie's Neon Collection, but my favorites are definitely Too Taboo, Chills & Thrills and I'm Addicted.

 

Overall, I really like this collection from Essie despite all the negative reviews that it's been getting. I think that the colors are beautiful, bright and very fun but they are not neons in my opinion. Neons too me are shades that are so bright that they hurt my eyes when I look at them, lol. Some of my favorite neon nail polishes are I'm With The Lifeguard and Flip Flop Fantasy by China Glaze. I also love Pink Parka by Essie. If you want the colors from the Essie Neon Collection to pop and look a little brighter, try applying them over a white base. It works great! :-) 

Where to buy?
