When nail salons first burst onto the scene circa 1983, Essie's polish found its true niche. Nail techs praised the range of fashion forward shades, along with Essie's outstanding durability, chip-resistant formula and whimsical names. These qualities appealed not only to the cosmetic professional but also to consumers. Essie's first celebrity clients included Barbara Streisand and Joan Rivers. Since then the A-list has grown to include: Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Julia Roberts, Britney Spears, Sandra Bullock, Sharon Stone, Renee Zellweger and Naomi Campbell among others.
Essie's color trends and seasonal collections are based upon her intuition and inspirations surrounding every new fashion season. Essie has always been committed to simple, classic elegance and her products continue to grace the pages of top fashion magazines.
