Essie Winter 2008 Collection

We still believe that one of our favorite experiences since starting Makeup Bag over two years ago was meeting Essie Weingarten, the founder of Essie, at a trade show in 2006.

This season, she’s rolling out a jewel-toned collection that is everything our heart desires and more. Classy reds, shimmery violets and a bonus golden hue to top it off:

  • Bold & Beautiful – Rich, ruby garnet
  • Damsel in a Dress – Oh-so-deep currant
  • It’s Genius – A violet quartz shimmer
  • Rock Star Skinny – Glamorous crimson red
  • Sexy Divide – Electric Violet Temptation
  • Shifting Power – Sizzling molten gold

We MUST have every shade!

Essie Winter 2008 Collection is available at various salons and retail locations and online at essie.com.
