Box Contains 1 x Essie Nail Lacquer 13.5 ml, 50 Bordeaux Review: Perfect Milky Lilac for Indian/South Asian skin-tone ❤️ - I was initially skeptical as most light colour nail polishes will look so white and washed out on me. After a lot of research on tiktok lol, I picked Lilacism. This came out so beautifully! I definitely recommend it for brown skin and warm under-toned, as it is not too light nor not too bright of a shade. It has the right amount of colour imo, to wear it like a nude shade. This will be so perfect for spring/summer or tbh any season really. The colour was not so thick yet so smooth and not streaky, very fluid and easy to apply. I applied only 1 coat and it was enough. I sealed it off with Essie's gel couture top coat for a gel-like finish. Review: Beautiful colour - Great quality nail vanish. Beautiful colour. I apply 2 of coats and a clear varnish over the top. ## Features - SALON QUALITY COLOUR: Essie original nail polish provides a salon quality, vegan formula for high shine and glossy finish. - HIGH COVERAGE: Intense rich colour with high coverage and outstanding durability. - EASY GLIDE BRUSH: Easy-glide brush for quick, even professional application on nails. - APPLICATION: Pair with essie's all in one base coat and topcoat and finish with essie's apricot on a roll cuticle oil. - OVER 100 SHADES: With over 100 shades to fall in love with, our colours are inspired by the latest fashion and cultural trends to make your manicure possibilities endless. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B013CFXRJK | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Benefits | Light up and care for your outdoor image | | Best Sellers Rank | 1,671 in Beauty ( See Top 100 in Beauty ) 17 in Nail Polish | | Brand | essie | | Brand Name | essie | | Colour | Bordeaux Dark Red | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 8,935 Reviews | | Finish Type | Shimmery | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00000030095526 | | Included Components | 1 x Gel Nail Polish | | Item Dimensions | 30 x 30 x 70 centimetres | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Weight | 0.05 Grams | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 30 x 30 x 70 centimetres | | Liquid Volume | 13.5 Millilitres | | Liquid volume | 13.5 Millilitres | | Manufacturer | L'Oréal | | Manufacturer Part Number | 3600530739998 | | Material Features | Dibutyl Phthalate Free, Formaldehyde Free | | Material Type Free | Dibutyl Phthalate Free, Formaldehyde Free | | Model Name | essie Original Nail Polish | | Model Number | B1867400 | | Nail Polish Type | base | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 50 | | Special Features | Excellent Coverage, Durable, Chip Resistant | | Special feature | Excellent Coverage, Durable, Chip Resistant | | Target Audience | women | | Type | base | | UPC | 000030095526 | | Unit Count | 13.5 millilitre | ## Product Details - **Brand:** essie - **Colour:** Bordeaux Dark Red - **Finish type:** Shimmery - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 30 x 30 x 70 centimetres - **Item form:** Liquid - **Liquid volume:** 13.5 Millilitres - **Material Type Free:** Dibutyl Phthalate Free, Formaldehyde Free - **Model name:** essie Original Nail Polish - **Special feature:** Excellent Coverage, Durable, Chip Resistant - **Type:** base ## Images ![Nail Polish Original, Bordeaux Nail Polish, Dark Red Nail Varnish, Burgundy Cherry Red Nails, Glossy Shine and High Coverage, Salon Quality Finish, Vegan Formula - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61QhBWO-DjL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this brand cruelty free?** A: No, is not, that’s another reason I won’t buy ever again. **Q: does it come off easily?** A: It was easy to get off with normal nail varnish remover.

I apply 2 of coats and a clear varnish over the top. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great colour, but does chip *by F***A on 5 December 2024* I really like this Essie nail polish in Licorice, but it does have its limitations. Full disclosure, the first night I wore it, I was in a rush, and I only applied it in a single layer, with no base coat or top coat. It was very easy to apply, and the brush was good enough to do the 3 stroke application. It dried quickly, and looked good with a touch of gloss, but it chipped slightly before I even got to the venue. I removed it the next morning and it was tricky to remove, as the nail polish remover just seemed to move it around the nail, even though I used my tried and tested method of a cotton wool pad soaked in remover placed over the nail, press down for a few seconds, and then slide away, taking the polish with it. It took three tries per nail to remove most of the single layer of polish, and it did stain my nails to a greyish colour, but I can't complain about that, as it was my choice not to use a base coat, and the staining disappeared after a normal day of hand washing and washing up. The second time I used it, I used both base and top coat, which did give it a high level of shine. It chipped by day 2, and it was so bad by day 3 that I had to remove it. Again, it was tricky to remove, and there was some faint staining. That said, I would buy it again, knowing that I could only wear it for a night out, or a couple of days. I really like the depth of black, and for me, it’s worth that extra bit of hassle. ## Frequently Bought Together - essie Original Nail Polish, 50 bordeaux, Dark Red Nail Polish, 13.5 ml - Essie Care Stay Longer Premium Longwear Top Coat - 13.5ml - essie Original Nail Polish, 13 mademoiselle, Sheer Pink Nail Polish, 13.5 ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/49287805-nail-polish-original-bordeaux-nail-polish-dark-red-nail-varnish](https://www.desertcart.us/products/49287805-nail-polish-original-bordeaux-nail-polish-dark-red-nail-varnish) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
