Your Essie Nail Polish Bottles Were Just Rendered Vintage
Welcome to a new era.

Chances are your bathroom cabinet is an IRL rainbow of Essie nail polish bottles, easily distinguishable thanks to their signature design. But Essie is putting a new twist on their latest collection in the most literal way possible—by giving their bottle a subtle S-shape inspired by the "covetable, twirling dresses of the runway."
The new bottle (which was revealed at the Met Gala) houses the brand's Gel Couture collection, and is broken into the following four sub-collections: Atelier, First Look, Fashion Show, and After Party. And yes, the polishes have the most Essie names ever, including Fairy Tailor, Caviar Bar, and Hang Up the Heels.
The collection features 42 new gel shades (expect them to last around 14 days with no UV lamp needed), and will be available in June for $11.50 per bottle. Mark your calendars/prepare your bathroom.
