I think Turquoise & Caicos is the color I’ve been waiting for. I have tried lots of greens lately: Mint Candy Apple, OPI Jade is the New Black, the Up & Away collection from CG – to no avail. This looks like the middle-of-the-road green I’ve been waiting for!

Oohh, I think I like this better than OPI Summer Flutter. Christine, are you going to swatch these? I really think Turquoise and Caicos sounds especially gorgeous!

These look fun and pretty unique–especially for Essie! I want to try Lapis of Luxury and Turquoise & Caicos. I’d be curious to see how the other two look in swatches. I have a feeling Playa del Platinum wouldn’t flatter me.

I like that these are colorful, yet delicate. The grey is ok. I prefer clear polish over a sheer gray. The Magenta reminds me of a slightly softer Essie’s Card Again–very nice, but not a must have. I bought the blue with sparkles from Barielle’s Wildflower, which I love. Won’t be looking at more mid-toned blues. But the mid-tone green looks soft and unique. Not tacky on me like minty greens, or loud and frosty like all the greens I’m seeing.

The turquoise one is mine, despite having sooo many turquoise colors already. And it’s dangerous, but we sell Essie at work, so I always snag my colors before they get on the shelf. 🙁

This is gorgeous!!! I didn’t buy the Spring collection since it didn’t caught my attention, but this collection is absolutely perfect, will get it for sure!!!! Will probably get them in the regular sizes, since I usually buy the mini kit, but these ones are too pretty to be buying it in minis.

I’m loving those colors. Essie has a lot of really pretty shades in their collection. I’d probably get all of them, except for Splash of Grenadine, just because I already own very similar shades. Lapis of Luxury, in particular, is practically making me drool.

Essie polishes have the best formula in my experience. I like all the colors except Playa del Platinum (doesn’t come across as very summer-y)

The colors are beautiful but i was hopeing for a nice yellow this summer from essie i dont get the platinum, the turqoise & caicos is very nice they should of put yellow beside it and call it jamaican sunshine i think, and not just saying this because i am from jamaica it’is call summer resort collection afterall i love essie maybe next year they will have a nice yellow.

Ahhhh I’m so happy, I FINALLY found the collection!! I work at shoppers drug mart and we have Essie except we don’t have this collection yet.. I was looking everywhere including online for decent prices shipping to Canada and no luck.. Then today I hopped into Trade Secrets and not only were the prices better than they would be with my discount at Shoppers, but they had all four colours available and PLENTY of them!! I quickly snatched up one of each colour hehe.
