My First Essie Polish - A Review & A Possible Dupe?

I've been into pale pink polishes for a while now (and by while, I mean a month ha). I picked up Easy Going by SinfulColors and loved it, then I saw Essie's pale pink in Fuji a week later and just had to pick that one up too.

Review: I've heard mixed reviews on Essie's polishes. Some are really opaque and cover completely in 1 or 2 coats and some need 4 coats for best results. Fuji needs 3 coats for the best coverage and depending on how light you coat them it might even need 4 coats. The lasting power on this polish is great though. After about 5 days there's some minor chipping, but nothing serious or really noticeable. I see why these polishes are on the pricier side, they offer a huge range of colors from trendy to classic so everyone is bound to find the right shade for them.

      

                  Please disregard the crappy polish job I did. I was in a hurry.  Easy going on the left finger and Fuji on the right.

Comparison: I wanted to compare Fuji to Easy Going. Fuji is slightly more pink and the consistency is thicker than Easy Going, Although if you were to do 2 coats of Fuji and 3 coats of EG then the shades look much more similar. If you don't want to shell out the $8 on Essie than definitely look into the SinfulColors line, their polishes are only $2. Just keep in mind, the lasting power of the SinfulColors brand is nowhere near as good as Essie's. This is definitely one of those cases where you get what you pay for.

Do any of you have either shade? What is your favorite Essie polish?
