Essie Maximillian Strasse-Her – £7.99
Maximillian Strasse-Her is definitely a special nail polish, which is probably the reason why it’s sold out in most places. It’s a bit of a colour chameleon – a pale grey, sage coloured cream polish that’s unlike most I’ve seen, but with a little hint of duck egg blue so whatever light you’re in you get a different hue.
It looks good for all manner of occasions, it’s muted enough to pass for a quirky twist on a neutral so would be good for work yet beguiling enough to wear on a night out.
When first applied it does look a little streaky but seems to level itself out. I also find I need two coats as it’s just a little too sheer for my liking with a single one. In terms of longevity it’s similar to other Essie polishes. A couple of days or so with a top coat before you get tipwear.
If you’re out and about and spot this I’d recommend snaffling it up and adding to your collection, you’ll be glad you did.
Wow this looks like such a stunning shade and so unique! I think this is fab for Autumn and I will definitely be on the lookout for this 🙂
