About this deal

Kate famously wore Essie's Allure on her wedding day 11 years ago now, and the Queen always wore the brand's Ballet Slippers, a nude pink-tan shade that is really very elegant. Essie Sugar Daddy and OPI bubble bath are both warm-toned pink nail polishes. However, OPI bubble bath is a definite peach pink, while Sugar Daddy is a little brighter. Essie Sugar Daddy and Mademoiselle are perfect for formal settings like job interviews and business meetings.

If you’re not a nail art or polish layering fan, apply Essie Sugar Daddy as a stand-alone color for an effortlessly natural manicure. What Number is Essie Sugar Daddy? Essie Mademoiselle has been my favorite sheer pink polish for years. However, When I found Essie Sugar Daddy, I instantly knew it also belonged to my ever-growing pink nail polish collection. However, you can make your manicure last up to two weeks if you seal it with Essie’s gel setter top coat instead. Drying Time If you select nail colors based on seasons like me, you’ll love these two shades because you can wear them all year round. However, I love wearing the light pink Mademoiselle during summer, and the bright pink Sugar Daddy works well with all my spring outfits. Ease of Application These nail polishes last at least one week before they show signs of wear. This duration only applies if you started with a base coat and finished with an Essie top coat.Allure had a strange enough beginning as it was created especially for the birthday of the US beauty magazine of the same name. It has a more buttery, cream tone than the Queen's go-to, but it's believed that she is a fan of both, and of wearing nothing at all on her nails. If there was anyone who Kate Middleton took manicure tips from it was the late Queen Elizabeth because both wore varnish from the same brand, Essie, and it's on sale right now. Kate Middleton Nails Kate Middleton's nude manicure Pic: Getty Essie Mademoiselle is the easiest sheer polish to apply. The brand tweaked its formula to make it more self-leveling; therefore, it does not streak. On the other hand, Sugar Daddy is the true sheer pink. It has no hidden undertones and retains color even if you build up the coats. A good dupe of this shade from the same brand is Essie Hi maintenance. Number of Coats

Sheer nail polishes don’t always have to be boring, stand-alone colors. You can switch techniques or mix them with other colors to create more artistic and creative manicures. What's most impressive is its staying power. After all, it shouldn't be that hard to find a dupe for a pale pink nail polish. But the texture sets it apart from the rest. "Many try to capture the soft, neutral pink color, but what's truly unique about Ballet Slippers is it's not-quite-sheer, not-quite-opaque look," says Remark. "The result is a soft pink veil of color that conceals nail imperfections and flatters your nails all while remaining clean and sheer." Plus, that translucence means it works for just about everyone, which might explain why it's a regular for brides (so much so that some bridal experts hold it as the standard). "It doesn’t compete with your dress and complements rings perfectly," says Sarah Gibson Tuttle, founder of L.A. nail salon Olive & June. "It's been a bride favorite forever." Regarding sheerness, Sugar Daddy is a true sheer pink polish, while OPI bubble bath is more opaque. Nevertheless, you can faintly see your nail line through a 2-coat bubble bath manicure. Essie Mademoiselle And there's always one element that grabs people's attention, Kate's nails, she is a diehard fan of nude or clear nail polish and never veers into red as her late mother-in-law Princess Diana often did, or berry like Meghan Markle. Essie Allure nail polish is a sheer white nail colour with a natural hint of pink. This soft neutral white nail varnish is perfect for any season and occasion, but especially bridal. Fit for a princess and a royal wedding. It can also be used with Blanc shade to create a perfect French manicure.So I tried creating a cute Ombre look using these pink sheers, and they turned out divine. And the best part is that you only need one polish to create the Ombre effect. Here’s how. After applying the last coat, the polish will be dry to the touch within one hour. However, one hour is not enough, especially if you apply three full coats. On the other hand, Essie Sugar Daddy works best for darker skin tones because it is a brighter and more vibrant pink. Occasions to Wear the Nail Polish

The main similarities between Essie Ballet slippers and Sugar Daddy are that they are from the same brand and are sheer pink. However, for the color, Sugar Daddy is a warm pink, while Essie ballet slippers look milkier with pink undertones. If you want to apply these two nail polishes easily, start with a smoothing base coat to prime the nail. Essie has the amazing Smooth-e basecoat, perfect for prepping nails before applying sheer polish. Longevity One of the most popular ways of wearing Essie Sugar Daddy and Mademoiselle is as a base for nail art. I love nail art, but sometimes the colors turn out bright and draw too much attention to my fingers.However, looking closely, Mademoiselle has slight milky tones that make it more of a pink-white sheer. Nevertheless, the whitish tones of Mademoiselle are not that obvious, especially if you compare it to Essie Ballet slippers – another classic sheer pink nail polish. Essie’s Sugar Daddy is a formula designed to be sheer and never disappoint. It remains see-through, showing your nail bed and line no matter how many coats you apply. It is the perfect shade for a done but not overdone manicure look. What Color is Essie Sugar Daddy? Essie describes their Sugar Daddy shade either as #15 or core 15. I’ve always avoided confusing numbering as I did with other pinks like Ballet slippers or Mademoiselle. Other Sheer Pink Nail Polishes Often Compared to Essie Sugar Daddy
