     You can see that in direct sunlight the polish looks grey with a bit of a sage-y green undertone.

     Review time! As excited as I was to try this polish after hearing all of the wonderful reviews, I wasn't blown away by the formula. Yes, it has great opacity- but for me it has a few downfalls as well: 1) The formula in my bottle was a little thick, 2) There were minor brush-stroke issues (not horrible) and 3) The polish seemed to drag very easily. By "drag" I mean when I painted it onto the nail the brush would drag the polish off if I swept it over one too many times. I painted my nails just like I do with any other polish and I almost never have this problem. On the one hand, it could be a good thing because it shows that the polish dries very quickly. On the other hand, it means you have to paint fast in order to avoid the dragging.

     I do, however, LOVE the color. Therefore, I would definitely repurchase this nail polish. I think that the color is so freakin' amazing that I don't even mind the formula (which isn't even THAT bad).

     And that concludes my review of Essie's "For the Twill of it", I definitely recommend trying it out! ♡
