NOTD Essie's "Hot Coco"

Today's mani features another hard-to-find Essie color called "Hot Coco", a oft creamy brown color that gave me some trouble. The first layer was so quick drying and streaky that I almost gave up on it - though the second leveled it out nicely. Below is 2 layers of Hot Coco with a Gelous top coat, and dotted accents of "Selena" (Nicole by OPI) and "For Audrey" (China Glaze)

Overall, it's a nice warm brown that does in fact remind me of hot chocolate, though with spring coming up I'm not sure how often I'll wear it. Definitely meant for the fall and winter months. What do you think?

Happy Polishing!
