Essie Where's My Chauffeur - Review


Where's My Chauffeur is a fun everyday color and even though we are in the tail end of spring, light blues and greens are popular for the summer as well.

This dark robin's egg blue brings a springtime feel without the potential for looking washed-out. Where's My Chauffeur is not a pastel but is still best for light skin tones. It can work on any tone to add color to your look, especially if you are transitioning between winter and spring.

We love this color because it's perfect for a snow day spent sledding with friends or the transition into the welcome of spring weather and style.

Our Rating: 4/5







Get Some:
Where's My Chauffeur is part of Essie’s Winter 2012 collection available now. This color can usually be found at places that normally carry Essie - Target, Walgreens, Ulta, etc. Be on the lookout because the Winter colors might be on a different display from the permanent Essie polishes.

Permanent Essie polishes can also be found at Kmart and Walmart. You also can look for Essie online on Essie.com, Nordstrom.com, Beauty.com, Ulta.com, and others.
Essie polishes vary in price from around $7.50-$8.50.

Where to Wear:

Where's My Chauffeur has a very daytime feel to it, so we recommend wearing this out to lunch with friends, at work to bring springtime and summer into the office, or even while soaking up the sun by the pool or working out at the gym. Overall, even though it's an everyday color, it'll add a splash of fun to your day and versatility to your get-up.
