There’s a brand new Essie collection, and it’s the Essie Expressie FX Collection, which has launched in the brand’s Expressie, quick-drying formulation.
We recently saw the launch of the Essie Isle See You Later Summer 2022 Trend collection, as well as the Essie Hostess With The Mostess Collection, and now, this latest collection is a four-piece collection of nail polish top coats, which is different to any of the other Expressie collections we’ve seen.

The Essie Expressie FX Collection Summer 2022 includes four different shades, each of which are described as being a Quick Dry Effect Filter, and come in 10ml / .33 fl oz bottles. The Essie Expressie polishes do have smaller bottles compared to the original Essie Nail Polishes, and they retail for $8.99 each.

Essie Holographic Expressie FX Nail Polish – A quick dry nail polish with prismatic glitter and a shimmer finish, use over any Expressie color for an instant silver holographic sparkle effect.
Essie Gold Glitter Expressie FX Nail Polish – A quick dry nail polish with yellow, orange, and red glitter and a shimmer finish, use over any Expressie color for an instant 24k liquid gold effect.

I think all four of the Essie Expressie FX Collection Summer 2022 shades look really pretty. It’s nice to see a mainstream nail polish brand create more interesting top coats, as usually Indie nail polish brands are the go-to whenever you want multidimensional top coats. My favorite shade in the Essie Expressie FX Collection would have to be Chrome, but all four look amazing, and they’re available right now.
