Essence Colour & Go Nail Polish in WAKE UP!

Yech, where to start? Yea, it was only .99, but there are a lot of under $5.00 nail polishes that last forever, so what is up with this? I love Went 'n Wild, and Sinful Colors, and Avon, and assumed Essence would be as good. But...I'd had my toenails painted for a couple hours & looked down and the polish had chipped on several toes. You can literally touch the polish and it peels off.

The color is beautiful--a bright orange/coral--but what is the point of messing with it if you can't make it out of the house without chipping? One year, I went almost a month with an Avon polish on my toes. Made it weeks without any major chipping--just had to use a toothpick to dot the tips, mostly. That included wearing sandals, and doing things like mowing the grass barefoot. This is like the polishes they put in those make up kits for 5 year olds. Like colored water. It peels like tissue....
