Essence 113 Do You Speak Love?


I was looking for a nice dark burgundy shade for this autumn and upon checking every such shade in the drugstore, I decided on Essence's 113 Do You Speak Love? I was holding Essie's Burgundy and one S-he shade that I could tell you the name of the shade if I hadn't forgotten it a second later due to their stupid naming of the shades (sorry S-he, but what's with that?). I'm not sure if they are dupes, but they looked really close judging by how they appear in the bottles.

I've always been quite happy with the quality of Essence nail polishes and it's no different with this one. It takes two coats to get a nice deep colour, while one gets you a lighter red, but it doesn't look even enough for me. The closest shade I own is OPI's Malaga Wine, but that one is pinker and Do You Speak Love? is a truer burgundy.

I was hoping it would be darker, so if you have any suggestions for such a shade (that is easily accessible to me), please comment below. Also I'm on a search for a nice navy shade (along the line of Chanel's Blue Satin) if you have any suggestion for that as well. Thanks!

Have a great day!
