ESSIE COUTURE 136 FIRST FITTING

A luminous milky-white shimmer for a clean, polished manicure with gel-like shine.

✦ Soft White Shine, Essie Style

ESSIE COUTURE 136 FIRST FITTING is a Gel by essie longwear nail polish shade described as a bright white with shimmer, offering a refined milky-ivory look that feels fresh, clean, and effortlessly elegant. It is a liquid color lacquer with a brush applicator, created to be used as the color step in Essie’s 2-step Gel by essie system.

Pair two coats of First Fitting with one coat of Gel by essie topcoat to achieve the intended plump, high-shine, gel-like finish—no UV lamp required. Essie states the Gel by essie line is vegan, and the brand’s patented swirl-stem brush is designed to help distribute polish evenly during application.
