A clean, iconic white lacquer for timeless French tips and crisp, polished manicures.
✦ The Iconic Essie White
Essie Blanc #10 is a bright white creme nail lacquer from the Essie Original collection, known for its fresh, opaque white look and classic salon-inspired feel. It is a regular air-dry polish, not a gel-curing system, making it a familiar choice for at-home manicures and professional nail services alike.
Wear it across the full nail for a clean white manicure or use it to create crisp French tips. Essie recommends pairing Blanc with a preferred Essie base coat, two coats of color, and an Essie topcoat for shine and longevity.
