This week we made quite the remarkable discovery, that Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II has loyally been wearing the same Essie nail polish shade for 28 years.
The timeline on their website reveals that they received a “royal blessing” in 1989.Â
“1989 – Queen Elizabeth’s hairdresser sends Essie a letter requesting ballet slippers, the only colour Her Majesty would wear,” the timeline reads. And how cute is the colour…Â
According to the website, the shade is “an eternal manicurist and fashion stylist favorite, Essie’s classic pale pink polish is graced with a subtle, sheer finish. this beloved award-winning essential is an iconic color for all seasons.”
The best part? You can buy the shade here in the UAE! Most drug stores will stock Essie products and Nstyle salons use it for their mani/pedis, so we know what colour we’re asking for next time…Â
