ABCs of Essie Alphabetical List of Essie Polishes for alphabet nails

Last week, I went through the Zoya collection to find out if I could do the alphabet nails challenge using only Zoya.  Turns out I can’t so this week I am making an alphabetical list of all Essie polishes to see if it is possible with Essie.  Where possible, I am going to stay away from the many pinks that essie is so well known for to show you some of their other more fun colours.
