Racy scorching coral. That's the official description from Essie on this shade from their newest release, simply called Essie Summer 2010. This creme shade to me is a slightly pink-based coral that although not scorching necessarily, it is certainly eye-catching.

Above & Below: The photo above is fairly true to color and was taken under an Ott lamp. We're having some rain storms today, so the outdoor photo below is a little dark. I used 2 coats and I did touch up a few streaks after the first coat. This isn't a neon, but I found it interesting that the finish is much more satin, as compared to the high gloss of Vermillionaire.

Below: A few similar polishes to give you a better idea of Haute as Hello's color.

This is a perfect shade for summer and I think I'll do a pedicure using it later this week. As I was applying it, I kept thinking it reminded me of this polish or that polish. But when I pulled those out and lined them up (above), it really doesn't come close to any of them. It definitely has a coral tone to it, and I would describe it as a pink-based melon shade. It's bright--not too bright like a neon shade, but it does have a more satin finish as opposed to a glossy finish.

Seeing that BB Couture polish reminds me that today is Kim's birthday at Overall Beauty. Happy Birthday, Kim! If you get a chance, wish her a good one on Twitter or Facebook.
