Sheer white nails can be sexy, classic and they go with everything. They look good on every skin tone. They can elongate both the hand and the nail bed.
You can apply sheer polishes like marshmallow streak-free using a few simple tools and techniques -
- A good smoothing base coat, like essie smooth-e
- Mix the polish before application by rolling the bottle in your hands
- Application with plenty of polish on the brush and with the brush parallel to the nail in feather-soft strokes
That’s it!
marshmallow #024 is one of the most well known essie shades and it is one of the most compared colors to the OPI classic, Funny Bunny, another sheer white nail polish.
So below you will find swatches of essie marshmallow in two coats and then we’ll compare it to swatches of Funny Bunny in two coats.
essie marshmallow VS OPI Funny Bunny
essie marshmallow is a good alternative for OPI Funny Bunny, as these two shades are very similar.
However, essie marshmallow (top) is a little more opaque than OPI Funny Bunny in two coats, offering slightly more coverage, though neither is designed to be full coverage.
This is what makes marshmallow a great stand alone color, it’s a beautiful sheer white nail polish on its own, and a slightly more opaque version than Funny Bunny.
That said, both of these polishes can be somewhat thick in their consistency, so this means they can both be prone to bubbling.
If you notice either of these shades bubbling during application:
Slow down your reapplication time to 20 minutes between coats
Wait until the least humid time of day to do your manicure
Turn on a manicure fan or ceiling fan
