essie wicked #352 is defined by essie as a “deep, dark sinister red.”
Ranked by Editorialist as the #7 best essie shade of all time, wicked looks like a dark brown nail polish with a red tint. It is almost completely opaque in one coat, though two coats offer a smoother finish to cover any nail imperfections if you have them.
Wicked was originally released in 1993 and it was recently remixed by essie into a shade called Wicked Fierce, which Gingerly Polished defines as “a shimmery brown base with a green to bright red flash.”
