My go to color

It’s been my go to neutral for years. I get a lot of compliments. Devastated that it’s been discontinued. My reserve bottles are getting low. I’ve been searching to find the last few bottles out there. Please bring it back!

My favorite color for fingers! This works beautifully for me with and without a tan.

pretty good polish, can't complain

this polish honestly has a super good formula! i've been wearing this set for a couple of days and so far it looks just as good as the first day i put it on ! my only qualm with this product was that the colour looks a lot different than when i saw it on the internet. i honestly do not see the red at all and it mostly just looks black. (i compared it with the shade licorice and didn't see much of a difference) but i don't really mind that!

LOVED AND MISS IT!

Bring it back please! LOVED this color. It was my go to nude! The similar shades just don’t nail it quite like Sand Tropez did.

Love this SO much, but can’t find it to repurchase

Best product EVER, but I can’t find it anywhere! What’s up with that?

Disappointed in the color change.

Very disappointed in the color change. The old color was far superior. Essie could have just made a new color and sold that alongside the original Sugar Daddy. Switching to a different brand because this continues to happen.

Hi there Polished365, we’re sorry to hear this sheer sweet pink is no longer your favorite! The production of our iconic shades has advanced over the years – higher quality standards, pure color pigments, and new innovative ingredients allow for a better, more consistent product, but also can result in some color variation from the past. Despite the disappointment, we appreciate hearing your feedback and will share your comments with Essie and her creative team!
