## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it come off easily?**
A: It was easy to get off with normal nail varnish remover.  No problems at all

**Q: Is this make buav/cruelty free?**
A: Think so

**Q: Does licorice come wit the uk standard wide brush, or the narrow us standard brush?**
A: Hi there, thank you for your question. This should come with the UK standard wide brush. Team Essie xx

**Q: Can this be used for french manicure?**
A: I wouldn’t recommend this white polish for a French manicure. Because it’s a bit too sheer. U would need 3 or 4 coats to get the tip of nail as white as a proper French manicure.  It’s ok just a full nail white polish if u apply 2/3 coats to a full nail .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great colour, but does chip
*by F***A on 5 December 2024*

I really like this Essie nail polish in Licorice, but it does have its limitations. Full disclosure, the first night I wore it, I was in a rush, and I only applied it in a single layer, with no base coat or top coat. It was very easy to apply, and the brush was good enough to do the 3 stroke application. It dried quickly, and looked good with a touch of gloss, but it chipped slightly before I even got to the venue. I removed it the next morning and it was tricky to remove, as the nail polish remover just seemed to move it around the nail, even though I used my tried and tested method of a cotton wool pad soaked in remover placed over the nail, press down for a few seconds, and then slide away, taking the polish with it. It took three tries per nail to remove most of the single layer of polish, and it did stain my nails to a greyish colour, but I can't complain about that, as it was my choice not to use a base coat, and the staining disappeared after a normal day of hand washing and washing up. The second time I used it, I used both base and top coat, which did give it a high level of shine. It chipped by day 2, and it was so bad by day 3 that I had to remove it. Again, it was tricky to remove, and there was some faint staining. That said, I would buy it again, knowing that I could only wear it for a night out, or a couple of days. I really like the depth of black, and for me, it’s worth that extra bit of hassle.
