Essie Just Dropped 6 Limited-Edition Polishes — & You’ll Want Every Shimmery Shade

There are countless ways to lean into the rapidly-approaching holiday season. If you're feeling proactive, you could cross a few gifts off your list early. Or, you could start by treating yourself — because it's already pitch black at 5 p.m. and you deserve it.

Better still, you could do both by shopping Essie's new Intergalactic Metals nail polish collection. Simply stop by your local CVS and you can grab a $9 metallic polish (or two) for your next DIY mani-pedi, plus an extra-special, limited-edition bottle for the White Elephant swap you inevitably forget to shop for.

Find all six starry, chrome-plated Essie shades, ahead.
