Here’s what Essence says about this TE:

Essence-Cookies-Cream-Collection

Beauty meets sweets: you’re about to experience the sweeter side of life in April 2014 with the new trend edition “Cookies & cream” by Essence. A deliciously fragrant selection of products combined with nude shades consisting of vanilla, caramel, pink, apricot, brown and taupe ensure gorgeous looks.

There are four colours of nail polishes in this TE, each has “sticker onpack” – 5 cute stickers as a gift in a plastick wrap secured with a rubber band around the bottle. The stickers are your standard stickers, nothing special there(easy application, I don’t know how well they stick to your nails, I haven’t tried them yet).

 And what does Essence says about the nail polishes: 

Four long-lasting nail polishes in the fashionable nude shades pink, apricot, brown and taupe with a metal finish create ultra-trendy nail styles. Each nail polish comes with a sachet of cool nail stickers with cool designs of various sweets.

THE BRUSH is your standard brush, maybe a little thin.

THE APPLICATION/FORMULA is not really all that awesome. It requires three coats(maybemaybemaybe if you’d really try it, you could do two), and very visible brush strokes. It dries fast.
THE COLOUR is a pinkish nude pearl with small pink/green shimmer too it.

FINAL VERDICT:

The polish is not that bad, it’s just not my thing. If it wasn’t so strokey/pearly, I’d love it! But this way…naah, I’m not a fan! But I do like the stickers, I just don’t like there is only five of them.
