Leggy Legend looks gorgeous in the bottle but leaves much to be desired on the nail. It is a deep golden shade with a copper undertone and pink-silver microshimmer in it. Firstly, when on my nail I did not find it to be flattering on my NC15 skin. It appeared to clash slightly (though this may be just my perspective as I was complimented on the colour a few times at work). Secondly, the staying power was not as good as I have come to expect from Essies. Leggy Legend only lasted 3 days before chipping. As Essie polishes usually last around 5 days on me, I was very disappointed. However, the formula itself is good, you could definitely reach full opacity in only one coat. It dries quickly and to a shiny finish, though I recommend topcoat to enhance the shimmer effect. I believe this would suit warmer skin tones than my own, and skintones which are deeper. However, this shade is not for me.
