Essie’s New Polish Collection Will Give You Serious Wanderlust

There's something almost ceremonial about the mani-pedi you get the day before your vacation: Even if you don't always prioritize a salon appointment, when it's time for the beach getaway or work trip to Paris you've been awaiting for months, a glossy manicure is the perfect carry-on accessory to get you in the mood for the adventure that lies ahead.

That jet-setter mentality is exactly where Essie's newest nail collection, Flying Solo, pulls inspiration. All nine of the just-launched shades are fun, fresh, and virtually scream "OOO" with a quippy, vacation-ready name to match. Whether you're feeling bright-sky baby blue (perfect for your cloud nails base), serene teal, or sparkly rose, scroll though to find the perfect $9 polish shade to store right next to your passport.
