The essie expressie line offers a fast-dry, one-bottle manicure. desk mani from this line is a pumpkin cream orange nail polish, perfect for autumn.

desk mani is defined as a peachy beige, though, it definitely has that pumpkin cream nail polish color inclination.

What is the exact shade of this fall orange?

It’s a peachy beige, but it seems like you could also creatively call it terra cotta, pumpkin spice, rust orange, or burnt orange. 

Either way, it is gorgeous, and the bottle has a slanted brush, which we’ve covered before in this post. This brush design for desk mani and all expressie shades is ergonomic, and does help speed up the application using your non-dominant hand. 

Shifting the kink of the brush in the non-dominant hand being harder to deal with in the wheel of the manicure process may only shave off seconds, but when time counts, seconds count and it’s a cool, unique feature.

Not only can it save time, but it could result in a cleaner application.

So besides buying this color for the perk of the shade, the brush is also a perk.
