It’s a really gorgeous nail polish to wear in both manicures and pedicures, and a stunning warm weather favorite.

Shown in this post in 2 coats, Cajun Shrimp has a cream finish and is easy to apply. It’s one of those colors that you can wear over and over, and still find it attractive.

Now for the comparison - 

OPI Cajun Shrimp VS essie geranium

Below is a swatch of OPI Cajun Shrimp, then a swatch of essie geranium, followed by two comparison photos, with Cajun Shrimp shown on the top in each photo.

Both of these colors are bold, warm, summer red nail polishes. They both could also be called corals as they each have some orange to them and they’re very similar.

You can only go right with both of these colors and essie geranium isn’t a dark red by any means at all, it does jump off the nail, it’s just that Cajun Shrimp is a touch lighter.

All in all Cajun Shrimp is a gorgeous, perfect creamy summer red. Its competitor, essie geranium, holds its own in terms of pure beauty, too. Which one you get, is really all up to what color tone you like the most.
