Beautiful and Fast!

2 years ago
It's been a while since I've done anything with my nails, mainly because it takes too long and I always end up messing them up right after. I was basically expecting the same with this polish but NO WAY!! It dried so stinking fast... and when I say dry, I mean dry. Not tacky, not you think it's dry then it smears on your clothes. DRY! I am truly in disbelief. It came out a little more watery than other nail polish I've used. Maybe that helps with the drying. But I honestly didn't even need more than one coat. I applied 2 just to see the difference. I could absolutely do one if in a hurry. The bottles are really nice and the curves make it easier to hold. I really like how flat the brush is as well. It makes it very easy to apply and gives great coverage. The color is beautiful!! It's got a really pretty but subtle shimmer to it and is brighter than it looks in the bottle! I'm so happy to be able to paint my nails again!!! Y'all run out and get yourself all the colors!!!

yes, I recommend this product.

Gorgeous color, long lasting, and dries fast!

I'm obsessed with this gel nail polish from Essie, it's absolutely amazing. I chose the polish first view and I love the color. It's a pretty light blue with the perfect amount of shimmer. I like that this nail polish goes on thick and really only one coat is needed, which is a huge plus. It dries quickly too and I've been wearing this polish for days and had no chipping at all. No matter what I do, the polish stays in place and looks amazing each day. This shade is going to be great to wear during the Winter season, but I love that it's a color I can wear any other time as well. It's beautiful and definitely a new favorite of mine. Essie gel polish is long lasting and high quality. Will be getting more colors very soon from this collection.

Essie's light blue nail polish is a breath of fresh air for my nails! The shade is simply stunning and perfect for any season. It applies smoothly, and the coverage is fantastic with just one coat. Plus, it lasts chip-free for days. I love how it adds a pop of color to my look and complements various outfits. Essie's quality is unmatched, and this light blue shade has become my go-to for a chic and cheerful manicure. If you want nails that look fabulous and stay that way, Essie is the way to go!

Great Color and last long

This polish color is very nice when doing it at home. It provided me salon like results and it actually lasted. It did not chip at all for at least a whole week. Would definitely use other colors from this brand again.
