I love the Essie electric geometric polishes. The red is beautiful and gets me alot of compliments. This color really makes me feel confident and like a woman. It lasts a long time and doesn't fade. I have also used Essie white and blue which are just as great as the red. They are all easily removed with nail polish remover.

Vibrant Color

I have so many different color red nail polishes and this one is my favorite. It is a long lasting polish that surprisingly stayed on for almost week with no chipping which never happens for me- typically polish will chip off of my nails within 24 hours. I don't think there is any other type of polish I can use besides this line of essie.

Amazing Shine

2 years ago
This nail polish is absolutely amazing. I can never seem to find the time to get my nails done at a salon and now I can get the same results by doing them myself at home. This nail polish has the look and finish of a gel manicure but doesn't require a UV lamp. This polish covers my nails with intense color and a gorgeous glossy shine that lasts for days without chipping,which is very impressive. I will definitely be purchasing this in a ton of different colors,as it is definitely my new favorite nail polish.

yes, I recommend this product.

Red Orange

2 years ago
I thought this was going to be a brighter, darker red, if that makes sense, but it is definitely more of an orange tone. It's pretty, dried fast, and is staying on well otherwise. I didn't have any issues with application, but the brush on it is a little thicker than I like. All in all not too bad.

yes, I recommend this product.

These Essie nail polishes are top notch, and top quality. The colors are beautifully made and vibrant. They hold the longest and strongest record without being chipped and touched!

The nail polishes have nailed their job!

Nice Bright Color

I like the design of the bottle, it makes it a little easier for me to hold. The polish comes out very easily and a good amount comes on the brush. it's easy to brush off to get how much you need. It takes a little extra time to dry on my nails. The color is vibrant and true to how it looks in the bottle.

Chips within hours

2 years ago
I am so disappointed with Essie's electric geometric line of nail polish. When first applying, I really loved the vibrant red color. Within an hour or two, I already had chips on my nails. So, I applied a second coat the same day. Once again, the nail polish was chipping within hours. I would not recommend this to others as it doesn't even last the day you put it on.

no, I do not recommend this product.

I'm just truly amazed at how beautiful this color is truly a gem. The polish went on smooth and after the second coat you let dry and apply the coat and beautiful gel nails. The finish is extremely glossy and professional looking. It lasts very long on the hands maybe about two weeks and longer on the toes. It was very easy to remove. I highly recommend this for a great at home gel polish.

Super colors, one coat coverage

I love these bottles, so cool looking all twisty like they are. Really stands out from other bottles that would be next to it on the shelf. It took only one coat to cover my nails, it is thick and goes on real smoothly. I really love this polish! It's pretty strong smelling but fades quickly.

I received this complimentary in exchange for my honest opinion, I am normally a fan but this cracked after three days. This brand normally offers great quality for the money but after even using a protective coat, I was bummed when I needed to keep retreating and redoing my nails. the color is super pretty and while it lasted, it did noot very vibrant, pretty and classy.

A few days ago I received my electric geometric and the truth is, I am super excited to use these gel polishes, first of all the packaging design is different and attractive, when using the red tone behind the eyes of anyone. The colors are really vibrant and avant-garde, plus you don't need a UV lamp or base coat for the finish. I have used it for a few days and it really lasted me. I recommend them, they are the best I have tried

Smooth finish

4 years ago
I got 3 different shades of the new Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish Pattern Play Collection. I got the Electric Geometric, Chevron Trend and Paisley all the way. The electric geometric shades very vibrant red which didn't work well with my taste and skin tone. The Chevron Trend is more of a deep color (which I like) and I really love the Paisley all the way purple shade. This nail polish collection come in a 2 step system, where the color is step 1 and then a clear protective coat is step 2. Both polishes glide smoothly when applied which gives a perfect finish that anyone would want. For the how long it last part, I didn't find it 2 last that long without being chipped, even with the top coat. I am a busy mom with 3 kids and lots of chores to run and do so I would like to see something that last a long time and offer more shades variety. I prefer other brands over this one and wouldn't really recommend it for others.

no, I do not recommend this product.

Bright and long-lasting

4 years ago
I am very impressed with this Essie nail polish. When I applied the nail polish for the first time I did not expect on how the color will be deep and vibrant. Usually I apply about three or even more layers of a regular nail polish to get that color. With this nail polish by Essie I need just one layer. The electric geometric shade is red with pink undertones. The nail polish lays well. To get even better results I applied clear top coat by Essie right after applying the nail polish. Everything dryers quickly. After using the top coat the color became even more bright and shiny. Also I like that this nail polish removes easily with a regular nail polish remover. This nail polish and top coat are very good alternative to the salon procedure. The final result looks like gel polish and it is long-lasting. I would definitely recommend this product for others, and will try other shades of this nail polish.

yes, I recommend this product.

I am completely in love with this polish! Usually when I do my nails, the color end up looking more dull than what it looks like in the bottle. That is not the case here! The color is beautiful and I love the top coat which makes everything shine!
