essieGel Couture Full Collection (Pick Your Color) (Style in Excess #190)

I had been wearing gel nails, during covid I pretty much stopped. I missed my nails so I bought essie gel polish and am amazed how well it stays on,no lights to cure it. Its been lasting about a week where regular polish was 2 to 3 days LOVE THIS!!!

I’ve gotten compliments on this lov ly color.

Nice color and long lasting

That's the last time I used this polish,and that is a very long time for me, my nails were not really too bad,but I was going out to lunch and wanted to look well groomed.I put on 2 coats of polish followed by top coat,it didn't take long to dry between coats and it lasted through showers,hand washing,hair colouring,gardening, hand washing a duvet and manhandling onto the washing line and all the little things that normally make my polish start to chip within hours, even with a top coat.I had got fed up with doing my nails,as it was such a thankless job,but now I can't wait to do them as I know they will look good for days.I find the flat wide brush works much better than the normal round one,and I love the Essie shades.The ones I have tried are Style in Excess,a lovely dusky lilac,Hang Up the Heels,it looks black but has a jade shimmer when it catches the light,very sophisticated, Looks to Thrill,a gorgeous kind of pale creamy orange,Couture Curator, a delicate pale pink,Stitch by Stitch,a slightly darker pink,and Model Citizen, which is a beautiful pale fuchsia.I love all the shades I've tried and can't wait to give the others a go.As long as I use the top coat they last a good while,they're easy to apply and make my nails look great.I won't use any other brand now.UPDATE this latest manicure has lasted me two whole weeks now with 3 small touch-ups,my nails are longer and stronger,the polish and top coat together are really very wear resistant,I just can't believe how much better my nails look all the time now.

Cob poca cantidad hay suficientr,color discreto,bonito y muy duradero,estoy encantada con este pintauñas!!

Please do not wanted your money int his productThe nails shown in the photos were applied as directedThe polish does not dry and just clumps upI’m fumig as I trusted the previous recommendations and wasted £12

Diese Farbe ist wunderschön , aber man muss die Farbe mind.2 mal auftragen, da der Lack sehr wässrig ist. Leider muss ich sagen das ich mir schon 5 verschiedene Farben von Essie bestellt habe, aber dieser Lack ist mit Abstand der schlimmste.

Went tacky within a week and became unusable. Was ok when I first got it
