essie Nail Art Studio Special Effects Polish, Pearl, Vegan, Purple Nail Polish, Lustrous Luxury, 0.46 Fl Oz

I got the Blush Jelly. The color is perfect for me (a pink-peachy nude with neutral undertones), the perfectly thin consistency is easy to work with, and the semi-sheer/glossy finish is beautiful. It dries super quickly and doesn't have any bubbles/streaking. This is my new everyday nail polish! It's so simple and elegant.

Two coats of cactus jelly here. I'd do three next time. Love the Jade green look,its perfect.

-Dry time and polish thickness/consistency was about average to any other nail polish.-Decent wear. I've worn these for a few days now with a base coat but no top coat doing regular activities (washing dishes without gloves on, scratching stickers off jars, etc.) and they look almost as good as when I first applied them.-Glossy and smooth even without a top coat-Sheer coverage (as to be expected with jelly type). I can still see my natural nails after 2-3 coats

This is a mixed review, since I ordered three polishes: Arctic Jelly (r), Lustrous Luxury (l), and Cosmic Chrome (c). Potential long read ahead 😅 All swatches are over one coat of ridge filling base coat, and one coat of top coat.First, Arctic Jelly. It's definitely a more milky jelly, which is kind of unavoidable since it's white. So it builds up pretty quickly and loses a lot of its translucency after the second coat (two coats in the photos). It's not a bad color, per se, but frankly, I wasn't crazy about it on its own. It kinda makes my nails look fake. Plus, even with a ridge filler underneath, it still didn't have the smoothest application. As it is, I'd only use this underneath a topper, or as part of some other kind of nail art.Speaking of toppers, both Lustrous Luxury and Cosmic Chrome are toppers. (In the photos, I'm wearing Lustrous Luxury on the pinky and ring, Cosmic Chrome on my middle and index). I'll start with Lustrous Luxury. I love this topper! It's a scattered micro-flake holo, but it also has a subtle green to purple duo-chrome quality to it. And it applies nice and smooth, so no need for a thick top coat. No thirsty glitter here. It looks great over both light and dark polishes. Super sparkly and pretty.As for Cosmic Chrome, I'm torn. Overall, I do really love the effect, but I feel hard pressed to call the effect a "chrome". Over the black polish, I'd definitely say the effect is chrome-y, but over the white (Arctic Jelly), it looks more like a pearl. (And I adore it!) I tried it over a third color, an orange, and it definitely looks more like pearl to me. What do you think? It is very brush strokey, so bear that in mind while applying.So overall, these polishes are a fun addition to my nail polish collection, and I think I'll be using them quite a bit, especially Lustrous Luxury. Hope this helps! Happy polishing!

My girl loves this! You will need either base layer to make it pop or do multiple coats. I still like it by itself too.

Love this. Adds a great iridescent shimmer to any solid color.

Product quality is good....however, the color is not as expected. This color is extremely metalic and not as expected - and cannot be returned. If looking for a very metalic shade of silver, this is for you.

Lighter than expected
