LOVE!!!!

Super impressed with this nail polish. Not streaky at all and the watery consistency makes it easy to paint. It's not opaque on the first coat but you will need a second coat. This is the closest nail polish that have come close to a gel-like nail finish without the LED light for me. I have not had any other polishes that creates the same finish as this. It stays on super long and doesn't chip easily at all. Dries fast too. Must get more colors!!!

YES!

I absolutely love this product! it glides on smoothly and doesn't chip easily. The colors are also very appealing. After trying one on I went out and bought a couple more.

LONG LASTING AND EASY TO REMOVE

Ok. I must say that first off many nail enamels cant stand up to how tough I can be on my fingernails. But this particular nail polish stood up to me sanding and painting. Granted I wore work gloves with the sanding. However many other enamels would have at least chipped. For 2 days past the sanding and re-sanding the polish stayed in it's place. It was only when I started painting that I removed ...read morethe nail polish because of paint. I've used it a few other times and was able to get long wear from it but it wasn't until my DIY project that I realized just how durable this nail polish is. Additionally it's easy to remove with regular nail polish remover!!!! And I use acetone free remover.

Not a bad polish, but I have some complaints

I have a few shades of this polish ( I am currently wearing 110 "Lady Luck" which is a peachy pink with gold shimmer) and the color is great and solid, you really only need one coat for a nice color. It lasts just as long as OPI, Nicole or Essie and is cheaper but I would choose any of those 3 over this color for two reasons: 1. It is thick and by thick I mean the consistency is similar to old nai...read morel polish (the gooey consistency) which makes it insanely difficult to work with. 2. It takes a long time to dry. If it weren't for those 2 things it would have a higher rating. The one thing that bothers me most is the thick consistency. It makes the polish really hard to put on without getting streaks. If my only complaint was the drying time I wouldn't have such a problem, using quick drying drops works relatively well with it but I hate the gooey thick consistency. It almost seems like its old nail polish. I love the color selection ( I also have 400 "Royal Flush" and I love the color). I don't completely rule this polish out when looking for new colors but I definitely don't make these my first choice of gel type polish without the LED light. I like Sally Hansen better.

Long Lasting, Shiny, Chip Free!

I love getting a gel manicure, but I am not a fan of removing the gel or the price tag, so I am always looking for an alternative. This comes in fantastic colors (my favorite is Pocket Aces) and the top coat is incredible. If I take my time and do this right, I can get a mani that lasts about a week without cracks and chips. Two coats of the color (base is buit-in - bonus!) and one coat of the shiny top coat. It dries so fast, I can usually get all three done in about a half hour.
