I recently tried the Essie Gel Couture nail polish and top coat kit, and it was great! The polish goes on smoothly, dries quickly, and has a beautiful, glossy finish. The top coat really seals everything in, making the manicure look professionally done without needing a UV lamp. I was especially impressed with how long it lasted — chip-free for days. Overall, this kit exceeded my expectations. Easy to use, long-lasting, and salon-level shine. I’d definitely recommend it! Great colors! Read more

Lasted for about a week on my hands before chipping, and I work with my hands and bite my nails. My toenails didn't chip for about 2-3 weeks. The red color was very dark and pretty, going on without any bubbles or lumps. Any imperfections could be smoothed out with the clear Step 2 top coat. Overall not an excessively long drying time, either. Read more

Love the color. You need to give it time to completely dry. Two coats with a top coat and it lasts a long time. I love it and recommend it. Read more

I love getting a pedicure, but I spend a lot of time in the water, so polish does not last more than one week. I decided to try this product after all the reviews, and this set is absolutely worth the hype! It is so incredibly smooth and glossy, and looks like a professional UV manicure. And most importantly, the nail polish has not chipped at all, even after a spinning and aqua Zumba class! With regular nail polish, at this point in my week I would already need a touch up. The color is slightly darker than what it appears in the bottle; I would say it is a dark, wine color, rather than a true red. The consistency is a bit thicker than regular polish, like other reviewers have noted. I am looking forward to trying other shades! Read more

Viplease is NOT fuschia like it appears to be on my screen. It’s a pretty berry color. If you want a bright summer color, you can-dy it is gorgeous! Be careful when ordering as you cannot return nail polish. At least not in my state. I’ll use this nail polish in the fall. But right now i want bright! Read more

the best regular nail polish i’ve ever used. after one week, it had minimal chipping - i think it took three days before i saw any. then i tried to cut my nails before removing the polish and it wouldn’t cut! after taking the polish off there is only a slight scratch where i tried to cut it, just on the surface. Not sure how this polish is so strong! yet came off so easily too!? i will forever be buying this nail polish Read more

Great polish! I had to take a break from gel because of the allergy. This is a great alternative. It wears beautifully. From all regular non gel polishes that I owned - this is the best. I attached a 3,5, and 7 day wear picture- you can see how amazing it is. I will be ordering more colors for sure Read more
