  • Super gloss!
Color: Once Upon A Time Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my third time buying this brand nail polish and it has gone above my expectations. It holds up for about 2 weeks and looks like a gel manicure. The coverage and colors are really pretty and the top coat adds that extra layer of glossiness! I can’t wait to buy it in more colors. Highly recommend over any other nail polish out there. Also really easy to remove when changing colors. ... show more

  • Perfect color!!
Color: Pre-Show Jitters Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I always love the quality of ESSIE! The quality is great, the polish dries quickly (use several light coats not heavy ones). One coat will leave you with an opaque nail but with coverage and a nice shine. I don’t find the polish to be extremely thick unless you apply it that way.

  • Great polish
Color: Haute To Trot Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have been using another brand of gel polish..the type not requiring a light. I tried this brand and it lasts so much longer. Colors are really nice too.

  • Matter of Fiction a beautiful color
Color: Blush Pink Size: 1.89 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Matter of Fiction is one of my favorite color it’s a light pink that is faint and not too bold. It looks good on my fair skin tone and I have received many compliments on the color, it lasts me 4-6 days with the corresponding top coat. I adore this color!

  • Nice opaque color
Color: Pre-Show Jitters Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love Essie Gel Manicure Nail Polish. I do my own nails and this along with the top coat lasts almost a week without chipping. My only complaint is that the brush does not go all the way down to the bottom of the bottle by quite a lot. So after I use about half of the bottle, I have to pick it up and tilt it to get polish onto the brush. This is tricky with wet nails. I think it's intentionally so that you have to discard the bottle when there is still polish in it because you can't get to it. ... show more

  • Love this brand
Color: sequins on the rocks Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Essie has been my favorite brand for a while. It lasts approximately a week with no chips. The top coat make a beautiful shine. It's very easy and smooth application. With 2 coats of the color and one top coat it's perfect!

  • Essie GC is the best
Color: sequins on the rocks Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Essie GC is the best polish that doesn't require a lamp. I used to have a whole setup and have used many polish from various brands. The Essie Gel Couture has lasted the longest for me vs the others. So when I got rid of the fake nail setup and my lamp I decided to only use this formula. It just makes my life easier. The two shiny nails in the pic don't have a top coat bc I was just swatching. I love the shiny top coat in this line and don't even buy seche vite anymore right now. The other two nails have the matte top coat from this line. You can't really tell from the pics but it actually looks elegant in real life. The colors in the first photo are Coastal Couture (lighter peach) and Sequins on the Rocks (warm raspberry.) The second photo shows Pinned Up. Other colors (I'll try to post pics later) Spiked with Style - very similar to Chanel Rouge Noir, which allegedly began as a red polish colored over with a black marker. Model Clicks - looks like Wicked, which is Essie's original dupe for Chanel Rouge Noir but actually both Wicked and its GC dupe Model Clicks lean a bit cooler. ... show more
