essieNL Gel Couture - Steel The Show, 0.2 Kg

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I have been looking for a pale pink solid colour (so you can't still see the white bit of nail through it) for ages and bought so many that looked ok in the bottle but were hopeless when actually applied. The end result of this one is brilliant. At first I was dubious because the first coat went on a bit thin and streaky but the second coat evened it up a bit and the third coat finished it off perfectly. I then applied the Gel Couture Top Coat (solid white bottle) and it gave a really smooth, shiny finish and didn't take half the polish off with it, which I've found with many other top coats. Each coat dried very fast with no tackiness, also a bonus as I tend to get impatient and more often that not start doing things too soon and ruin it!Note: the photo makes it look quite white but it's just the light, it's most definitely pale pink, a cool pink, rather than a warm tone.

Love Essie ❤️ superb

Arrived well packaged and on time. This is an excellent nail varnish with great coverage. I used the seche vite top coat as well which dries the varnish faster and makes the blue varnish shine. I would definitely recommend purchasing this product, well worth the money.

Always love essie products

The quality and the colour for my nails

Haute to trot used for pedicure on the picture. A couple days after application.This varnish in all shades last two weeks when used for pedicure. But only around 5 days when used for manicure (if you wash your dishes, do gardening work extra). Possibly can last 7+ if you only use your hands to type and no manual work.Not a shellac manicure but better than normal varnish.

Love this polish. No polish stays on my nails for 7 days but this lasts by far the longest a good 4 or 5. This colour is great books black but is a very dark green in some lights

I'd heard such good things, but I just can't get it to stay for more than a day or two without it chipping or peeling. I use the Essie top coat, I've tried applying it in different ways and every time it chips and then peels off like children's nail varnish. I have no idea what I couldn't possibly be doing wrong, as I don't have this issue with other nail varnishes.On the plus side the colour is gorgeous. I just wish I could get it to last like everyone else seems to be able to do.

Pinned up is a beautiful warm toned tan color. I actually bought this to mix with Fairy Tailor to get a gorgeous nude to match my skin tone. It lasts for more than a week on hands with the gel couture top coat and up to two weeks on toe nails.

I did 3 coats. Love this color

This has been my favorite polish for years. Wears well, lasts a long time (not doing a 2 step) & I like the soft subtle color.

The surface smooths out when applying, so any little smudge on the first coat smooths out with the second. The gel top coat helps even more and is super shiny. The longest lasting polish i have! I’d say 7 days of wear consistently. As low as 5 and up to 10.

Love the color
