Amazing nail polish!!!!

I am in love with this nail polish. I have never used a polish that has given me results like this before. It was super simple. You put it on like regular nail polish and then use the top coat. It's that simple. The look is salon quality! I am so impressed. The colour selection is amazing too. Now that I have tried this product I am definitely going to purchase a variety of colours. If you do your nails at home, GO GET THIS!!! You'll be so happy you did.

Le vernis par excellence!

J`ai découvert ESSIE et je l`adore! ESSIE offre une panoplie de magnifiques couleurs. Il s`applique bien, sèche assez rapidement et surtout dure longtemps sur vos ongles. Je le recommande!

Excellent Wear

I love this line of polishes. I wish it had a comparable colour to my favourite 'angora cardi' in their standard line, but I do love 'Take Me To Thread' and 'Hang Up the Heels' and 'Galavanting'. The unique brush design makes application a breeze. Not sure why the top coat has a standard brush and not the specialty one. Love the top coat even with standard polishes. The shine and durability are excellent. The claim of two weeks chip-free is probably assuming regular topcoat touchups, but the polish has excellent wear even without touchups, just not 100% chip-free.

Awesome nail polish

This nail polish has quickly become my favourite. It applies in thick even coats. The nail polish always lasts a minimum of 7 days before chipping which is usually when I want to change my colour anyhow! The only drawback is that the price is a pit higher for nail polish so I only buy it when I find it on sale. That being said, I still have 10 shades!!

ok

I like the gel couture better than regular nail polish because I find the shine beautiful and it does look like a shellac manicure , dries very fast compare to regular nail polish. My only complaint is it doesn't last any longer than regular nail polish .. I can get about 4-5 days before it starts chipping.

I will buy this product again

I love the brand name "Eddie" I have tried many colors of different kinds of essies. They are all great. I like the look of it and it doesnt take that long to dry. You don't need 2 coats with the gel kind, depending on the color. I recommend everyone tries essie.

Love This!

I really love this brand of polish especially the gel line. For me it lasts longer then many polishes. I absolutely love this colour for fall it is a very deep purple. Great polish, great colour.

Lasts much longer than regular polish

I decided to try the new nail couture line from essie one day after being annoyed that regular polish lasted only two days. To my surprise, the application was easy and looked professional once it dried. It lasted a full 7 days before chipping and this was after swimming twice. Extremely impressed and will be switching over completely to this line.

No better than regular polish

This set contains a nail polish and a topcoat, which are meant to give the appearance of a gel manicure. They are also supposed to provide the longevity of a gel manicure, without the need for a curing light or the difficult removal process. The color I received, Beau-Tie, is a pretty deep purple creme. It looks quite blue-leaning in the bottle, but is actually much warmer on the nail. In any case, the color was pretty, and the polish did look nice on my nails. The instructions say to use the polish on bare nails (no base coat), do two coats, and follow with a coat of topper. I did this, and I did have a nice, shiny manicure. The shine was obvious, but I'm not convinced that it's anything exclusive to Essie. There are other topcoats that will give you a similar appearance. This polish definitely did not last the two weeks that the package claimed it would. I found it lasted for about as long as any other polish when worn with a good topcoat- about four days. The bigger issue, for me, is that without a base coat, my nails were in rough shape when this polish started chipping and I removed it. They've been weak, peeling, and splitting. The result is that I won't be wearing this without base coat again. The bigger takeaway is that I don't find this to be fundamentally different from other nail polishes. The "gel couture" business seems like a gimmick. Also, I'm accustomed to using a quick dry topcoat, and this one takes much longer. Be advised!
