Long lasting and great application brush!
I usually use nearly nude colors/glitter polish when painting my nails because you can't see the nail polish begin to chip away a day or so later.

Does not last anywhere near as long as gel
The color i got was fairy tailor, i had to apply 3 coats to get any sort of opaqueness. After spending all that time painting, they only lasted me literally 2 days before they started chipping! Ive had regular nail polish from the drug store last longer than this product. I would NOT reccomend.

Beautiful Healthy Looking Nails!
I am so in love with this duo. As someone who wants to start caring for her nails more, I opted for this duo as "Fairy Tailor" was just sheer enough to add ~some~ pizzaz to my natural nails. I like to go in with 1 coat for a subtle light nude pink, or two for more opacity. The top coat is also so lovely! HIGH shine without feeling gloopy or heavy/sticky. They dry without any streaks, and fairly quickly too. So happy with my purchase, it also seems to be actually long lasting! I look forward to trying more shades ASAP :)
Long lasting and great application brush!
I usually use nearly nude colors/glitter polish when painting my nails because you can't see the nail polish begin to chip away a day or so later. I bought this set because of the color and to see if this darker tone would last longer. I am pleasantly surprised that it's been almost 5 days and the nail polish is barely begin to chip- but even then, you can't really tell unless you look fairly close to my nails, it still looks great. I was also amazed by the angled brush- what a difference!!! I usually get nail polish all over my skin and I have to do a lot of cleaning up along my nail edges (I don't have the steadiest hand) and this brush applied like a breeze- hardly any clean up needed and it applied great without excessive mess. You do need a solid 2-3 coats of color as this formula isn't as great in coverage In Comparison to the regular Essie formula- but it's so worth it! I have medium-light skin tone and this color looked beautiful on my skin, I felt it popped but was a good neutral color. Needless to say, I went ahead and bought several more Gel couture colors by Essie in darker colors because I know this formula will actually last, well worth the extra couple of bucks in my opinion. I highly recommend trying the Essie gel kits because it's a great starting point, I'm happy I did!
Was a NO for me

It did last a full week but the finish was streaked even after my nails were buffed before application. Zoya Naked Manicure always gave a smooth finish. I bought this thinking it would be similar but it didn't work for me. I returned this kit.
I will continue using this product over and over

This nail polish is amazing long lasting and the color is so beautiful.
they lied
I got this because the color was close to a press on nail color I fell in love with. I really wish I could post a picture. My nails are chipping. in my opinion this is not worth the money
