Finally a product that made want to write a review
Ok, so I always get chipped nails. Like ALWAYS. Apparently I have really oily nails. Go figure! Even my gel nails get chipped if the salons do not follow certain steps to really remove any excess oil from my nails (though I must admit that Essie Gels never got chipped - but not all salons can affor...

Chips on fifth day
Pretty color, great brush, but it didn't last anywhere near 14 days. Also it's shrunk so much anyway from the cuticle and the tips I couldn't wear it much longer even if it didn't chip. I did wash some dishes so I didn't expect it to last 14 days but expected more than 4.

Rev It Up
Rev it up is not what I would describe as sunny yellow. Its more of a mustard yellow or maybe even a dandelion yellow. It's pretty and you have to really build it up on the nail to get it opaque.
Great polish
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I recently received this product, and I am extremely satisfied! It is exactly as described—high quality, chip resistant, and incredibly shiny for everyday wear. The application technique is flawless, making it both practical and convenient to use. Dry time was minimal. What impressed me most is that, despite its excellent quality, it's very reasonably priced, making it a fantastic value. It's clear that a lot of thought went into the design and performance, and it has exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for a great product at an affordable price, I highly recommend this one!
Wonderful formula!
Wonderful wearable formula! The color, perfect. The range of colors, gorgeous. The long lasting nail color you can count on, priceless.
Perfect Posture is a no
Ive had this nail polish in different colors in different shades befofe without any issues. Love the light blue shade, but the formula sucks now. I waited hours between coats and it still did not cure and dry properly. All nails are chipped or smudged the same day that the polish was applied. I only put on 2 coats… not like there are a ridiculous number of coats causing it to cake and not cure.
Under consideration
I ordered Twilight. The base coat went on lighter than I thought it would, so I did try a little more polish with second coat. I think it would have been better if I would have taken the time for a lighter third coat. This does dry pretty quickly, so it's more difficult to fix and evenly spread thicker layers. I am on day Two and always have chipping. My nails are pretty Short and don't have much to finish an edge. I am hopeful I can be successful color and top coat, but a little bit of a learning curve.
