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!

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.

Best Nail Polish!
I'm seriously impressed with Essie's nail polish. The formula goes on super smooth, levels itself out, and gives that thick, glossy "salon gel" look without actually needing a UV lamp. It dries faster than I expected and leaves such a clean, professional finish.
I can always count on Essie!
Great color, easy application, I'd buy it again.
The GOAT
I cannot find any polish that works as well as this. The brush os perfect and my manicure lasts a whole week when I use this!
Best everyday polish
While this doesn't last 15 days, it does last up to a week looking nice and shiny and chip-free. Easy to apply, quick to dry, and easy to remove.
Color Matched Perfectly with Dress
The color Paisley The Way matched perfectly with my Calvin Klein aubergine dress, after using 2 coats. Was very happy, since it's the only one I found to exactly match that dress color. Nail polish is also fairly easy to remove with acetone remover.
