Hi M! Thanks for reaching out to us regarding Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish. We're sorry to hear that the bottle was old and separating. Please reach out to the place of purchase for compensation/replacement.
Lovely color
This is one of my favorite colors. I honestly think that if you have dark skin, this color looks fantastic. I loved the finish and it’s just perfect. I also loved the unique shape of the bottle. I really recommend this. I also like that it doesn’t have a strong scent, perfect for those who get dizzy like me.

Excellent finish
I love to do my nails and these polishes have had an excellent finish and duration, they do not mistreat my nails and have a gel effect, I recommend them.

Lovely color
Finally good gel nail polish that doesn’t require gel light. The light pink is very buildable. Perfect for any occasion. The packaging also giving luxury.

Ehh
Not a good formula. It never dries and getting smudgy. Its not durable at all , i use my hands alot. The quality is like a cheap polish. The sizing is good and the fit and comfort is good to hold.

Hi there deebc658_1134, we want to understand what happened just as much as you do. That’s not the results busy hands should see! This long wear formula should be applied to clean, bare nails, with no base coat. Just 2 coats of color and the Gel Couture Top coat, each layer should take no more than 5 minutes to dry.
Super easy application and great finish
This is my first time trying this new 2 step system and formula for the gel finish. The application was so easy and dry time was surprisingly fast. The scent is the same as all other nail polishes. I like that the top coat helps leave a shinier and smoother finish when you’re done and the polish feels like it hardens more than regular nail polish. I am using the shade 49 Gossamer Garments and 02 Blushed Metal as my top coat.

buildable pink color
The applicator on these polishes are super nice and really easy to use. I found this pink was a little light so I did three coats for full coverage. That being said it did dry fairly quickly for three coats of polish and then a topcoat. I do think it lasted a few days nicely but obviously not as long as a regular gel but that being said, it’s super easy to take off with acetone.

Not good!
I did not like this polish at all. It’s extremely sheer and I had to use 3+ coats to even get it to remotely show up and it’s not pigmented enough to allow the sheer metallic top coats to look good on top. You could see my nails underneath it and it wasn’t flattering at all. It also chipped about 2 days in so it’s just not a good polish for me.
