Beautiful shimmery red nail polish

As someone who LOVES Essie products, I was excited to try out this Gel Liquid Diamonds collection, and it’s definitely one of the prettiest (and easiest to use) shimmers I’ve tried! The color applies beautifully and evenly, and the provided top coat adds a magnetic/cats-eye effect that I’ve only seen from salon nails. The nail polish does separate a little in the bottle, but there’s a bead inside that you can shake to thoroughly mix the solution.

Pretty! But chips still…

I love this color honestly. It’s a sheer pink with iridescence, and I most often wear varying shades of sheer pinks. It does however still start to chip after about five days. It also definitely still feels like a standard nail polish, it’s not a thick shell like UV gel. I appreciate that the line has its own top coat, I can try some other shades now too. I love the color but overall it performs similarly to standard polishes

Love it

Love this color. Went on smoothly. The shine and glimmer is great. No texture with the glitter. Had some nails break so I tried it on a swatch stick. Does not chip so it would wear great.

Beautiful and easy to use

I was really surprised with this Gel by Essie liquid diamonds collection. It was super easy to paint onto my nails and it dried so quickly! I was expecting to have to be super cautious with messing up the color but it didn’t. The removal of excess was super easy to deal with too. And I got so many compliments on the color and feel of the nails.

Gorgeous ethereal pink

A beautiful shimmery peachy pink color perfect for spring. It applies super easily and honestly was opaque enough that you could just use one coat for more of an ethereal vibe (I ended up doing two plus the Essie gel top coat). Best of all, they lasted a week before chipping! My photos are from day 3/4. This is awesome for a polish that doesn’t need uv setting. Will definitely be looking into getting other colors in the Gel by Essie line.

Love it

I really like this product. It is so easy to apply. The color I got is really shimmery and shines a lot. I really like it because it’s quick and easy to apply. Color fades perfectly. Great pigmentation. I would definitely recommend this product to anybody looking for having cute nails without going to a salon.

Classy

Product sent free for review. This nail polish is nice. love the color. It's a classic beautiful color for nails. I did two coats and think I would recommend three. There were still a few somewhat translucent spaces after the second layer was applied. The top coat definitely helped the polish last. It still looked decent after a week. I wish I would have read the instructions to reapply top coat after day 7 cuz day 8 is when it started peeling off. . Video posted is about 10 days after application.
