If you haven’t tried the Essence The Gel Nail Polish yet, DO IT! I bought it on a whim, but OH MY GOSH! HOLY AMAZING CHEAP NAIL POLISH BATMAN!!!
Literally paid like 15 bucks for the top and base coat, plus three different colors. Even not on sale, the colors are $1.99 a piece. This stuff is so smooth and not see through at all! It reminds me of high end polishes I kid you not. Even better, the system doesn’t require UV lights to cure. Feels pretty darn near professional to me!

Review for: 72 Plump Power more...
I purchased this nail polish at Ulta today since it was on clearance and I really wanted a polish this color for the upcoming fall season. I prepped my toes with the Essence Gel Polish Base Coat. The wand for this plum polish is extremely wide and not extremely easy to maneuver, which is the main reason for the 3 star rating. I had to go in with a q-tip soaked in polish remover to clean the edges from where the wand didn’t allow me to get very detailed. If you can get past that, this is a great polish. Two coats gives an amazing coverage on the nail and it is quick to dry and it dries with a beautiful sheen. For $0.99, this is a great bargain!
I absolutely love this polish! It really looks like I went out and got a professional gel manicure! I have 3 colors and will be buying more. It lasts a long time and the colors are awesome. Such a good price. Would recommend. Essence The Gel Nail Polish
I was skeptical, but one try and I'm hooked! Normally my polish tends to start showing signs of wear after a couple days, but this polish still looks brand new 3 days later and I even assembled a piece of yard equipment. I also feel like it self levels better than most polishes and dries quickly. All around winner!

I am not a pink fan, but I like having some pink polishes for nail art. This is my favorite pastel pink. It gets opaque in two coats for me, which is a minor miracle! The gel-like formula really works and finishes with a high gloss. The brush is flat and rounded, which I love as I can paint even my larger nails with one or two swipes. I only wish Essence as a brand was more available in the US!

I received several of these as a stocking stuffer gift, but I was pleasantly surprised when they turned out to be super cute. And... they actually tend to stay on my nails for a decent amount of time.

Love the color. The polish last a lot longer than normal polish and it’s really shiny. I’ve had this polish for awhile and it’s always a go to. Purchased this from my local beauty supply. I definitely recommend this product if you want a DIY professional looking set.
the reason i’m giving this only three stars is because gel nail polish normally has a long wear time but this nail polish only has maybe a three or four day wear and then it’ll start peeling, it probably would do good with a top coat, but overall i do really like them and that’s my only thing i dislike about them

Amazing! I love this nail polish so much! The “don’t be shy” yellowish green color is my favorite. I get so many compliments on it! It makes your nails look like you went to the salon. You’re missing out if you haven’t tried these out. (They don’t require a lamp)

These gel polishes are great! They are the only polish I will bother with kn my hands anymore. They stay with no problem for a week or more, better than the pro gel manis I’ve gotten. You of course need to use both the top and bottom coat polishes to make it work. They all dry quickly, as well!

Do these work well? How many cotes does it take for the color to be at its full potential? Do they dry fast?
