Great & non chip
Love the colour. Goes on easily with nice brush. Great nail gel. Doesn't chip for days especially after using the top coat gel. The look is shiny and goes on smooth.

Robust, easy to apply
Love this range, great staying power.I use it mainly with colours from the same range, but works well with other brands too.

Gorgeous colour
Gorgeous colour and looks fabulous. I’m quite heavy handed so varnish doesn’t always last long so really wanted to try this brand. I was surprised, last longer than a normal varnish, want to try a few more colours.

Excellent 100% recommend.
First nail polish that actually lasts.Just paint your nails and apply the top gel coat. Drys fast and leave a excellent shiny finish.My nails have lasted 2 weeks and still in great condition.Bottle is easy to hold and the polish is easy to apply.

Disappointed with the shade and finish
I actually love this brand and the gel couture range is fantastic, I have several shades that are gorgeous and if applied and maintained correctly it will last upwards of a week (even when working in a garden centre!) my issue with this colour is that it doesn’t match the description (it’s a pale, sheer pink) in the swatch it clearly looks opaque and a deeper mauve shade. I guess it’s possible I received the wrong shade (even though the name and number matched) but I am less than happy with the result of this one. It wasn’t worth my time to return it either so I guess I’m stuck with it!

Disappointing
It was advertised as topcoat that shines like glass.Very disappointed. Had a lovely colour essie and it muted the colour. Far too matt

Great experience from order to delivery. Highly recommended!
essie Gel Couture introduces an easy 2-step system for a gel-like manicure. First, take any essie Gel Couture shade and apply two coats to the natural, bare nails with long, smooth strokes. No base coat or UV or LED lamp are needed. Let dry and then apply the specialized, quick-drying top coat to lock in the couture manicure. It is not recommended to use a base coat. Reapply the top coat every few days for longer wear.
