  • Awesome
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 15 SKY JELLY
Awesome polish, this particular color Sky Jelly stays on amazingly well, seriously for 7-10 days with a tough up midweek. It does take an initial 4 coats to cover to start, it’s a buildable color. I get so many compliments when I wear this color. Don’t hesitate to purchase.

  • Beautiful Chrome Color
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 04 GILDED GALAXY
Beautiful color to add as a topcoat to give a more chrome like effect. I also noticed it lasted a fair amount of time without chipping significantly (about a week).

  • Generally good
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 02 COSMIC CHROME
This is a mixed review, since I ordered three polishes: Arctic Jelly (r), Lustrous Luxury (l), and Cosmic Chrome (c). Potential long read ahead 😅 All swatches are over one coat of ridge filling base coat, and one coat of top coat. First, Arctic Jelly. It's definitely a more milky jelly, which is kind of unavoidable since it's white. So it builds up pretty quickly and loses a lot of its translucency after the second coat (two coats in the photos). It's not a bad color, per se, but frankly, I wasn't crazy about it on its own. It kinda makes my nails look fake. Plus, even with a ridge filler underneath, it still didn't have the smoothest application. As it is, I'd only use this underneath a topper, or as part of some other kind of nail art. Speaking of toppers, both Lustrous Luxury and Cosmic Chrome are toppers. (In the photos, I'm wearing Lustrous Luxury on the pinky and ring, Cosmic Chrome on my middle and index). I'll start with Lustrous Luxury. I love this topper! It's a scattered micro-flake holo, but it also has a subtle green to purple duo-chrome quality to it. And it applies nice and smooth, so no need for a thick top coat. No thirsty glitter here. It looks great over both light and dark polishes. Super sparkly and pretty. As for Cosmic Chrome, I'm torn. Overall, I do really love the effect, but I feel hard pressed to call the effect a "chrome". Over the black polish, I'd definitely say the effect is chrome-y, but over the white (Arctic Jelly), it looks more like a pearl. (And I adore it!) I tried it over a third color, an orange, and it definitely looks more like pearl to me. What do you think? It is very brush strokey, so bear that in mind while applying. So overall, these polishes are a fun addition to my nail polish collection, and I think I'll be using them quite a bit, especially Lustrous Luxury. Hope this helps! Happy polishing! ... show more

  • bad color or bad formula. Never got even
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 12 CHEEKY JELLY
Too sheer, yet not evenly sheer. Bad formula. This had the wrong concentration of pigment to sheer gloss. It was impossible to evenly paint a nail. IT was streaky and I could not get each nail to look the same as the other nails. I got to 4 coats and it was stil uneven. The 2nd time I tried, I just removed it after 2 coats, switched to something else, and then threw it out. ... show more

  • Be sure you want a very metalic silver color, it was not as expected and cannot be returned
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 02 COSMIC CHROME
Product quality is good....however, the color is not as expected. This color is extremely metalic and not as expected - and cannot be returned. If looking for a very metalic shade of silver, this is for you.
