Excellent!
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 18 APRICOT JELLY
I LOVE these polishes! I bought Apricot Jelly & Buttercup Jelly, because they were on sale for $5, an excellent price to try a new type of polish. I spent decades biting my nails & although I stopped 16 years ago, aging has caused them to thin so much that they easily tear & peel. I thought I’d try these jelly polishes to see how they look on my tiny nails. I love wearing nail polish, but solid, bold colors make my bitten nails stand out too much. Enter Essie’s jelly polishes to save the day! I can wear color without making my bitten nails stand out. Both Apricot Jelly & Buttercup Jelly are beautiful colors. Apricot Jelly is reminiscent of pumpkin & is perfect for fall. Buttercup Jelly is reminiscent of fresh Irish or grass-fed butter, perfect for spring or when I want to wear a white color without actually wearing white. As with all Essie polishes, they apply beautifully & last long. I always use Essie’s base coat & a quick dry top coat, which go a long way to extend wear. I can’t wait to try other colors, like blue, pink & green! ... show more

Beautiful shade doesn’t show chips and stays on all week
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 04 GILDED GALAXY
Same great nail polish for a better price than in department stores. I would recommend buying from Amazon instead of spending your money in CVS or target or Walmart.

Drys fast and thin!
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 13 BLUSH JELLY
The polish is cute, but I don't think I'll be purchasing another one because the color isnt for me but if it was another color I’d def get it again. PROS: - Drys fast! I set a timrer for 5 minutes, and after that it wouldn't budge. I did also poke it after around a minute and it was already hard. - Liquidy, it isn't goopy at all and application isn't too hard. - Application was very easy. - Pigment, very pigmented - If you put more than 2 layers it doesn’t chip (I’m wearing two layers and it hasn’t chipped in four days) CONS: - The picture I posted was two coats of thin application. It's not as jelly/translucent as it seemed online. - One layer is jelly. Two layers is pretty opaque. If you stare close enough you’ll realize this is jelly but by the third it just looks like a creme polish. Note: for people wanting the viral jelly gel look, your’e looking for “syrup jelly liquid polish”. You won’t really get that look with this polish if you do more than one coat. ... show more

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

Great polish
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: Charm to Stable
Love this polish! Its as described. Last a really good amount of days, considering all my nails go through. Charm to stable color is very nude, which I love. Very natural polished look.

Streak-free and long-lasting
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 10 ARCTIC JELLY
If you’re into the milky nail look this is the polish for you. I was blessed with great natural nails but it has always been hard to find a polish that doesn’t streak when applying. This went on streak-free, dried fast and has lasted a several days with no chips. The pic is 2 coats. I love the look!

Great sheer jelly!
Size: 0.46 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Color: 10 ARCTIC JELLY
I got the arctic jelly polish — very nice jelly, I did 3 thin-ish coats for the picture so it’s very sheer as expected. Took me a couple tries to learn how to paint this one, you have to be light handed to avoid streakiness. Good potential for art! The shade is very wearable by itself, not too stark white. ... show more
