Gel by essie, Sheer Fantasy, Sheer Nude Pink Nail Polish, Gel Couture, Up to 15 Days of Wear, No UV Light, Longlasting High Shine Nail Varnish

Sheer Fantasy. It is an upgrade for me from the Essie Mademoiselle which is not in their gel range. That seemed to thicken and dry up by time I got halfway thru the bottle so after several, I thought I'd try this. It glides on nicely, is sheer and shiny. I prefer two coats, can still see moon shape whatever it is called and white nail edge but makes me look neat, clean and polished I think. Amazingly, it doesn't chip after a whole week so I'm pleased. Thin coats are best.

Love the color and goes on nice although I had to do at least 3 coats .

Lasts well, no chips, 4 coats gives colour no streaks I found… and the top coat is the best I’ve ever used to finish it off. These products are a game changer

Lovely nail varnish to work with. You do need to put on at least 3 coats if you want your nails to look exactly as advertised. But l used to do this with ordinary nail polish to get a good finish. I do agree with others it’s takes a while longer to dry than ordinary nail polish. However l feel that with smoothness and ease of application, out ways the extra time. I did purchase the top coat and always use this. So far my nails look great for at least 5/6 days. I used to pay a lot to have my nails done professionally with gel and uv lamp. This however has been a games changer. No longer have nails that start to lift within week to 10 days. Realistically having them done professionally recked my nails. Now within just 4 weeks my nails are healthier and stronger. No more expensive breaks that then need a tip put on plus file my natural nail again. No need to file my nails to get this product to stay put Yes l have to do it myself but l still feel the product is worth it. Give it a go you might be suprised.

I'm so happy having this product just before my holiday! It came fast and in combination with the step 2 my nails lasted for almost 3 weeks. Normal nail polish doesn't dry easily on my nails but this one dried quickly and even while I was at the beach playing with my son it didn't scratch out come off. It's a bit pricey but considering the results I would say it's a good value for money. It is recommended to apply 2 coats but I think 3 coats looked better. It's a good quality product that I would recommend!

Absolutely fabulous! Goes un like a dream and lasts really well. Will definitely buy again. This shade is very demure and makes nails look super healthy.

Great colour and looks lovely once you master how to apply it and by ensuring you allow it to dry fully. It’s hard to apply smoothly as it goes rubbery and tacky as soon as you apply it. You can’t really smooth out gaps, errors, had to take off and re apply. I found loading the brush and getting each coat on in one swoop worked best. Loving the subtle pink, and the final look (once I’d mastered how to apply it). I didn’t realise there is a special top coat, so used my Orly one. It needs a top coat as it’s not shiny at all, I’d like to try the actual top coat as wonder if that helps it dry better, quicker as it’s prone to marking for quite some time after application .

Takes a long time to dry,
