Excellent, easy to apply, lasts, decreases breakage, and subtle…
Love this brand and line. My favorite is the raspberry one but I tried this one and it’s just as high quality and lasts. I’m a nail biter and can never keep nail polish on, this one actually stays on and looks nice. It’s also easy to apply. My nails grow slowly and this polish makes them grow faster (probably from less nibbling) and they feel a lot stronger. I plan to get more shades!

Gel Like Finish
I’m still recovering from a gel nail allergy which left my nails peeling, thin, and horribly damaged. This product has been my saving grace. Even though my nails are still not grown back out, it makes my nails look instantly smoother and healthier, with a natural pink tint that blends perfectly with my skin tone. The shine is out of the world. It’s the closest I’ve come to a gel-like finish without actually using gel!! The first photo is two coats, and the second photo I followed it with Manucurist’s “blueberry” active glow. I love how strong and polished my nails feel—even on its own, it’s beautiful.

Great polish!!!
This polish is really great! Nice finish, goes on like silk and it lasts with no chipping for much longer than other polishes! I used it over white tips for a French manicure ure and it lasted for about 10 days! I just ordered another color. It's expensive but worth it!

Underwhelming and overpriced.
I had high hopes for this, especially at the price point. I wanted to transition from years of gel nails to going natural and hoped this would help melove my real nails. The damage was mostly at the tips as I have been growing them out for quite some time and they’re thin so figured this would strengthen and smooth them.It’s definitely more pink than beige and very transparent so if you have an ugly nail line it’s all visible. I got maybe 24 hours out of it before it chipped. I gave it a months worth of constant trying and having to repaint nails. It actually made my nails feel flimsier somehow, I tried another brand polish that made them feel harder the following day. Maybe it’s the aha? No clue…I like that it’s “natural” but it’s honestly all hype. The cheaper brand smoothed and covered and hardened my nails much better, while claiming to be natural too, and I’m just kinda disappointed I wasted $20 on 1 bottle of nail polish that dried up halfway through its use.Photos:Bottle after using less than 8 times.Nails after 1 coat, to see color texture etcNails after 2 coats to see color texture.I thought about trying their gel polish but the price point turned me off after reading about it chipping off after a day, I’d be pissed if I invested that much in a system, which is why I tried the regular polish to start, plus I brought it on vacation to fix and touch up and it’s not convenient to tough up with gel and pack all that stuff when the goal is to have a polish that can last more than a weekend.

easy and quick, but not perfect
It goes on easily and looks nice, but it does not fill in ridges as advertised. One coat was the perfect color. Two coats was a bit much, but I did it anyway to smooth the ridges.

Does what it is supposed to do
I really like this product, COSTLY, but does a good job on my nails. I've been using about 3 weeks & they do seem to be better. I apply on Sunday & apply a 3rd coat on Wednesday. Seems to last all week & I do LOVE the color. Subtle pink

Disappointing. Peels off after 24 hours.
I wanted so badly to like this nail polish, and love how it looks day one. Unfortunately I can’t get it to last for more than 24 hours on my nails before it starts separating from the nail and peeling off in one solid piece. I’ve tried nail dehydrators and rubbing alcohol to prep, I’ve tried no top coat and different combinations of top coats - I’m on my fifth manicure with this stuff and I’m ready to write it off as a waste. I bought this with the intention of giving my nails a break from lacquer polishes, but honestly with the amount of time I’ve had to redo my nails do to this polishes horrendous wear time I think my nails are in WORSE condition.
