    Long last

    I like how the nail polishes from essie are all long last. I put it on for a week or so, still no chips. Also, I like the idea of 8-free formula. However, different colors have different levels of difficulty to apply. For example, I had no problem with "designer debut", a light pink-ish color, very ...

    Don't decide based on the star rating

    I bought this after quickly scanning reviews of the nail strengtheners that were in stock while I was in the store.

    I bought this product and then read other reviews that it peels and makes your nails orange. Three days later after applying, I noticed my nails were peeling which they have never done before and also turned orange. Would def not recommend.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

    Just me?

    I liked this product well enough snd do feel like it helped my nails a bit. But after 2-3 days it starts peeling (starting at the end of my nail) and started turning a deeper putple color and then alkost black? I cant figure out if this is just me or an issue with the product. I cant think of anything that would be causing it to turn dark purple and then black and its happened every time I have used it.
