        Favorite regular nailpolish

        2 years ago
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this nailpolish for free in exchange for my honest review. I've been using Essie nailpolishes whenever I dont have gel and I know this brand quality is always the best! The variety of colors and shades are great, the consistency is so smooth and just right to make a perfect layer. It lasts me about 3-4 days without chipping at all and about a week of my nails looking okay without noticeable or big chips. But keep in mind that I have 3 kids so I have to do many things for them, showers every day, playing, drawing, washing the dishes, cleaning! And the nailpolish is very easy to remove and reapply. And since it dries fast I'm EXTREMELY SATISFIED!

        Arctic Jelly- great coverage but dries slow

        a year ago
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First, I wanted to start with the positives.This is a great nail polish brand. It is easy to apply and i typically only need about two coats. It does last a while before it starts chipping. I was impressed with how well the white covered, other brands I have tried the white do not look as good. The only negative: -It dries very slow. I do not like sitting in one place too long and so I often create “blemishes” in it which I have to go over again. This would not be a good nail polish to use on kids or impatient adults like myself. Overall, I do like this nail polish.

        Essie! Take my money! Now I want the whole collection!

        2 years ago
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you Essie and Influenster for sending me two adorable colours from Jelly Gloss Collection! I’m a spring and summer girl, so pastel colors have always been my go-to, and this two colors are too cute! It is a sheer and plump white color, just like milk jello. Drying time and chip resistance: I sat there for 10 mins after top coat (i’m using Essie regular top coat - been on my third bottle) after that I took a shower, washed and massaged my hair and came out no chipping at all! Also, the reason that I always choose Essie nail polishes for doing nail at home is the curve of the brush, you know it is hard and messy to paint the other hand, but with Essie brush shape, it was super easy, no mess and no need to clean up the cuticle or the sides.

        I love

        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Essie never disappoints when it comes to presentation. “Arctic Jelly” comes in the brand’s classic, elegant bottle, with a shade that at first glance appears to be a translucent, almost ethereal ice blue. Ideal for those seeking a natural, minimalist look, or for playing with layers and nail art. With one coat, you get a soft, subtle shine. With two or three coats, the color intensifies, but never loses that beautiful translucent effect. Surprisingly, it dries fairly quickly between coats and doesn’t feel heavy.

        Great nail polish

        a year ago
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Essie nail polish I received came packaged well and all nail polish was intact. Love the simplicity of the bottles and easy to open to apply. The scent wasn’t too fragrant which I liked. The polishes were a little more shear than anticipated, but still beautiful once added more layers. Drying time was pretty on par for most nail polishes and doesn’t take any special application techniques . All in all, the polish was great to try and I’m sure I will try some of the shades again soon!

        Nice light color and easy application

        2 years ago
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, this nail polish is pretty nice! The formula is very thin, though, so I had to put on three coats to really see the color. The color itself is also very light, which can be nice, depending on what you’re looking for. It goes on smoothly and dries quickly, which I like. However, after a day or so, my nails starting looking kind of bumpy and almost had a pinkish tint to them- not sure if it’s something I did or the polish itself? Overall, this is a decent nail product I’d say.

        Hello graciek43! Thank you for sharing your pics and experience with the Nail Art Studio Jelly Gloss in the 'arctic jelly' color. This icy, soft white jelly nail polish with subtle yellow undertones has a sheer, buildable translucent finish. Wear it alone, and build it up to 4 layers for unique results. Or layer it over your favorite color.

        Best nail polish yet!

        2 years ago
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's very opaque, which is something I guess I should have accounted for when jelly nail polish was involved 😅 it can take anywhere from 2-4 applications for a darker shade, as pictured above. The lighter ones are one application, and then two applications between the middle and forefinger. The second photo it's 3-4 applications(I didn't keep track) to get a darker shade. However, I loved it even on the lightest side of things - it felt very summery! After a week, I've noticed very light chipping but nothing to write home about. Which is surprising because by the time a week rolls around most of my nail polish is gone with any other brand! It hasn't been harder to remove than normal nail polish, which I've really appreciated. Overall I love this shade and you can now consider me an Essie girl for life lol

        Jelly milk

        10 months ago
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This arctic jelly is a milky white color. It is jelly like which is very different from other white colors. It can be worn on its own and gives nails a sheer white color or it can be applied as topcoat. I used it in combination with blush jelly and if you prefer pinkish finish you apply blush jelly on top and if you prefer a pale color finish you apply arctic jelly on the top. It is very similar to the very popular milky pink jelly nails which you can get from salons.
