        Eh

        I realize that the point of this polish it to be buildable, but I would suggest either pairing this over a solid color or being patient enough for at least 4 coats because anything less with the Ink color makes your nails look dirty and uneven. It has potential but it’s almost too thin.

        My favorite nail polish ever

        11 days ago
        This is my favorite nail polish!! I don't like having super noticable nails but having the nice sheer darkness is my favorite:) I usually put on 2 layers and it's enough for me. Also it's so shiny I never bother to put on a top coat :)

        It's okay

        EXTREMELY sheer and bubbles easily. I have better luck with other jellies. I've only used it twice and I'm almost a quarter the way through the bottle.

        Hello mfole! Thank you for sharing your experience with the nail art studio jelly gloss in the color Ink Jelly. You're right...a jelly gloss is different from a classic nail enamel. It’s made to go on in thin, buildable layers to customize your look. Use it alone or with up to 4 coats depending on the look you're going for, or layer over your favorite essie nail enamel for a unique finish. But the layers should glide on easily and should not bubble.
