Olive & June Gel Nail Polish - 0.46 fl oz

Finally, a HEMA-free gel polish in a local store, not online over seas.

Absolutely love this color!! I’ve been looking for a light pink/white color and I finally found it! The brush is amazing, curved at tip to get the brush as close to the cuticle as possible, and it leaves every coat looking great! Absolutely love this brand and will be coming back for more!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I originally ordered the full gel mani set in an attempt to save money by doing my nails at home but still have long lasting manicures, as normal polish would last less than a week before chipping. I absolutely love this system! It has everything you need and I’ve found it such a nice routine to do my own nails. I would say in the beginning the manicures would last a week but I’ve gotten better at the prep and process so now a solid two weeks. Most recently I added new colors to my collection including this gorgeous red. It’s bright, pigmented, and fun! Highly recommend

I have been doing my own mani's for over 10 years. Seeing O & J's really beautiful colors I decided to try the brand. What a difference! This polish goes on so creamy, it just flows very nice. Lasts as it should and the vibrant color seems to hold better than others I've used. I've ordered more & will certainly be using O & J exclusively.

Love the gel formula and this blue toned red is gorgeous!

I liked the polish quite a lot, the color was nice but I had to use more than the two recommended layers for it to be fully covered. I previously tried other HEMA based polishes and had allergic reactions so I thought to try this one since it said HEMA-free, well...I ended up getting contact dermititis from using this polish. My fingers started stinging within hours of using the polish and blisters formed within 24 hours. The last gel polish I used only caused my cuticles to swell a bit, this was a whole different issue and it was a bit worse. I wouldn't recommend this polish if you've had issues like this with other gel polishes, but if you have no skin issues related to gel polishes I would highly recommend, it was a nice gel polish regardless.

Love the color!! The quality of the gel is awesome just like a salon!!!

I have gotten quite a few gels in the past couple of weeks and this is the worst one I've bought it stays sticky, no matter how long I've cured it

Like the title says, this is really the perfect red! It has blue undertones so I would definitely put it more in the cool than warm category which I love for my pale skin tone!

Babes, in the most loving way, if this isn't lasting it's because you're not prepping your nails or curing long enough. Also people saying it's sticky after? It's gel polish...you've gotta wipe it with alcohol to get rid of the sticky. I use my hands all day long and this polish doesn't budge. It's also HEMA free which means no allergic reaction like if you used something like Beetles Gel and got it on your skin. Also, and I cannot stress this enough, if you are working with Gel then you need a good lamp. For something like just Gel polish, go get yourself a SunUV lamp. For actual application, I do my cuticle care with my drill, then lightly buff my nail plate, wash my hands, wipe the nail plate with alcohol, then apply my base and cure for 90 seconds. Then I apply a layer, cure for 90 seconds and apply another which I also cure for 90 seconds. Then I apply my top coat and cure for...you guessed it 90 seconds HAHA if I ever get polish on my skin, I take a nail brush dipped in polish remover and clean it up before curing. Then after it's allllll cured, I take an alcohol wipe and wipe the top. Boom, lasts me like a month (or until I can't stand the grow out and change them). You've got this, give yourself some grace and time to learn and you'll have gorg (safe <3) nails in no time queen.

Horrible! I love painting my nails. I bought my fav non-gel O&J color (GH) in the gel polish. It is so thick that it is so hard to work with. Once cured, it also feels a bit sticky. Stick with their regular (non-gel) polish! Wasted $30 (base, color and top coat polish).

I’m a long time lover of all of Jones’s regular nail polish so I thought I would try the gel nail polish out. This polish lasted me not even three hours. I thought it could’ve been my application but I’ve tried three different times and it does not last. I have tried other gel nail polishes with the UV light and they have all lasted way longer than Olive in June. I would not buy again.

Better than Salon! I purchased the 3 step polishes. The polish lasts longer than professional polishes at the salon. I would recommend this product. I can’t wait to get more colors. I think this is a great deal!

Love the color bold & unshaken. It’s a great purple! I’ve used KMC as well and it was a great pale minty green! Easy to do, if doing your own I recommend one hand fully at a time!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a perfect shade of red. This painted like a dream. I wore this gel mani for 2 weeks and red is such a power color. Loved waking up with this amazing looking mani everyday. So shiny, plump and long lasting, I was sad to see it go.

CV-Gel is a little more red in color than what I thought it would be. It is very pretty but not the orange I thought it would be!

Not the best and not the worst. Brush is too bulky. Gel is too thick and gloopy. If you’re careful you can get it to work. Wish there were more light neutral options. CCT is like a pale ballet slipper, but kinda greyish. It’s acceptable as a HEMA free option. No itching or reactions like other gels. It lasts 2 weeks with no lifting.

This was applied in 2 thin coats as directed and is a brighter red. Nowhere near the color of the bottle, which the colors are usually true to. That said, I’ve had it on for 2 days including a 45 minute swim workout and no peeling, chipping, lifting or fading.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gel nails pop off after one day. I have applied all the layers and cured as directed. I have tried on 3 different occasions with same results. So disappointed!

Despite curing between coats and an additional two more times, the polish never fully cured and remains sticky. Never had this issue with other at home gel manicures.
