Was supper excited to try this Essie color! Soon became disappointed when I noticed the nail polish had been used and about a quarter of the product was missing.
Great staying power

This polish is the best nail polish I own in terms of lasting. I only have this one shade so I cannot speak to the whole line, but I have many other brands that do not compare to this one. I’ve had it on for almost two weeks and there are no real chips. I am rough on my hands and wash them a lot so this is pretty spectacular. The color itself is a great neutral with a milky look. My biggest complaint is I don’t see many color options that I like. Would love to see more oranges and more beige and medium grey neutrals.

This is the best polish I've ever had. You MUST prep your nails first. It never chips. In 2 weeks the tips just wear off a little like a professional salon job. I'm extremely happy with this polish & top coat. Please read & follow instructions & it really works.

Soooo disappointed with this nail polish. Love the color and dry time but everything else is disappointing. I have had to repaint nails every day since putting this on a few days ago and using the top coat that is in the same line. It wore away and I used gloves to wash dishes. It also chipped which is more understandable but then one nail completely peeled off after a day. I’m so sad this didn’t work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a cute color: exactly what I was looking for. Very dainty and slightly sheer while still giving a nice amount of coverage. Easy to use. Scent is average, a bit loud.
Beautiful natural looking nails

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the durability of this nail polish, being a mom makes me look for products that are great quality, and Essie never fails. This Gossamer Garments nail polish is so beautiful and natural looking. I am one of those girls who likes wearing natural nails, but also wants them to look clean and beautiful and this is exactly what the nail polish does. My nails look clean, but he only adds shine and a little bit of color mostly enhancing the color I already have my nails. Makes them look healthy and shiny. I would definitely buy this again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Application was easy enough and product was fast to dry after using it. Color is very cute and subtle so I used it as a under layer before putting a translucent glittery nail polish to make the color pop out more and It seem to work pretty well. Smells was the usual nail polish scent, nothing different in that. Shade range seems huge and packaging looks glamorous and stylish!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a nice light pink color, it’s pigmented just enough. I can use this with or without the glitter polish. It dries easy and it’s a nice subtle color. I definitely would buy again
Long lasting but stains after removal

xo - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
With well prepped cuticles, this nail polish will last perfectly for well over a week. It’s pretty easy to remove, with a little more effort than regular polish but nothing crazy. However, this polish stained my nails so badly. You can see exactly where the polish was and the stain is not coming off even after multiple tries with nail polish remover. This was specifically with rock the runway (red). I haven’t tried other colors so I can’t speak for them but it’s definitely something to keep in mind!
Nice Essie pink polish

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This color is so classy and leaves for pretty nails. The foest coat is very light, so I usually do at least 2. I can also top it off with one of the Essie second step coats like the glazed chrome. It dries quicker than most regular nail polish but still takes some time with multiple coats. It lasts almost a week before some chipping but covering it up with more polish is easy.
Applies beautifully, the perfect everyday shade

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The polish applies so smoothly and evenly. You can do one coat for a more natural sheer look. Gossamer Garment was like the perfect soft look. This is my new favorite everyday shade.
Finally the nail polish problem has been solved

I am blown away. I spend $45 on dip nails and they chip around 10 days and ruin my nails (if I peel off the dip). I am on day 7 with this nail polish and no chips! Saving so much money and also love the top coat as it makes the nails look like a gel manicure. Highly recommend!
So pretty and cutie

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved both of these colors. The pink is super subtle but cute. The packaging was simple. The scent was not over powering like other brands. The chip resistance is superior compared to other brands. The shine and drying time were great.

Terrible. Chipped in less than 24 hours. Unable to return since it was used. Very spendy so very frustrating

Hi there! We are disappointed to hear about your experience with our Gel Couture Polish in the shade You Ca-Dy It, and that you had chipping. We will share this information with our teams. For Best results we suggest always using a Top Coat like our Gel Couture Top Coat after polishing. We hope this information is helpful and you give it another try!
Gorgeous !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t get over how gorgeous Essie Gossamer Garments is! It’s this dreamy, soft lavender-pink that feels so airy and elegant—like it was made for any season. The formula is smooth and creamy, so it glides right on without streaks, and the color payoff is stunning in just two coats. It dries fairly quickly, which is perfect for me because I’m always on the move, and it has that glossy, fresh-manicure look for days without chipping. Every time I look at my nails, it feels like a little mood boost. Definitely one of those colors that makes you feel instantly put together.
