I was hoping that Cosmic Chrome would be a more opaque silver, but it is so transparent that it took 4 coats to even start to hide the details of my nails. I will use this with a base coat in an opaque color next time. Other than that, its just regular nail polish so it smells like nail polish and removes like nail polish. There is nothing else about this that is noteworthy really. I'm glad it is vegan but it has no effect on the formula.

So cute! I love the color. Had a hard time deciding between pink or purple. Got the pink and it’s the perfect jelly nail polish. I only did one coat and then put on the OPI Infinite Shine top coat.
Okay, but Expensive

Pretty, but wish it was as pretty on as it was in the bottle. I was a little underweight. Also I feel like it is expensive for what you get.

More sheer than I'd like, can only do over other colors, but ethereal escape sure is beautiful! I love it on my toes, it reminds me of a mermaid.

Ethereal Escape is so pretty on top of Essie Lilac!!! Definitely very ethereal vibes and very iridescent in person. By itself though it doesnt have “color” so it needs to be layered on top of a colored base. I did two layers of lilac, one layer of ethereal escape, and gel contour top coat to achieve this look.
Color is great, but doesnt dry well

Lovely color. Disappointed in how poorly it dries. I live in a dry climate. Have tried waiting at least 10 minutes between thin coats, but it still bubbles when I put on the top coat. It does last a long time once it does finally drive.

I got the cosmic chrome and it lives up to its name! It creates a lovely chrome effect. I used it on top of another polish and it’s sheer enough that you can still see the color underneath which I wanted!
Nice

I combined the ethereal escape with bikini so teeny, and it’s absolutely gorgeous! I can’t wait to layer this with other colors in my collection! I’m betting it will look wicked with Licorice, or Off Tropic <3
