Definitely try it because of the brush. I'm even thinking of cleaning out an old polish bottle and switching out the brush so I can use this one with my other Essie colors. I was able to do my pinkies in one stroke!
All brushes were not created equal! I have some that are easier to apply neatly because of the brush!Definitely try it because of the brush.

China Glaze Light As Air
Ah ok, thanks Cockatiel! Just ordered it - love chinchilly so I should really like this one too!
dark colors tend to look better with my skin tone.
Essie Gel Couture is like regular polish and doesn't need UV light to cure. It's supposed to be longer lasting than regular polish but it doesn't on my nails. The wide brush is the only upside of this line for me.I don't post more often because when I do get my nails done I usually end up picking the same dark purple types even in summer
Is the Essie Gel Couture line the one you guys are saying has a good brush? And do you need to use it with a machine or is it like gel polish you can use like you do regular polish?

Next I think I'm going to try the thermal ones I bought, they are a bit paler.
I have mainly dark colours, I'm liking all these pinks on other people but I'm not really a pink person. Purple yes!
I had my last manicure right before I was due with my son and he just turned 5 weeksThis thread is motivating me to finally get my nails redone! Lovely colors everyone!
Well, it's not the in and out quick part I'm worried about. It's the getting out of the house part I have trouble with

I RARELY get my nails done professionally either, I can literally count the times, each before big events like my wedding, right before I had each of my sons, etcI hardly ever bothered having my nails done unless I was going for a night out. And even then it was mostly DIY. I had them done with acrylics a LONG time ago for the prom of one of the schools I worked at. I had a french manicure for my first wedding (2007). I had gels professionally done a few times, like the first time I went to NYC with my DF and I was sure he was going to propose...
But they didn't last me long (<2 weeks) so I didn't think they were worth the expense.
Then I started buying indie nail polish last September and now got into doing my own gels. If I'm doing them myself I'm happy with 1 week wear.
Then I get to change it up more regularly
