Long lasting polish that comes off with regular nail polish remover.

### ⭐⭐ Review
*by J***S on 27 March 2026*

I like their regular and express formulas and this one is worse in all ways. It's thinner so I would have needed 3 coats to get full opaque coverage, but it also takes longer to dry somehow? So I stick with 2 coats plus base and top and even with 3-4 mins under a UV lamp per coat and 30-60 mins no hand use afterwards I still have yet to get a flawless result. Really disappointed in this and that I can't return them. I also hate the twisted wand (functionally annoying when I'm removing excess polish on the edge) and the twisted bottle takes up more space with zero benefit. Enshitification at its finest. Don't fall for the hype, this is a useless line--get the classic.
