Essie Gel Couture - Beauty Marked - #280

I like the bright red color of this nail polish. It’s easy to apply and it lasts long without chipping.

Lasted more than a week without chipping!

The seller shipped it quickly and the product is what was advertised. Essie gel couture nail polish is good and I have quite a few bottles. This nail polish is a classic red. I like it.

I historically loved this color. However all 3 bottles I ordered did not have the name or nuymber of the nail polish on them. I believe I was sent a different color because it is more orange than my prior purchases of Essie Gel Couture Beauty Marked (#280).

The color is vibrant and I like especially for pedicure.

I found this color in a nail shop I use. I liked the color and its application . I bought it for touch ups for my nails.

The color appears to be pinkish red, in actuality it is red-red, with maybe the smallest hint of orange. I will keep just in case I should need such a shade, but the search for the desired color is back on. I absolutely love the Essie gel couture, it lasts just as long as gel polish but removal is as easy as a regular polish. I do use a base coat, either OPI or Essie.

I applied (2 coats) it with an Essie base coat and the matching top coat. It started to chip 3 days later. I wanted to get this as an alternative for gel manicures but it is by far not even a close alternative.

Very disappointed with this varnish, it peels of quickly, it doesn't last 2 days on.
