Review: what a LOVELY nail polish. I've been looking for a sheer pink gloss for a while ("Nail Glow" from a brand I shall not mention felt too pricey for me for a basic polish) and I've certainly found a winner. essie's Glow and Shine goes on smooth, dries fast (a HUGE problem for me—I always mess up my nails before they dry), and is overall a lovely shade of maybe-she's-born-with-it pink. the pink is buildable, which I find great. you can apply one, two, or more layers depending on whether you want a mere concealer look, a noticeable pink glow, or a semi-sheer pink. I did two coats, as shown in the attached video and photos. as for nail strengthening, I ~think~ it would make a difference with continuous use. I haven't had it long enough to say, but I have noticed that my nails FEEL much stronger that they do without it. the only complaint I have is that it chips around the edges if you use your hands often—for example, if you're like me, with frequent typing. that being said, a quick touch-up is no problem to me, especially because of how fast it dries. that being said, LOVE it. will be keeping this stocked from now on.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does someone have feedback on how to remove this kind of manicure?**
A: Essie Gel-setter comes off just like normal nail polish would with nail polish remover. If you have a salon gel mani then you should go to the salon to have it removed. There are at home tricks but you need to be careful not to mess up your nails

**Q: Can you use it over a french manicure? Will it prevent yellowing?**
A: Yes, you most definitely use it over any color.  I have used it over french manicures, reds, neutrals, etc. and I've never experienced any yellowing with my nail color.  One thing I can say, is it definitely works better with other Essie nail polishes...absolutely no chipping!  However, it still prevents major chipping with other brands and prolongs the nail color.

**Q: I prefer clear polish. Can this be used by itself or with only a base coat?**
A: I do not see why you could not use it by itself.  I do on occasion just use a base coat and then top with the gel setter, mainly because I have a base coat that I like so I do not polish my nails without it.

**Q: Is this polish easily removed with regular polish remover?**
A: Yes it removes easily with regular nail polish remover.

essie's 'Hard to Resist' is definitely hard to resist. I simply love this product. My new favourite thing in life is this pinky-hued essie nail care product. I love how smoothly it goes on, even over ridged or damaged nails. I love how it has a subtle pink tint that makes your nails look 'finished', even though it's just a basecoat -- perfect for a low maintenance, natural look, but still polished. I love how I noticed a MAJOR improvement in my nail health after only a week -- it helps reduce yellowing and really does strengthen. The pink tint is very natural looking, and gloss is not glaring, giving just enough shine to say 'yes, my nails are done'. And one application lasted about a week of hard wearing use (I work with my hands, so any regular polish chips off in about a day). I love how polished my hard working hands looked. Did I say I love the subtle pink tint? It's what I've been looking for my whole life. Love this product. Highly recommended.
