I love gel mani's but they don't love me. My nails usually become weak and dry after removing the polish so I was thrilled to find the Essie Gel Couture collection a few weeks ago at my nail salon in Brentwood! The instant-gel collection has 42 colors to choose from that are chip-free for up to 14 days! If your salon does not carry the line, just purchase your favorite color along with the special high-gloss top coat--bring it with you for a long-lasting manicure without the added damage of a UVA-light gel one.
One of my favorite neutral colors from the collection that's perfect for Spring is called Make the Cut. All polishes from the Gel Couture Collection can be removed with regular nail polish remover and cotton without foil-soaking and scraping.

It's only a two-step process and no lamps needed--apply the color followed by the high gloss quick drying top coat!
