I really like this polish but do be careful and cure each nail at a time or do a very thin first layer. If you don’t it’ll run all over the place then you’ll have to wipe it off and start over. The positives to it is that it is very pigmented, it lasts for about two weeks and I save plenty of money doing my own gel manicures :)I've been a big fan of Kiara Sky for a long time. I was so excited to get this color. It applies nicely and I haven't had any issues with the transitions being splotchy. It does also have little shimmers in it which I wasn't expecting but really love! Unfortunately, as you can see from the pictures, the purple is a perfect shade but it transitions to a light baby blue instead of a light mint green. I still love the polish because blue and purple are my favorite colors, but it's not the mint color it's advertised to be- that's why it's only 4 starts instead of 5.This is a beautiful color !I had high hopes for this product. The base color is nice, but the only way I could get it to change color was to dip my nails in ice water. Might work better in a colder climate. I live in Florida so....I am absolutely in love with Plum it up! It took me ages to figure out which maroon I wanted (Kiara Sky has a ton) but I am so glad I chose this one! It is literally the perfect fall color. This was my first time applying gel polish on my own and it went beyond smoothly.. it was easy to apply and I’m impressed with the final results! I’ve used Kiara Sky gel polishes in the past at my local salon so I knew the brand was top of the line and I wouldn’t have any problems with longevity. If anyone is on the fence.. let me just say, KS is worth the expense.Ordered secret effect. Gorgeous fade and reminds me of cheshire cat! Goes on so easy and effortlessly.It is a nice color, but definitely not an ombré. It is a sky blue with a slight sparkle. Not what I was looking for- but not worth the effort to send back.Good quality, and it stays on for a very long time!Product arrived on time and packaged well. I have over 20 kiara sky gel polishes and this one is extremely clumpy and difficult to apply, I had to use a white gel as a base to get the color in the photos as I tried a swatch without white and was very opaque. Not one of my favorites for sure, but I do love the ocean blue color.The product did not quite meet my expectations, the pros, great size bottle, brush is perfect size, consistency is good for the most part, very little if any odor, goes on nicely and cures well, does not last as long as some others I've tried The cons, although application is smooth, the appearance looks anything but smooth, the change with temperature is very blotchy (see photos) does chip within a few days slightly. Will try different ombrea color to see if it is the same.No me gusto, no se parece en nada al tono , yo quería un tinto muy obscuro como el que parece ser , y es un tono ladrillo muy claro ..
