AWESOME (and inexpensive)
These polishes are AWESOME for the price. My polishes were a little thicker than the one Gelish polish I own (Red Roses), however even application was not a problem. The durability was about the same most drugstore gel polishes. I ended up taking off my polish on day 14 because I needed a change and don't like the look of a naked nail bed (not because of chipping). I used a darker color (see picture - taken on day 3 and again on day 14-with some flakies) and needed 3 coats to achieve complete opacity. Color pictured is from set 22, color #196. Polishes are easy to remove (cottonball soaked in acetone wrapped around the nail with foil for 10-15 minutes).<br />The downside is that these polishes ship from overseas, so can take several weeks to arrive. They are well packaged and I did not have any breakage during shipment. In my opinion, these polishes are worth the wait and will save you a ton of money on expanding your gel polish selection.<br /><br />UPDATE 9/2015:<br />After using these polishes for several months, there are a couple more things that I wanted to comment on.<br />The pros: I still believe that for the price, you won't find better gel polish. The durability is excellent and the colors are beautiful.<br />The cons: the colors don't match exactly with the photos so if you're trying to match a color based on the photo, you will likely be disappointed. The pigment saturation is generally lower than in more expensive polishes. Meaning, while some are good two coaters, others may need up to 4 or even 5 coats (especially the microglitters in set #022 which tend to have a more jelly formula).<br />My conclusion is still the same, however. I will continue to buy more sets of this polish as I grow my collection.
