Nails.INC It's Topless Hailey Lilac Gel-Like Nail Polish

It goes on very smoothly and the colour is gorgeous with only 2 coats. I was very skeptical using a red shade with no base coat because my nails ALWAYS stain with reds... however... this did not stain at all! I haven't tested it's full longevity yet but after 3 days there were no chips in the varnish at all (all different nail varnishes regularly chip after a day or 2 on my nails so this is a very good sign)Being able to do my nails in 2 coats rather than a total of 4 when using a base and top coat has made such a difference! Will definitely be buying more colours

I was so sceptical about the idea of using no base or top coat for this nail polish I put off buying them how wrong I wasTheis is the quickest and most easily applied nail polish I own I do not buy any other brand nails inc have been my favourite for a while always so easy to apply and long lastingWhen i got this polish i also ordered the nail repair polish so i did a test one hand with just the topless coat and the other hand with the repair polish as a base coat the topless coat on it’s own lasted longer I wasn’t expecting thatMy only concern would be possible staining if the polish was really dark but after using a darker polish on my toes and having no issues with removing I again was surprised unless certain colours stained I haven’t had that issueThe coverage is easy to apply and covers well it’s chip resistant is excellent and the difference between chipping compared to other brands is why I only know use nail inc i think it’s the best nail polish of others similar priceThe shine is perfect and it looks like a professional colourI will defo be buying more topless polish and hope they continue to do more shades in this range

Bought three of these in Paloma (peach), Miley (pink) and Giselle (blue). Paloma was a disaster - The colour is more dead salmon or sallow flesh tone than the pretty peach tone in the photos and it went on really clumpy. Miley is a perfect, bright pretty mid pink that went on easily (without any nail prep) and has looked great for a week so far. Giselle is even prettier on the nail - a perfect pastel true blue. So - two wins and one bottle that will not be used again.

Did toe nails have lasted 2 weeks now. Very easy to apply.

It is not as described and how it gets such good reviews I do not know. I’ve been doing my nails for years and this is absolutely the worst product I’ve used.It is thick and gloopy, not gel like at all. The coverage is patchy at best. It creates ridges as you put the coat on. It looks awful as the colour has cracked around the edges. And worst of all, it has chipped after just 20 minutes of wear! I was only eating a yogurt, not scraping my nails down a brick wall! Do not waste your money on this product. You’d be better off using a kid’s colouring pen instead. Awful! Complete waste of money. I have returned this as it is false advertising.

Colour is good and consistent with what you choose to buy. It doesn't chip easily but does rub down/thin at ends if you dont do at least 2 coats (especially if your'e a Mum and use your hands all day). Coats build the colour. It is smooth enough to apply, but not as smooth as other brands, and the brush is nice (though I think all brands are too wide). It's not gloopy or thick but just doesn't sink into ridges as well as other brands. It is not glossy at all. I have about 5 colours - none of them are glossy. It tastes well and doesnt go thick and unusable quickly.

Forget all other nail varnishes. This is the one. This really is like a gel polish that you can do at home, without a UV light. At a similar price point to regular varnishes, this gel-like polish is far superior. Easy to put on, glides easily. As with any polish, don't press too hard when applying and don't apply too thick. (Always better to apply multiple thinner coats than fewer thick coats, just trust me!) I found it lasted 2 weeks without chipping at all, which for a regular nail varnish is crazy good. Others chip after like 3-5 days. What I will say (again true for any polish) is you should really let your nails dry between coats. I do one coat after I have my dinner and I'm just going to be sitting watching tv. It's touch dry pretty quickly. Then I wait *overnight* and do the next coat in the morning. Then if it needs a 3rd coat I'll do it around 6pm again. Not everyone has the time to be doing their nails in the morning I get that, but this is what I've worked out to get it to last the longest. I did my mums nails 2 coats about 2 hours between and the coverage was great and lasted just over a week before it chipped (she's constantly gardening, getting her fingers covered in all sorts and using tools, still lasted over a week). So I think this is absolutely worth the money and I'll be buying it in multiple colours!!

Beautiful quality and colour

I hate nail polish because it just cracks, not this stuff!!! This is the best polish I’ve ever used!!! Hands down! I’m ordering another color! I will start a whole collection of this stuff. I am going to add a picture to my review. This is day four or five of my nails and usually by now they would be 100% chipped. This is just the polish no topcoat and they just started to chip at the very top probably because I do dishes two times a day lol again I absolutely love this polish best one I’ve ever used and I will be starting a collection of these. This is extremely easy to apply it dries very fast. The colors is extremely bold. I also bought it on sale for five dollars, which is insane for a polish of this quality! The color is so bold. I’m literally just floored by this stuff.

Pros: The color, Sophia, was as hoped and expected. Comes off easily with regular remover. Nails maybe a little stronger than before the polishCons: It dries very quickly so you have to move quickly. Really not able to repeat brushstrokes - to get better coverage and what not. Chipped the first day and definitely does not have the gel shine.I really wanted this polish to work - the time and money invested is much less, the color is what I've not found in my usual gel - it just didn't live up to the reviews or the claims. I only paid $5 which is reasonable but not for a bottle of polish I'll never use again. The landfill is already overflowing with useless stuff.

Best nail polish I have ever used. Is that too big of a compliment? Nope. I don't like salon gels or dips, too expensive, too time consuming and the damage to my nails takes so long to recover. I don't always wear gloves to wash dishes or clean house so my "other" polishes chip after a couple of days. Enter 1 Step. It may not be a "gel" per se, but it sure is the next best thing. It doesn't seem to "chip." It seems to "fade at the tips. Easy fix. Easy to apply, even with my left hand, just make sure you push your cuticles back. The color Lily is a "demure" mauve, perfect for making my hands look groomed. But I have also purchased the color Kendall for when I want something a little flashier. Drying time is a little longer than 50 seconds, but it still dries pretty quick in minutes. Finally something that works. Can't wait to try other colors.

This polish was OK.Very easy to apply- I put on two coats. Looked great.Only issue was that it started chipping off after a day or two.

This polish is remarkable! It is truly a one and done polish. And, I have never had a polish last so long. And I am pretty hard on it as I don’t wear gloves when doing dishes or anything else. It just doesn’t chip. Unbelievable!
