What she said.....
I've ONLY used the color, SUNSET CORAL, not the whole system...

It applied well, removed well....I have wear issues so it didn't last that long, but that's just me prolly:smile1:
 
Does anyone know if the Sensational light can be used w/ Gelish mini or RCM? And can the RCM light be used w/ Gelish mini?

I've used my SensatioNail light with RCM and the Gelish top and base coats (no color yet) and it's worked great!

I'd say the price is worth it for the light, but the colors are sort of iffy, in terms of value. However, they are really opaque. I have a SensatioNail color and and RCM that are really similar and the SensatioNail is opaque in 2 coats vs 3.

Thanks TartanHearts!
 
I thought the exact same thing! (iridescent) I bought a regular nail polish that looked gorgeous. Nice pink iridescent...but the consistency was awful. Sally Hansen AISLE BE THERE... Thick and dried too fast. Even looked milky.

Pink chiffon was the mani I just removed. It lasted about 4 days (my average for gelish is only about 7) before it started lifting at the tips. And the soak off was hideous and painful. Even the ones that were lifting. I think they re adhered. I have naturally thin bendy nails. When it was soaking the polish didnt peel at all. It made the sides of my nails curl inward, pinching my fingertip. I had to scrape down to the base and then soak again. And it felt real gritty.

What kind of iridescent did you use?

I haven't done it yet, but Im planning to top with Supernail Progel Glowing Aura. I've read snippets of people saying they buffed off a topcoat after finishing a manicure to add glitter or something else, but I am too chicken to do that for fear of ruining my mani and having to redo it. I will probably try it towards the end of the life of this mani.
