A dream come true looks like it might be a close match to Glamour Queen??

Thanks for posting the first set of swatches!

I bought 4 colors yesterday and 3 of them were very similar to what I already had. I had to go back to Ulta today for something else I forgot and I asked it they would take them back. She said "Sure, just bring your receipt". How cool!!! There were about 5 or 6 colors that didn't come in yet, so I will check back later. One of them that had "Designer" in the name wasn't there and looked interesting. If someone gets that, let me know what it looks like, please!

I got three colors, but in spite of taking my nail wheels with me I still got a dupe! Glad to know they will let me do an exchange!

I just PM'd you the info. Let me know if you don't get it.

I didn't get anything. Can you resend?

This would seem to indicate that it is - along with Artistic Colour Gloss! - http://www.trademarkia.com/company-nail-tech-supply-inc-844210-page-1-2

Interesting. Especially since I thought Tom Bachik created ACG, and Danny Hale is the president of NTS, but Gelish isn't listed there. Hm. Finding out business info was never my forte. Oh - edit - i see Gelish is listed under NTS california or something. Interesting. very very interesting.

If the colors aren't really that different and they are the small bottles, I wonder if these are really worth getting? The only thing I may look into is the Structure which, in the picture, appears to be in a normal nail polish bottle with the brush...

I think that is what they are just calling their basecoat, to be honest. I don't think it is Akin to Gelish's structure.

It's similar, but not exactly the same. It's a dupe for Geleration's Coral Reef Daisies.

I got:
1. A dream come true
2. Candid Moment, an opaque milky very light pink
3. Leading Lady (might be like It's a Lily, but not sure since I don't have that one - might be more purple)
4. Drop Dead Gorgeous - I think this one is like gelish ocean wave

When I get my new swatch sticks I will post swatches.

I would like to know how close the bottles are to the cured colors?

two of mine are kinda close, two aren't really. The two cremes I have seem closer than the shimmers

I went to Ulta today to look at the colors. Some were similar to Gelish colors I already have, but I still have no power and couldn't swatch my existing colors. My husband was also waiting in the car so I felt rushed and decided to wait til tomorrow when I could go alone and stand in front of the display uninterrupted to decide which colors I want and take advantage of the 20% off.

Good to know they will exchange colors in case I buy something I already have.

I guess I can only hope that someone starts reselling it on ebay soon.

I've emailed Ulta asking about an eta for Northern VA, and am waiting to hear back.

i am so curious about this too...i just get mine done every couple of weeks at a nail salon and it would be nice to have a DIY option! i got my ulta flyer in the mail yesterday that was promoting this product line.

 

[merekat703]

I just ordered the whole set online and used the 20% off code. I hope it works as good as they say.

I really think its the same product as Gelish or ACG, which works great for me (and most of us here). Are you currently using gelish or one of the others?

I have 6 of the colors and the base and top coat and it seems to work fine for me! I hope you have as much luck as me! The "glitter" bottle are more of a sheen instead of the glitter. The white bottle with the glitter on it I forget the name but it's a glitter coat and it's gorgeous! I have a swatch on page 3 I think! definitely post other swatches of the colors! I'm curious to see the other ones!
