I loved the color so I purchased the CND base and top coat recommended for the polish-I have a UV dryer lamp already.
I'm not an idiot and know how to give myself a manicure. This product, which ended up costing me more than a professional manicure would after buying the recommended base and top coats, as well as the polish wouldn't have been bad IF it would last.
It doesn't.
Additionally the polish was gloopy, didn't flow off the brush at all and I ended up pouring some into a glass cup and adding polish remover to try and get a smooth texture. I applied and removed this polish 4 times the first time I tried it and still ended up with a smeary manicure. Even thinning a bit of it didn't help the application process. I loathed the texture of the polish. Coverage was also poor-it took 5 coats of the slightly diluted version and 4 coats direct from the bottle to get good coverage-it isn't called a translucent polish but it sure worked that way for me.
This was my first experience with CND product and I'll never waste my money on another bottle of their polish. At least I can use the base and top coat with other brands-I hope.
I can't recommend this brand if this is typical of their product.
Fortunately there are a lot more turquoise colored polishes out there that are better than this one. I especially like the OPI Turquoise green color "Dont Mess With OPI" and the China Glaze "Turned up Turquoise" for a true turquoise blue that stays on and doesn't chip readily, is smooth to apply and literally flows from the brush. Either are a great improvement over this CND product.

When looking at polish color in photo online polish appears to be a bright turquoise. When applying polish it is a bit translucent. I applied it thicker to get the color closer to the bottle. Came out pretty good. I thought it would have been too thick to apply 2 coats. Great packaging.
