I just got my nails done with Romantique and it's not for me. It is streaky and way too white. Is negligee better? I'm looking for something closer to Essie madamsiselle

Negligee is closer to Madamiselle but I found it was streaky too. I think maybe all their light colors steak. I would stick with Essie

I like Negligee very much. Nails look clean and have a light, natural color--not too white or streaky. This nail polish lasts a very, very long time and with Negligee, even if you get a small chip, it is hardly noticeable. I hope this is helpful.

I like this color a lot, especially with two coats. It's pale but not white. I am not impressed with the durability of Vinylux at all. Mine never stays on beyond 3 days, it chips and peels too easily. Are you happy with the product in general?

I have done them both ways. Big thing, make sure your nails are very dry from water. And that your hands are warm, sticks better. I use the French nails, if you have a pretty color nail bed of your own, no need to polish first with a color. I do, mine are not great. After applying, I put a coat of clear instant dry clear over them. They last up to 4 weeks. Totally worth the time to apply, first time took me 2 hours. Now I'm down to an hour. Well worth it. Hope this helps.

You will get the exact same result as in the salon. It took me a few time to get the technique down now I'm good. Don't use a lot of polish and don't put it to close to the cuticle. To save money I use the base and top coat that comes with it and I buy my gel polish when it's on sale at Walgreens the brand Sensational and Kiss are just as good as all the other and I prefer to use them. I am 100% happy with it.

I had the exact same question so I purchased both at first. Honestly? I didn't notice any difference - even tried mixing it up one day after another. I suspect other variations of this product from other big-name manufacturer's offer this variation and NYX just duplicated the formulations. NYX setting spray works great compared to the more expensive brands. It's noticeably better quality than the larger bottled, cheaper brands - I even tried using those after I first set my foundation and powder then using the NYX spray after it dried for a final "touch up" - but there was a noticeable drop in finished look. I would suggest one helpful tip for satisfaction with this product. The fineness of the spray misters on these bottles is lame when it comes to using as a finishing sprayer. I bought an Urban Decay travel size finishing spray: it provides a lovely even mist ideal for setting. I now refill the small UD sprayer with NYX. You'll get about 1 and 1/3 refills of the UD sprayer from each of these small bottles of NYX - thus, I now buy two NYX at a time from Amazon. Still keep a larger Urban Decay setting spray bottle on my shelf for dressy nights. Still notice UD is a little better look than NYX but not enough to use it every day for work since it costs so much more. Good luck!

I did and it did not compare well. I have yet to buy Younique because I really can't afford it. I tried it at a vendor event and it was very different! There was a ton more fibers and I could see my lashes growing with every swipe. With this one there were hardly any fiber to be seen. I wrote them to tell them this and they said that that was normal! They offered to give a couple dollars back but I asked for more tubes of fiber they then offered me a dollar more! I just wanted fibers :(

I don't know - I've never tried the polish you mention. For other polishes I use Seche Vite and it works well.

I use a cheaper primer from sensationails but I have done my nails without a primer. Just make sure to buff the nails first in order to remove any oils. You want them to be clean and oil free in order for the base to stick and not peel.

If it is a metallic 1 will work but all other colors take 2 and no matter what they are streaky and take forever to dry. I use Seche Vite topcoat which sets my polish for as long as I wear it but this will still dent after drying unless it is a metallic. Hope this helps because I have so many from this that look beautiful in the bottle but won't dry and are streaky.

Not familiar with naissant,sorry. I can tell you that if you are wanting to banish brassiness, in any haircolor, Nexxus will surely do the trick. It's very concentrated, so you use only a little amount.

Two problems could be in play:1 try a different brand of polish: nailuv is my favorite. Right now I'm using the gelish bond, base & top coat. I'm going to try nailuv next time I purchase those basics.2 make sure you are extending the brush all the way through to the tip on all edges of the nail. Then cap the nail on all sides with your polish steps and your base/top coat steps. This should help. Pay extra attention to your edges and polish should last longer. Sensationail polish only lasts about 5-6 days for me though. Nailuv lasted almost 10 before I took it off because I wanted a new color. Oh and for the bottoms, try to be as thin as possible for each layer, avoid your cuticles...that should help!! Two problems could be in play:1 try a different brand of polish: nailuv is my favorite.

My niece is a manicurist and works mostly with the cnd brand but told me uv/ led brands are interchangeable. I used cnd base and top coat with gelish Polish a week ago and my nails still look perfect!

The American Crew is an excellent styling gel, but in my opinion, not strong enough for the modern slicked back styles. If you need a super strong hold, I would try something else.

I don't really know as I only purchased Negligee. I was disappointed in the product, overall. I was looking for an alternative to GEL polish, which takes a long time to remove. CND Vinylux, unfortunately, was not the answer to GEL. I'd be curious to hear what you think of the product once you use Vinylux. Thanks.

I agree with Scottie. There are easier ways but the polish doesn't last. Take the time to use the Maas polish and you will have a long lasting shine. It also won't damage the finish.

No it's only for acrylic nails. You should try a product called gelousy if you want to do gel. It's great!

Thank you for mentioning this problem. I will use a clear-coat nail polish over my white lettering. Hope that will make it last longer.
