The colours are simply stunning, rich, opaque, gorgeous. The polish applies nicely, was opaque in two coats, and lasts me a week at least (I usually take it off before then, ever changing, so I don't know how long otherwise), but a week is long seeing as I type, do dishes, etc. There is not chipping and wear when I take it off, either. So worth it, and it dries relatively quickly, too!
