China GlazeNail Polish, Dress Me Up 1121

Liked color on toenails!

This is the most exciting nail polish I have ever used. It does not chip!! Shiny, gorgeous!! Must try!

I am in love with this new polish! The color is exactly what is shown here online and looks even better on my nails. The polish is very forgiving when putting it on which I love as I'm not a professional but enjoy making my nails look well manicured. The first time I used it I did 1 thin coat followed by a 2nd coat. The second coat wasn't as thin - but I wouldn't call it a thick coat. Just enough to cover my nail well. I did this and then let them air dry for over 40 minutes (I walked on the treadmill - worked out well!). They seemed dried by this time and I went about my day - but after waking up the next morning, I found several indents and spots on my nails - more than I would have expected from putting polish on at 10:30am that day (for example, I could tell where my sheets had made a mark on them from sleeping that night - 12 hours later!). So, perhaps I had too much polish - but I didn't apply this any differently then, say, OPI, and I don't have that problem with OPI.Despite those issues, however, the polish stayed on for almost a week without any further damage which was great!Once I removed it (does leave some blue on your fingers that took some extra time to remove). I cleaned up my nails and reapplied. Similar story again - however this time I actually did 3 coats to get the polish completely opaque (the first time I realized later that there were some spots still showing light through when I'd hold them at a different angle). The polish looked great and held up fairly well - but again that night, I got marks from my sheets and a few other small dinks in the finish. Clear coat to the rescue! The following morning I added a thin coat of just some top coat I had in my stash - and my nails look EXCELLENT! All imperfections are gone and they're looking great 4 days later!So, minus one star due to the seemingly long time this polish takes to cure, but 4 stars in that it is a great color and very easy to apply (seems to self level which is awesome!)

Very good nail polish last quite a while I like it

China Glaze is one of my favorite brands--5 free, vegan, and has strengtheners that work. This color is so pretty with the subtlest of gold flecks. And you cannot beat a Beatles-related name!

Great color, sort of a dark forest green with dark teal undertones. Love it, it's real fun!!China Glaze is my favorite nail polish, and a favorite of most of my friends too. I've heard some complain on here (Amazon) about how it's too thin, requires several coats, color is not true, yada yada yada.I dispute all of that. China Glaze is NOT your average nail polish. Apply ONE (1) VERY THICK COAT. One thick coat that you would never do with another polish... real thick, so that you have full coverage and there's no nail showing through. Let dry... it dries really fast compared to other polishes. You're done! No second coat ever needed, and I have about 20 different colors... it's been the same with every one! I have never found a color that required more than one THICK coat.It glides on beautifully, dries quickly... but my favorite thing about it is the relatively low odor. The "nail polish smell" dissipates pretty quickly. An hour or two after I paint my nails, I can no longer smell it.Sure, a dark color like this is going to show chips... touch ups are easy and look great. I often get a week or more from my manicure, just by touching up. Light colors, I get even more time from.I can't say enough great things about China Glaze. It's the best polish on the market, in my humble opinion!

China Glaze is great polish and lasts a long time between pedicures, but it cannot be returned. It is the wrong color. Kinda' of a negative...

This is a review of the China Glaze color "Dress Me Up". This is a great color: kind of brown, kind of mauve, very neutral with a medium tone, not too light, not too dark. I was expecting it to be lighter but it is definitely more of a medium range color. This stuff goes on easy and has some serious staying power. I have found that even within a brand, some colors last way longer than others. So, some formulas are just better than others. This is a good one. I actually prefer China Glaze polishes to other brands. Essie chips super fast on me. Opi is hit or miss. China Glaze polishes usually have good staying power and they do actually make my brittle nails feel harder. I just wish the colors were a little more subtle. A lot of them are kind of garish. Essie, by comparison, has a great range of colors with a lot of nuance. Dress me up is a nice nuanced color unlike some other China Glaze colors.

I've only use this once so far, but I was very happy with the results. As with all polishes that have large bits in it, just going over the nail in one layer wont really work too good (but I was prepared for that). You might find it easier to use a dotting tool (or similar) to place the bits on your nail one by one, and then drench the nail in top coat.I do love this polish though and there are loads of "bits" in the polish (not like those cheap versions that's mainly clear polish), but I'll probably wait a little (closer to Christmas time perhaps?) before using it again.As with all "glitter" polishes (although these "bits" were plain, not glittery!) removal will take longer than with usual polishes, but again, this I was prepared for.

first trial of this seller and indeed china glaze polish. dress me up is a lovely dusky tone. coffee colour with pink leanings reminds me of a clover polish from the 70s. it is neutral with a bite. good coverage from a thin brush, and you could get away with one coat. nice and shiny buti will use a coat of seche for durability. quick delivery and five stars for both the polish and the seller. my favourite purchase this year!

purchased 4 colour's as i have been using gel for eighteen months none stop, felt like my nails needed a break. China glaze takes not time to dry and stays on well added bonus it wipes off no sitting round with fingers wrapped up in tin foil.very impressed. will be buying more.

Goes on beautifully and lasted for ages on my acyrlic nails, wore it for four weeks and only had to touch up the edges a bout twice and even then it blended in so well you couldn't even see that the edges had been touched up.

I have previously spent a ridiculous amount of money on China glaze products in the past so I was expecting a little more from this product. The texture is rather clumpy and hard to manage and spread on the nail.
