Essence Studio Nails Ultra Gloss Nail Shine

Tokom procesa traženja dobrog nadlaka jednom sam uzela nadlak iz Essence-ove Studio Nails ponude - Ultra gloss nail shine. Proizvod dolazi u bočici od 8 mililitara sa četkicom koja je srednje širine i dužine, ravno sečena i između okrugle i pljosnate. Poput drugih Essence proizvoda za nokte, ni ovaj ne sadrži toluen, formaldehid, dibutilftalat, formalinski rezin ni kamfor, niti je testiran na životinjama. Cena mu je 269 dinara i može se naći u Lilly i DM drogerijama.

During the search for a good top coat, once I bought a top coat from Essence Studio Nails line - Ultra gloss nail shine. The product comes in an 8-ml-bottle with a medium long and wide brush that is straight cut and between round and flat. Like other Essence nail products, this one doesn't contain toluene, formaldehyde, DBP, camphor or formalin resin either.

Sastav / Ingredients:
ETHYL ACETATE, ALCOHOL DENAT., BUTYL ACETATE, CELLULOSE ACETATE BUTYRATE, ACRYLATES COPOLYMER, TRIMETHYL PENTANYL DIISOBUTYRATE, SUCROSE BENZOATE, TRIPHENYL PHOSPHATE, BENZOPHENONE-1, DIMETHICONE, CI 60725 (VIOLET 2)

Ovaj brzosušeći nadlak pruža ultra visok sjaj poput ogledala i produžava trajanje laka za nokte! / This fast drying top coat gives an ultra glossy, mirror-like shine and extends the wear of nail polish!

 Sam nadlak je ređe, vodenastije formule, ali nisam imala problema sa slivanjem u zanoktice. Tokom vremena se zgušnjava tako da u jednom trenutku se dostigne optimalna gustina ali, nažalost, dostigne se i onaj drugi trenutak kada mu je potrebno razređivanje (posle polovine bočice). Četkica je plastična no ni to mi nije otežalo nanošenje, ali zato ume da pokupi lak tako da je treba čistiti kako se sam nadlak ne bi ofarbao. Verujem da je to do etil-acetata koji zauzima prvo mesto na listi sastojaka sa čim se i čulo mirisa prilično slaže. Ume nekad da razmulja manikir ali se laganijim pokretima to može smanjiti ili skroz izbeći. Ne suši se brzo kao neki drugi nadlakovi koje sam probala ali je i dalje prihvatljivo vreme koje mu je potrebno da se osuši. Zadovoljna sam postojanošću, bela linija se javlja tek oko četvrtog dana, a bar još toliko treba da prođe kako bo lak počeo da se krza. Pruža visok sjaj manikiru, koji je još izraženiji ukoliko se nanesu dva sloja nadlaka.

The top coat itself is a bit thin, with water-like formula, but I had no problems with it ending in my cuticles. During the time, it becomes thicker so at one point its density is optimal, but, unfortunately, it reaches the other side when thinner is needed (when less the half the bottle remains). The brush is plastic but that didn't made the application more difficult either, but the polish can end on it so it has to be cleaned before putting back into the bottle so the top coat itself doesn't get tinted. It also may smudge the design but that can be avoided or at least reduced with light moves. I believe it's up to the ethyl-acetate which is at the first place of the ingredients list which my nose definitely confirms. It doesn't dry as quickly as some other top coats I've tried but still the drying time is acceptable. I am satisfied with the wear time, the white line would appear on fourth day and it takes another three or four days for the polish to start chipping. It gives a manicure very glossy look which is even better if top coat is applied in two layers. 

Sve u svemu, ovaj nadlak i nije tako loš, sve zavisi šta tražite od ovakvog proizvoda. I pored dobrih osobina, ne verujem da ću ponovo kupiti ovaj nadlak, pogotovo kada se uzme u obzir da se po istoj ceni mogu uzeti i bolji.

Je l' ste probale ovaj nadlak? Šta Vi mislite o njemu? 

All in all, this top coat is not bad, it all depends on what you expect from this kinds of product. Besides good features of this top coat, I don't think I will buy it again, especially when there are better ones in the same price range (at least in Serbia).

Have you tried this top coat? What do you think about it?
