essieTreat Love & Color Nail Polish For Normal to Dry/Brittle Nails, Laven-Dearly, 0.46 fl. oz.

I got 2 colors: On the Mauve and Sheers to you, I love them both! Sheers to You is a very sheer (3 coats to see any tint of color at all) pink, perfect for a subdued french manicure or a natural look. It's now my go-to base coat too: nothing chips when I use it. On the Mauve was surprisingly pink! I expected it to be a bit peachy-er but it's a classic very pale cool toned pink, the cream finish gives it a little edge.I bought Lavendearly in a store months ago which is how I was turned onto essie TLC, it's also a great color, a sheer cool toned off-white with a just a tiny bit of lavender shimmer, I love how it looks with 2-3 coats: you can just see your natural nail under the sheer color.My nails peel really badly and TLC has helped them so much! I also take a fish-oil supplement which is great if you have hair/nail issues.

I've been using this for 2 weeks and have to admit my nails feel a lot healthier, they seem softer, stronger. Normally when I remove nail polish they are dry and brittle but when I remove this polish they are great. This tone has practically no color but the shine is a very cute lilac/pinkish. You can hardly tell when it chips as it's so light but it still gives a nice shine to the nails way better than bare. I would recommend this.

This product can stay on your nails all week long easily. With moderate household work. But. It dries forever! Prepare have 40 minutes to hour to get it dry completely. Can't say about cure. Need more time.

I use to be a nailbiter and they needed some strengthening. I have been applying this once a week to keep my tips from peeling and overall strength. This seems to be doing the trick! I love the sheer lavender shade. It brightens my nails and it don't chip too easily. My last treatment was applied 5 days and does not have a single chip yet which is remarkable for me because I am always digging in my garden and working in the yard.

I was under the impression this was going to be more of a nude color, and the color itself is very nice. The application and wear is also great. However, it's so shimmery that it looks glittery and bright. I was hoping for something a little more low key -- it makes me feel immature wearing this.**UPDATE**This color has grown on me. It's like the underside of a seashell. It dries relatively quickly and wears well. I'm rebuying.

This takes about 3 minutes to apply two coats and looks gorgeous! No need to mess with base & top coat -- since this is a treatment, you basically just slap it on and it nourishes nails. It's shiny and the natural color looks so polished and professional for work. It's just perfect and I hope I never have to be without it!! Holy grail nail product for me!

This isn't an instant fix. I used for 4-weeks and started to see that my new nail growth was stronger without cracks and splitting. Using CND SolarOil every night was also part of my regimen (thanks to a review). The combination has helped.The colors are lighter than shown on the page. I bought all three and like the light iridescent look with 2 coats, plus a quick dry top coat. I replace every 4 or 5 days. My old routine was base coat, two coats of color, quick dry top coat, so this new Essie treat love & color is much simpler.

I am a software engineer and I have never found a nail polish that doesn't chip same-day because of all the typing. While this polish did chip (after THREE days!) The color is so light that the chipping was not noticeable. I haven't been using long enough to tell if my nails are getting stronger (they peel all the time), but having the polish on consistently is definitely protecting them.

I opted for the Treat me bright colour (clearish), and it's a lovely shimmery colour that I have been wearing as both the only polish and as a base coat for other Essie polishes (i.e. the chalkier colours).As a base coat, it has actually helped prevent some of the normal day-after chipping that some of the flatter Essie colours seem to have; and as a solo polish, it's nice enough and durable enough, that it lasts me all week long.I have even been able to do my camp chores (cutting and burning branches and wood) with minimal chipping of the polish as a solo coat! this doesn't happen often, so it's definitely a bonus feature.My nails seem to be peeling and breaking less, and even the cuticles don't seem as dried out.Overall, it does what is says it does, and it's my new go-to!

Was so impressed by this nail polish. Before trying it, my nails had been super brittle from getting my nails done at the salon and so, I was left with brittle nails that looked completely unappealing bare. And then, enter the Essie Treat Love And Colour Strengthener and from just one application, I was already getting compliments!My nails feel healthier and it is a really good option for those who want to add a little colour to their lives while letting their nails breathe and heal. I will definitely be purchasing again as I can see this easily becoming a staple in my nail polish collection!

This winter was harsh on my nails this year. My nails were already pretty weak and flimsy, but cold weather dried them out pretty badly and they were peeling and unsightly.I love to wear sheer brightening polishes and was afraid a regular polish would just make my nails worse. This is when I seen this polish mentioned on a blog and decided to try it out. I picked Lavender since I figured it would be best at brightening.So far after a few weeks wear, my nails don't really feel any stronger when I remove it, but during wear they feel stronger and it has been protecting my nails so that the peeling parts are growing out. The colour is very sheer and it does a great job of evening out the surface and hiding some imperfections. It makes my nails look brighter and healthier.I love it!

I really liked this product as it helped with keeping my nails looking nice but also feeling strong. I wasn't sure if it would actually live up to my expectations, but my nails did break less when I had the polish on. I also found that the colour lasted for several days and that while sheer, the light reflective lavender colour provided a subtle, iridescent sheen. I would recommend this product if you like to wear polish, but are looking to take a break from the opaque colours. I received this product for testing purposes from Glam Sense.

What is wrong with this review?"Absolutely Love This!I ordered all three shades (I live in a small city so they were not available at any of our stores. Hello Amazon!). So impressed. I like the sheer colour because of the less maintenance and was not disappointed. And to know you're actually trying to nourish your nails and not just colour them, is awesome. No strong odor. I'm hooked!"Sorry Essie, for the positive review. It won't happen again!?!
