I love trying new nail polishes, especially in unique colors and finishes. I am in love with the latest ones I tried from Adesse New York. The first one is a Gel Effect Nail Polish in a color called Moon River. It’s a really pretty greyish blue/purple. On me it looked a little more Navy but a very pretty color nonetheless. The company actually describes it as “Smoky, moody, edgy. This deep creamy charcoal will have your nails smoldering.”
This long-wearing nail polish is designed to give your nails the look of a gel manicure without having to use a lamp to cure the polish. It does try to a beautiful glossy finish but I don’t think it quite achieves the gel look.
This polish is unique in that it’s infused with organic bamboo extract, argan and shea oils that will soothe and rejuvenate them rather than damage them. Organic mica, minerals and pigments give Adesse polishes their high-def color and shiny finish that resists scratching and chipping. I was actually surprised at the wear-ability! I was able to go several days without chipping which is really unusual for me without an actual cured gel polish.
Adesse nail polish is 5 Free, Cruelty Free, Paraben Free, Sulfate Free, Petrochemical Free, GMO Free, Triclosan Free, and Vegan.
The second color I tried was Liquid Chrome in Metropolitan. Adesse describes it as a “starry, starry night. This blue galaxy shade gleams with shimmers of purple and silver.” It’s liquid awesomeness in a bottle with layers of organic pigments that are super shiny and light reflective, a truly unique and gorgeous finish in a super pretty color.
The polish goes on easily with a specially designed self-leveling brush that delivers just the right amount of polish each time. I tried this color over Moon River an it was the perfect compliment. It also looks great on it’s own!

Last but not least I tried Alleluia Glitter Nail Polish. Adesse says “Your nails will look like they’ve been kissed by a cool breeze in this sparkly blue and purple.” With a mix of delicate micro-glitter and bold chunky multi-shaped glitter, this polish offers a pretty texture and adds sparkle to your look. This polish works best when you dab it on over the top of another color but can also be worn alone.
I tried all three polishes together with a sort of french tip and accent nail. I think they look good together but next time with probably go for something with more contrast. The polish stayed on quite well but was also easily removed with regular nail polish which I appreciate. I hate it when my nails start to chip but taking it off is a long process like with gel polish.
Overall, I was very happy with Adesse polishes and can’t wait to try some more of their colors! They’ve got an awesome selection! You can find out more at www.adesseny.com.

I love the colors! How long does this polish take to dry?
Holly Duce says
It’s a quick drying formula so it doesn’t take too long to dry, especially if you wait a few minutes between coats.
