The colour is beautiful, a vivid cobalt blue cream. It dries to a satin/matte finish so if you want a glossy finish, use a topcoat. Eddie reformulated this one I think because mine wasn't terrible to work with. Opaque in two coats, relatively quick to dry, not the dreadful beast of the reviews below. That said, there are many dupes with better formulas: Sinful Colors Endless Blue, Nails Inc Baker Street, Revlon Wild Card, same colour, better formulas and cheaper. This is a nice polish all the same and I intend to keep it and enjoy it for many years to come
