Great color
-03.29.13
I had searched everywhere for a good green color. This is wonderful. I think it looks good on all skin tones. And it lasted about a week. This is a keeper.

Very Disappointing
-03.26.13
Quick Take: disappointing, not at all as claimed
The color was the most disappointing--not at all an emerald green--has too much blue in it making it more of a teal green. It did chip easily and didn't cover well as others have noted. This company has lost credibility with this one.

Lovely color, but..
-03.26.13
Quick Take: colorful, streaky
I have to do more that 2 coats to get it to evenly color my nails. When I first got it, I did my usual base coat, then 2 color coats, but it came out streaked. Perhaps the same color in a different brand would work out better..

Pretty
-03.25.13
The color really is beautiful! Works very well on dark skin tones. I would not call it chip resistant; my manicure chipped the very next day. However, the color does blend, coat and dry well, so touch ups are no problem! Worth it!

pretty in the bottle, a little bright on the nails
-03.25.13
I love green and the color emerald, and so when I saw this nail polish I picked it up with little thought, as I do tend to wear slightly bright colors come spring. BUT when I put the polish on this week, after looking forward to it for quite some time, it was ... very bright jade, almost a greenish turquoise. Which wasn't what I was expecting. It's also a little thin; I did three generous coats and I could still see through it in places.
I am keeping it, as it's a nice color to mix with black for a pop of color, but it isn't a color I'll be wearing on its own anytime soon. I actually took all the polish off after a few days, and now have on a dark, dark purple instead thanks to brightness overload.

Quick Take: great, long-lasting
This was the perfect accessory for St. Patrick's Day! The color is beautiful and application is flawless. It still looks freshly applied after more than a week.

Awesome!
-03.25.13
It's a good consistency so it goes on nice with 2coats and it is a good color and is good with chipping. It is strong. I love it for spring and summer. It's a fun color :)

Extreme lasting but teal not emerald
-03.25.13
Quick Take: long lasting, pretty, one coat
I bought this because it was Emerald and St Patricks day was coming up. When it arrived, it is nowhere near emerald. It is very teal. I liked the color anyway so I kept it and tried it. It lasted over 2 weeks with very little wear on the tips. I couldn't believe it! I work two jobs and usually even the best polishes rub off within a few days. I was very impressed and have been telling everyone about it. Just be careful of the hue. It's definitely not the true green I was hoping for but still very pretty.

Worst brand of polish

The color was nice. This is the worst polish. It does not apply correctly and it peels easily.

It's Okay...
-03.25.13
Quick Take: long wearing
The color itself is good. It has good consistency and lasts a long time.
The only bad thing that led me to return it was that it stains your nail YELLOW. I even put a base coat and it faintly stained my nail yellow. I would not reccommend this product.

blue pigment separating

Has anyone else noticed small blue flecks of pigment in the polish? It looks fantastic on, I love the color, but mine is rather speckled.

Long-lasting intense color
-03.24.13
Quick Take: long-wearing, rich, intense, on-trend
I have intermittent luck with nail polishes of all kinds, in terms of lasting wear. This Emerald Patone/Sephora polish lasts quite a long time with a clear base coat, 2 coats of color, and a clear top coat to finish. I find that 2 color coats are necessary to get good coverage. The Emerald color is rich and right on trend. Well worth the money for a gorgeous long-lasting manicure done at home.

Gorgeous Color!
-03.24.13
I was in the store and debated between this color and the set of 3 smaller similar colors, but chose this because it lacked all the glitter. It looks gorgeous on, and best yet with a base and top coat went 3 full days without chipping! I received so many compliments on the color, it looks almost kelly green with this teal undertone to it once it dries.

I really like the color a lot, but once you put on a couple of coats, it looks more blue than green. Also, it does chip like crazy and is really hard to completely take off.
