I love Deborah Lippmann’s gel lab pro nail polish formulas which is why I decided try this out, but upon first application I noticed the application brush is much thinner than the gel lab pro which makes it harder to apply. Also, this formula isn’t pigmented enough so you need to apply 3 coats for full coverage. Thin brush + 3+coats is a lot of work and time. Also, it takes a really long time to dry. I’ll stick to the gel lab pros next time.
