I have been on the search for a good nail polish that will last me 10-14 days. Now, I know there is some here and there to be expected, for example, usually the tips of my nails wear down before the rest from touching and grabbing things, but I wanted something that wasn’t going to peel away and chip bad after a few days.
I have been a fan of Sinful Color nail polish for years now, so when I saw this Sinful Shine with Gel Tech polish, I HAD to give it a try! I got mine at my local Walgreens, but I think Walmart also carries it, and Amazon of course. I have even found the regular Sinful Color at Big Lots a few times, so maybe the gel one can be found there too.
Besides lasting, two other things I like about this nail polish, is that it is a gel alternative that does not require a light, AND it’s easily removed with nail polish remover.
For this post, I have used the Sinful Colors Professional Base Coat, followed by Sinful Colors Sinful Shine with Gel Tech in the Alfresco [Blue]colorways, and finished off with the Sinful Colors Sinful Shine Top Coat.
Day 1.
Day 8. You can see where my nails have grown out, and a little bit off the tips, as expected, but other than that, still excellent!
Day 11. My middle finger on my left hand chipped a little…
Day 12. Time to change the polish now! THOUGH, other than this middle finger, all my other fingers are still in the same condition as Day 8, other than growing out a little more, which is still excellent!
Pull out your normal nail polish remover and cotton ball, and watch it easily come off!
One thing I wanted to add before I leave you… I have used this polish on my toes as well, and when it comes to my toes, I am not as diligent about changing the polish out – it might stay on there 3 or 4 weeks before I change it. This polish looses it’s color over a longer period of time, and I am not sure why, but by the end, the polish on my toes was pretty much white. Do with that what you will.
There you have it! A gel-like polish that lasts 10-14(ish) days that does not involve a light, AND is easily removed with nail polish remover. Polish recommended!

wow, beautiful colour! i love nail polish with gel… unfortunatelly i live in italy 🙁
Oh no! I just doubled checked if it was something I could send to you, but nail polish is prohibited to ship internationally. :'( Maybe if you guys have Sally Hansen brand? They recently came out with Miracle Gel, and that one another great option.
I love this color, it reminds me of summer and these days of cold and rain, I need all reminders I can get.
Thank you for sharing at The Really Crafty Link Party. Pinned.
It is a fun, bright, summer color! Not sure where you are, but here in Florida, we are having some really beautiful weather right now.
awesome! I have issues with nailpolish coming off my nails in 2 days because I have to wash so much! This lasting for 10 plus days means I can probably get a good 5-7 days out of it. I’lll have to look for this brand next time I go shopping.
Another really good one is Sally Hansen’s Miracle Gel – I plan to share a review of that one too. I like the Miracle Gel a little more than the Sinful Shine, but it’s also double the price.
