Amelia - Jelly Effect 45 Second Speedy Gloss

I timed it on my kitchen clock and it really was dry in under a minute, which saved me before a work call. The jelly effect is surprisingly buildable too—two thin coats gave me that glassy, squishy look without any streaks.

The jelly finish gives my nails this deep, lit-from-within glass look that photos actually pick up on. Clocked the dry time at just under a minute, which meant I could paint my right hand without smudging anything.

I've been chasing that glassy, squishy nail look for months and this is the first polish that actually delivers—the jelly effect is so deep and dimensional in just two coats. And I'm not joking about the 45 seconds, I was tapping my keyboard almost immediately without a single smudge.
