The Story

A glossy top coat designed to lock in colour and nail art with a resilient, gel-effect sheen. Crafted for lasting wear and an intensely reflective finish, it protects against chips while preserving polish vibrancy. Vegan and cruelty-free, this compact 8 ml formula suits a Unisex routine and travel-ready touch-ups without a UV lamp.

Apply as the final step over fully dried colour or nail art. Sweep evenly from cuticle to tip and allow to dry thoroughly. For maximum longevity, reapply every 5–7 days or after wear.

Solvent-based polish film includes ethyl acetate and butyl acetate for smooth application; nitrocellulose and acrylates copolymer form a durable glossy film. Dipropylene glycol dibenzoate enhances flexibility while isopropyl alcohol aids drying. Contains CI 77510 for subtle reflective depth.

At Ellie Jules, every order is prepared with care to ensure it arrives as beautifully as it was chosen. Enjoy complimentary shipping on orders over €100, with secure, reliable delivery across our full range of jewelry, fragrances, skincare, accessories, and home accents.

About Essence

Essence: Pioneers of Accessible Colour Cosmetics

Provenance: Germany

Essence is a German beauty brand known through its broad catalogue of makeup, nail polish, and beauty accessories. The assortment at Ellie Jules reflects a brand positioned firmly in colour cosmetics, with a strong focus on everyday essentials and trend-led updates across lips, eyes, face, and nails.

Its philosophy is built around approachable formulas and a wide product mix, from mascaras and eyeliners to lip liners, powders, blush, and nail art. Among the grounded lines and products, standout names such as All About Matt!, 8H Matte, 3D Plumping, and Lashes to Impress show the brand’s emphasis on practical, effect-driven beauty. Essence also states on its official site that it is not tested on animals.

This matters because essence has become a recognisable name in affordable, contemporary cosmetics, offering breadth without losing clarity of category. In the context of Ellie Jules, it stands as a German colour-cosmetics brand with consistent retail relevance and a clear, modern beauty identity.
