The Story

An expert finishing coat that elevates any manicure with a salon-quality, gel-like shine. Designed for fast drying and durable wear, this top coat protects color while resisting chips and dulling. The result is a pristine, glossy finish that preserves the integrity of your manicure—effortlessly lending a polished, professional look that lasts through everyday life.

After applying color, sweep one even layer of top coat from base to tip. Allow to dry fully. For extended wear, reapply every few days or seal the free edge with a second thin coat.

Formulated for quick-drying, glossy performance with durable polymers that create a resilient, chip-resistant film. Lightweight resins deliver high shine without thick build-up, while the balanced solvent system ensures smooth leveling for a flawless, professional finish.

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.

Should you wish to return an item, we offer hassle-free 30-day returns on eligible purchases. Our dedicated customer care team is always here to guide you with warmth and discretion, ensuring your experience with Ellie Jules is as seamless as the pieces we curate.

About Essie

Essie: Pioneers of Nail Color

Provenance: United States

Founded in the United States, Essie has built its reputation around manicure-focused color and care, with a catalogue centered on nail polish, nail treatments, and related prep and finish products. The brand’s assortment also reflects its broader presence in beauty, but its identity remains most closely tied to nails.

Essie’s color philosophy emphasizes wearable shades, trend-led seasonal releases, and finishes that span classic crème, sheer, gel-style, and quick-dry formulas. Its established lines, including Gel Couture and Expressie, show a clear focus on at-home manicure performance alongside editorial color selection.

Among its most recognisable offerings is Essie Original Nail Polish, the product family that established the brand’s name in professional and consumer nail care. As a long-standing authority in nail color, Essie remains significant for its breadth of shades, consistent formulation approach, and enduring presence in the manicure category.
