This is my first time using a Cuccio polish. This gave me a surprise as I thought it was going to be matte when putting on the first coat. To me it kind of has that plastic like feeling but the color is what I was after! I did not want any rose, peach, or anything other than bright barbie or bubble gum pink polish this is perfect! I just put it on so I can't say how long it will last but with the top coat I use I normally get a week at the least! For me the formula was very nice to work with as I took my time. My next pink will be one with the blue under tones! My faves for the summer time! I highly recommend this for a beautiful neon pink!!
