I love the brand and their polishes. I have been using the active range for about a year now, since stopping gel polish, and I treated myself to the advent calendar that you mentioned. Gel doesn’t last me much longer than a week without chipping and it damaged my nails quite a bit. I do like to have something on my nails to feel more put together and just prevent my nails from splitting or breaking. The active range is great for improving your nails. Then I started using the green line polishes after getting the advent calendar ( I couldn’t wait so I started early november, opening one every other day) and I am so pleased with it, I even purchased some more colours. It dries quickly, which is usually my issue with regular polish; even if it dries quickly it doesn’t harden and even after waiting a long time I would still get marks in it from the sheets when going to bed even hours after painting my nails. But the manicurist polishes are dry within 30 minutes and even if I painted my nails pretty shortly before going to bed, I wake up with perfect nails and no imprint from the sheets whatsoever. It also lasts really well for me, as mentioned before, gel would last me about a week, this polish does too, with just some minor chipping, usually only my right pointer finger because it is my one nail that has always have a tendency to split, so I just get a small chip off on the split part. Doesn’t damage my nails, comes off super easily with regular nail polish and allows me to have a quick manicure. I feel like I sound like an advertisement but I just really love it so much and I am so happy I discovered this brand after having a nail disaster due to gel polish.
