Nail Polish Review: Gellen 120 Color Favor's Soak Off Nail Gel

 Nail polish: Gellen Color Favor's Nail Gel in 120

What the brush looks like:
My nails with 2 coats of polish, all nails have Beetles Gel Polish Top Coat Top Gel on:
Availability: It appears as though this has been discontinued.
Would I buy this?: No.

Notes: I'd describe the color as being a creamy mauve-y, chocolate milk shade that's a bit pink under certain lighting. This is a bit brownish for my personal taste so I won't be holding onto it. I do love how opaque it is and how easily it went on! This cures a bit tacky until cured with the topcoat on.  On the nails, this wore for a week and a half prior to noticeable peeling occurring. 

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

June 2025 Departures

Ok folksickles. Departure blogs will contain items that aren't empties but that are going to be given away for one reason or another. I'm working hard to curate my makeup collection and want it to include only the products that I think truly work well, that I reach for often and do what they're supposed to do.


1. Makeup Revolution London Jewel Collection Deluxe Palette: I have to say that I really enjoyed my time with this palette - I think the color selection and the quality in here is great. However, I just know that I have these same shades in other palettes that I'm more likely to reach for. Hence I'll be passing it along.

2. Arte Clavo Color Gel in 4070: While this is a fun, pretty yellowy orange that's great for the summertime, I will be passing it along because even with three coats of polish, it was too sheer for my liking. 

3. Gellen Soak Off Nail Gel in 120: This gel polish did have the opacity I was looking for, and in fact I only needed to use two coats to get it there. But that said, the shade is a bit too brown for my liking and reminds me too much of chocolate milk. It's just not my favorite and I'll be passing it along to my bestie who likes colors like this. 

Disclaimer: The gel polish was gifted to me by a friend. I purchased the palette myself.  All opinions are my own.
