Spellbound is a murky grey green with a gold shimmer. I was on the fence about getting this color because it’s so murky but finally caved and got a bottle. The color turned out to be surprisingly flattering and subtle. The gold shimmer is very visible on the nail despite the cream formula.
On the nail it was almost opaque in one coat and easily opaque in two coats. I found that the formula was easy to work with not super runny or thick. The dry time was average. This has the wider rounded brush which is really easy to use.

Spellbound is from Essie’s recent Enchanted Collection. It is a light moss green (I think in some lights it looks gray.) with lots of gold shimmer. Online this is classified as a metallic. In my opinion it is absolutely beautiful.
This is the first time I have used a polish from Essie’s Gel Couture line. I must say that I am impressed with the formula, ease of application and the wide brush.
The formula was perfect and that was a nice surprise. In my experience Essie formulas can be really good and others are thin and difficult to apply. Spellbound was just right, not too thick or too thin. There was no running or pooling. The texture was really smooth and creamy. It applied evenly with no patchy spots. On my short nails it was opaque with one thicker coat but I did add two coats. With the 2nd coat the color deepened and the shimmer stood out even more. It just looked much richer.
I loved the brush. It was nice and wide which made application a snap. The brush held just the right amount of polish. Typically Essie brushes are quite small so this was a nice surprise.
I did mark the packaging down a lippie though because I do not like the bottle design on the Gel Couture because it makes storage difficult as it is an odd shape, though I do think that the bottles look cute.
I paid around $9 for this polish, less than standard retail because I purchased Spellbound online. I would definitely repurchase this one as I love the formula and the brush. Ease of application was great too.
I will update in a few days or wear, removal and staining. It should be noted that I used my regular base coat (CND Stickey) and my regular top coat (SH Insta Dri in the red bottle) with this polish.
UPDATE: 02/27/2018 – Great wear. Removed today because I wanted a color change, but there were no chips or cracks. Removal was easy & there was no staining.
