To clarify if anyone had same questions as me, this is NOT gel! I find it super confusing that it comes in the opaque bottle, but it is regular stamping polish. Works well, looks very pretty on its own, which I appreciate. It just stamps a bit lighter than I expected but I actually like the result, that's the only reason for 4 stars and not 5, because it looks more like a bit more sheer than it was supposed to be, specially when I use it on it own rather than stamping.
