These are nail polishes i had to buy, after i had tried one from my friends nail polish stash. Initially, i had seen this around, and had never been tempted by them. I also used the sally hansen gel nail polishes instead, so didn't really have a reason to try another brand, but i am glad i did.
Firstly these come in an amazing range of colours and i think i have around 5 or 6 shades. The bottles are handy because you can see accurately see the colour of the nail polish. It comes in a circular based bottle, with a smooth black cylinder lid. The brush is pretty good. Its wide enough to cover my nail in a few swipes, so i like it.
My favourite thing about this nail polish is how long lasting it is, even without a top coat it last around 4 days before it starts looks bad. And when it starts looking bad, its not because the nail polish is chipping, but just because it is wearing.
After all these positives, there of course has to be something negative. Some of these shades are amazing, and two coats give amazing coverage. However some colours, such as sorbet need over 5 coats to create a non streaky look. 5 coats is a bit insane, and very time consuming, so this is why this polish 100% amazing
I was a bit dubious that these polishes would live up to salon quality gel but was pleasantly surprised, and I now own nearly half the colour range! ha ha.
I love the double brush for applying the polish, makes it super quick and easy to put on. Took a little practice to get the neat lines that the salons get, but I have got there now and love it. I am not too hard on my hands and found that it lasted a week, with care before chips started to show. I love how glossy the colours are, especially with the top coat.
Tips: I have found the darker colours still stain my nails though due to no separate base coat - be aware this might happen to you. Keep some lemons handy to remove the stains after you remove the polish.
