I had just casually gone to a small retail shop to
accompany my mom 3 days back and when I saw these new nail polishes laying in a
small stack there, my eyes literally popped out and the Sales lady there could
see me flashing all my teeth out, with the curve of my smile going as high as I
could afford. I bet she had a mini heart attack! (New launches come in
extremely late in North region!)
I picked up three of these and I only spotted 7-8
shades there. I am so glad the names are perky and cute!
“Kiss
me Pink” is a magenta pink shade with purple hue. It looks so
lovely. I wish it could call it duochrome but I don’t think it is. It goes
opaque in two coats.
“Wine
and Dine” is a beautiful duochrome nail polish. It’s a
blackened brown base with bronze flicks. I am calling it duochrome because
under the sunlight, it gives a golden shimmery effect at an angle. It’s sheer in first coat and gets opaque in
three coats.
The swatches you see are after 3 days of their
application, without any top coat. Their dry time is average. Don’t expect
super fast speed. The brush is a little broad which is to my liking.
Comparing
these to Elle 18 nail pops,
Elle 18 nail pops come for Rs.50 for 5ml whereas
these come for Rs.75 for 6ml. Both the packagings are cute but the main
difference is that Elle 18 nail pops mostly stain. I didn’t see them doing
that. Although, I do find the quantity less where the formula is sheer.
But I’m looking forward to trying more shades.
