Nail Polish

[KamenKutak]

which nail color will last for at least 2 or 3 days?? every time i put on some color, it will be ruin within one day...

 

[Belowen]

has anyone tried the OPI Alice in Wonderland polish set?

I have 'off with her red' it's a nice bright bricky sort of red colour...

KamenKutak are you using a base and top coat?

 

[KamenKutak]

yes, but still...

could you recommend a brand for long lasting?

 

[Belowen]

My favourite polish is by Mecca Cosmetica, which is an Australian company that probably isn't going to be available... Second favourite is definitely OPI - have you tried their polish before?

 

[KamenKutak]

i think OPI isn't available in germany... what do you think about "essie"? i think i'm going to try this...

 

[Belowen]

I've not tried Essie before but I know a lot of tFS'ers use that brand and it's one of the top brands available I think...

I've tried Essie and I like them. I'm very new at using nail polish but I got Essie to last 3 - 4 days before it started chipping.

You could also try Alessandro, I use their base coat and it's good. And it's def. available in germany because i bought it there

About Chanel polishes coming out uneven, I'm pretty sure it's the brush. It's rather thin and if you could take another brush (I don't know about many, but I really like OPI's), even Essie's works fine, the application is smoother.

OPI lasts around 5 days for me, without a topcoat. It also depends on the polish though. My Private Jet has terrible formula IMO - it chips so fast and takes centuries to dry.
Not sure about Essie, I'm wearing them right now, but I have OPI topcoat over it (which can make the polish last up to two weeks!)
Essie formula seems to be nice and consistent though!

I still prefer OPI over Essie though, just because the OPI brush is larger and thinner. It only takes three brushes to cover my thumb with an OPI brush. It takes about 5+ to do it with Essie. and Chanel. But then again, my nails are very large...

^YUMMMMMY! I've been dying for a color like that since forever. Love it!

 

[katherine]

Omggg. That is a beautiful buttery yellow! I've been looking for a color like that forever! Do you know how much a China Glaze bottle is? I've never bought them before.

 

[Miwi]

Thank you all! I'm glad you like it, girls on our forums are not that thrilled.
Here they cost around 7€, but they're only available online (as far as I know). I bought it from a girl from one forum and I also paid 7€.

^Hehehe, Isa, you should start a nail polish blog. You always have such unique shades on your nails

 

[Miwi]

^^Ohh, you're so sweet! Since I don't use much other make-up, nail polishes are my passion (though I've reduced my collection on a half, because I only wear- more or less- the same shades). Nah, blogs are not really my thingy, I just like to check few of them from time to time.

 

[McClaire]

I'm not into yellow but that changed my mind. Such a great color.

 

[Selenitta]

That yellow is REALLY pretty! I'm in love
