Hello
you!
Last
few months I kinda developed an aversion towards pink nail polish. Not pink mind you…but
pink nails. Yesterday while cleaning up my stash, I came across
this. It’s been, I think, almost 1 and a half years that I bought this paint. (During a
phase when all I could wear was pink and the color Fuschia was all
over the place…remember?? )
Product: Lotus Herbals Color Dew Nail Enamel - Fuschia Drop
Price:
Rs.110/- (8ml)
Claim: Natural and Safe; Acetone, DBP and Toluene free; Fast drying; Flat and sturdy brush
I was very surprised that the polish hadn’t dried off first thing. Not even
mucky. You know how polishes turn a bit thick and gooey after a while. Not this
one. The formulation may have turned
a tad bit thicker in so many months. But I’ll admit I’m not too sure since this
is the only Lotus Herbals polish I own. I wonder why though, there are quite
a few shades I loved…peach perfect, a nude one….ooh the lavender one!!

So I
finally felt like going for a bright pink and yes, it managed to woo me all
over again. I love how long the applicator is! It just makes everything so
much easier. It glides on beautifully. No streaks or bumps.
The
first layer itself is opaque enough. A second coat however is required for a flawless
finish.
The
first coat dries in 5 mins which is considerably ok. However the second coat or
a thicker coat takes quite a while to dry off completely.
I, ofcourse,
managed to overdo a layer or two and get a few bubbles ... but that’s typical
me and I completely take the blame for my miserable application skills.

BUT it started chipping a bit on the tips... the next day itself :( So that is
ofcourse a major CON. But a good top coat over it should manage that issue to a
certain extent.
