I know it's been awhile, but I have an awesome review for you today about some nail polishes you don't want to miss out on. Sephora will have a new nail polish display, and new nail polishes, coming to stores October 3rd. You can get them online here before they hit stores.
What I am going to be talking about here, is something from the nail treatment, nail polish, and nail effects section.
I believe there is going to be a set called "The System" that is $32. The nail polishes individually are $10.50, the nail effects are $12.50, and nail treatments are $10.50 to $14.

The first thing we are going to talk about is "The System". In the system you receive 4 steps to an expert manicure. Step 1. is to cleanse. This is in the nail treatment section. It claims to prep the nail base by eliminating residue. I'm not sure if this does anything, but I could tell a difference in how my nail felt after putting this step on. It seems like an extra step, but I think it really does help the nail polish adhere better to the nail. Step 2. is to prime. The base coat is a bit stickier than most to ensure the nail lacquer will adhere. Step 3. Is the actual nail polish. Apply one to two coats of it. I got a dark red, and found that one coat was extremely opaque, but chose to do two to ensure that the color was even. The final step is shine. This top coat is pretty glossy, and dries rather quickly.
Overall, I enjoy "The System" the polish has withstood a day of serving, a long few days in a stock room for an RTW and a day of playing with my eventual step-daughter. Clearly it's gone through some rough playtime. It is going on 6 days without chipping, so it's safe to say I'm pretty dag-on impressed.
*All polishes by formula X are paraben free.
The coolest par about this line though is the nail effects. I only have one effect, but I will 100% be purchasing more because of how absolutely awesome this one is. I have one of the Xplosives in "Chaotic". I showed my nails to my boyfriend after I put this on. He told me that if he hadn't had known that this was one coat of polish, that he would have told me I had way too much time on my hands to put that much detail into my nails.
The Xplosives basically look like splattered paint. It seriously looks so neat. I cannot wait to purchase more and check out the other nail effects. I believe Avon, has a similar polish line but I am unsure on the prices and quality of that particular brand.
I would say that if you purchase anything from this line, you have to check out the nail effects and I would also check out the cleanse polish.
If you have used these polishes, let me know what you think about them in the comments below!
