Sephora Nail Varnish review

I was on holiday in France and on one of the days I had to stay in the chalet and revise (boo) while my family went shopping. They asked me if there was anything that I wanted and said that I would like a burgundyish (if thats even a word) nail varnish, and this is what they came up with and I thought that i would do a quick review...



Pros

  • It only needed ONE coat!!! The pigment really was amazing!
  • The nail varnish was touch dry within less than 5 minutes
  • The colour is really nice as well
  • They last quite a while without chipping

Cons
  • Although it was touch dry I'm less that 5 minutes it took a lot longer to become fully dry (even 3 hours after painting them I got hair lines in them when I went to bed!)
  • I know it's a really dark colour so I should expect it, but even with a base coat on it still stained my nails a reddish colour :(

Overall though it was a really good product! I can forgive it for staining my nails, that's the price you have to pay for awesome nails! And I can forgive it for taking forever to fully dry, but if I was wearing it for a special occasion I would probably put it on the day before to be on the safe side.

Tuesday Beauty Tip #7

Lately I've been feeling really tired. I think I was stressing over my exams, so as a result I wasn't sleeping as well as usual :( . I've found that this tip has really helped me! It sounds a bit crazy but it actually really helps. In the morning if I'm feeling a  bit tired I fill the bath room sink with cold water then... wait for it... I submerge my face in it! This really helps to waken up myself as well as my face and its really refreshing!

Tuesday Beauty Tip #6

I picked up on this tip a while back when I was searching for a way to speed up my nails drying. After you’ve finished painting your nails, submerge (what a cool word) them in cold water. I’ve found that this tip is not 100% effective, in that I doesn’t dry them completely, however it does speed the drying process.
