duriNail Polish, 502 Bridal Bells, Pastel Pink, Classic Pastel Pink, Full Coverage, Fast Drying, 0.45 Fl Oz

LISTING all PROS FIRST, as this was what I was looking for, but please note the ONE caveat at the end.PROS:SEMI-TRANSLUCENT! - I am NOT fond of the WHITE OUT look of many French manicures. Like it's white paint. I wanted something to have a bit of translucency so it looks like my nail tips are just natural, but whiter, THIS IS IT!I JUST use ONE light coat as I want a REALLY natural look. I like the semi transparency. If I want WHITER, I just add another coat.COLOR - AGAIN, it's not a BRIGHT white, so looks more natural. So if you want a WHITE WHITE, like paint, this isn't it. I love how it makes my nails look natural, but BETTER.INGREDIENTS - LOVE it doesn't have the BAD chemicals I DON'T WANT in it!CONSISTENCY - OK here is where it's both a pro and con, the caveat I warned about. IT IS VERY MILKY. It's not thick at all, which is good in a way, easy to apply, but just putting a bit on with my nail held up, it started sliding down from the very tip. BUT SIMPLE. Do your nail and then just hold your hands DOWN for a minute or two and it will set enough to not slide down your nail. TRUST ME. SO WORTH IT! SO FAR, it's lasting VERY WELL and I just put two coats of Revlon's regular clear nail polish over it.LONG-LASTING? - Well, I did just get it, but of course I use a clear top coat and I think THAT is what really determines how long your polish lasts. It's all about the top coat over it.PRICE - RIDICULOUS at some of the prices of a white polish! This was not only very reasonable, BUT I liked it better than the much more expensive ones AND it doesn't have the bad chemicals!AS THIS HAS ALL THE PLUSES I WANTED, the one about just holding hands at your sides for just a few minutes is NOT A BIGGIE! I LOVE the consistency because it IS so milky and translucent and VERY easy to put on.THIS IS MY FAV of ALL the whites for French Manis I have found. LOVE THE LOOK.

Subtle color. Loved that. Would buy again.

Bought this to use for the French tip on a more natural/hyperrealistic looking manicure- it’s perfect! It can also be thinned with alcohol to make it even more natural, I just liked the full coverage of it for this one. Dries quickly, I added a top coat and it has been very durable and has not chipped. Over all it’s very bright and opaque, and is a perfect natural warm beige color. Exactly what I was looking for.

It took several coats for moms nails,but looks nice.Mom and Bill.

Easy to use and appropriate colors for a home french manicure. Nice amount of product. Good brushes.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I chose this nail polish when I listened to the commissioned sales person compliment the item. She said it was her favorite so I decided to try it. I found this nail polish to be thin and watery. It streaks easily and when trying to make a minor correction like getting a bit more polish around the cuticle or correcting a brush stroke, it is unforgiving and will streak and/or cake up. This polish sets up in about three seconds so there is no time to correct or add a brushstroke. Very poor quality and difficult to use. I would choose OPI for best results.

I put a base coat, 2 coats polish then a top coat over. Polish chipped the second day. Disappointing.

Love this polish!
