NOTW Week 53

 

Hey all, I hopped onto the cookie crumble train really late. I was under the impression that these were only available in pastels and you know how I feel about non-colours. Today I'm wearing this gorgeous turquoise green cookie crumble polish from Kalobio. 

I love this polish. It goes on opaque in a single coat & lasts at least 5 days straight without chipping. It has a standard flat round brush. No complaints. 

For some reason there is no mention of any shade number or name anywhere by the brand (must be one heck of a job to take inventory!) A single 11 ml bottle retails for INR 135 but I bought a set of 6 for INR 500 from Meesho 

NOTW Week 52

 

Hey all, I've been obsessed with textured polishes of late & have picked shade #404 Sparkling Sky Blue from Dirty Shades. It's a gorgeous peacock blue which goes opaque in a single coat, dries in a jiffy & stays put for days. I'm amazed at the lasting power since most textured polishes start chipping in no time. 

The brand claims that it gives a gel effect manicure & dries to a high shine finish (I personally feel it's more on the matte side). It comes with shade lock technology for colour that stays true throughout the life of your manicure (I have to agree, minimal fading even at the end of 5 days). The brush though, has my heart. It comes with a precise 1000 U-cut bristle brush which picks up polish easily and distributes it in a mere 2 swipes. I love brands that take the time to elaborate on their brushes because it has a huge impact on how the polish gets applied. These polishes are 5 toxins free, vegan, cruelty free, paraben free and chemical free. 

A set of 4 10 ml bottle retails for around INR 450 on amazon but I bought it from meesho for INR 380. It's not a vast difference in price but it is something. 

Cheers
