L to R: Funtime Fuchsia, Caramel Cupcake, Instyle Coral
This is just a quick post to sing the praises of my new favorite nail polish: Rimmel London 60 Seconds Nail Polish. This line’s “Sweet Lavender” shade was one of Oprah’s 2014 Spring Makeup Awards winners. 🙂 Very nice!
My go-to polish lately has been Caramel Cupcake, which has been a godsend for doing a quick “one and done” manicure. I just apply one coat, and I’m out the door in a minute! The polish truly does dry in 60 seconds, and this shade is a modern nude that I imagine would work with all skin tones.
This photo has no filter, so it shows the true color payoff you get. I did polish on two coats and a clear topcoat, but you can get away with one coat if you’re in a hurry.
The only drawback to these types of polishes is that they tend to chip more quickly. That’s the price that you pay for a speedy manicure, I guess.
PROS:
–Super-fast drying time
–The line offers so many shades, there’s a color for everyone
–Crazy-cheap! I get mine for $1.50 at Walmart, and sometimes you can find a $1-off coupon in the newspaper
CONS:
–They chip quickly
–The bottles are small
–One coat is enough, but it looks infinitely better with two coats (I have that problem with a lot of polishes, though)
