26 Beige elegant - Sheer but user-friendly

I bought this just so I could pick up the free gift at Priceline, I hadn't used Bourjois nail polish before, and I'm very happy with it! I have 26 beige elegant which is a very pale peachy cream, being so pale it is quite sheer, but i find application is a dream - normally I hate sheer shades as they tend to be insanely streaky, but this applies evenly and dries fast to a high shine. I plan to buy more in this range now!

Take it or leave it? - Leave it!

Considering the price and other nail polishes you can get a lot cheaper with comparable or better results this stuff just doesn't do it for me.

The brush is ok, not too thin or thick, and on applying it can look streaky but the formula of the polish smooths out after a short time.

The polish takes way too long to dry, it can be dry to a gentle touch within about a minute but if you bump your nail on something expect dents and nicks in the polish.

With colours Noir De Chine (30) and Beige Elegant (26), you will need 2 coats minimum, while the colours are opaque you will not get a satisfactory rich, even colour with only one coat and I find with the lighter colour I need to apply 3 coats, even though the streaking from application smooths out after time you can notice a slightly patchy look to the application in bright light even with skilled, careful application.

As for lasting 7 days.. No, I'm sorry, but it does not. Maybe if you don't use your hands for anything other than being a fashion accessory you will get a weeks wear out of them. If you get your hands wet for an extended period, even in the shower washing your hair you will get lifting at the ends and corners which will lead to peeling of the polish regardless of base or top coats.

They do have a decent shine but not as nice as what a good top coat can give you and I feel a top coat is required for a slight increase in longevity.

The bottles are very pretty, The lids match the colours very well so finding the particular one you want is easy and it's the only reason this product is getting 2 stars.

If you are a perfectionist like me you won't be happy with this polish and I wouldn't bother purchasing again.

Great shine and staying power.

I have this product in 06 Rose Vamp (a lighter barbie hot pink) and 08 Prune Vinyl ( a plum purple). I love these colours. They are very opaque which I look for in a nailpolish and the finishes are really glossy. Bourjois dont have the biggest range in nailpolish, but what they do have is exceptional. The product is 10mL bottle that is super easy to apply and the product colour is easily identifiable in your nailpolish draw because the lid is perfectly colour matched to the product so no need for the "lift and check" to find the right colour amidst all those black lids. The colour has serious staying power and lasts for days without chipping. Overall, a great product! Use a glossy top coat to amp up the vinyl look!

Rouge Diva

This is a really good nail polish for its price, and I love all the names of the polishes! I thought it took quite a long time to dry though, and on my left hand, I didn't leave it long enough between first and second coats so it ended up a bit streaky, still a good nail polish though.

Great Nail Polish

This is a re-review for the Glosscars. I only reviewed this not long ago but it is definately worth reviewing again. I really like the shape of this bottle, it's cute. I have this in a really deep burgundy colour and once applied, it looks amazing. My nails look glossy and gorgeous and I can go on average 6-8 days without chipping. And if you're like me and have to watch the budget, then this is a guilt-free purchase.

Perfect Nails

I love my nail polishes and especially if I can pick up a good deal with one. I dread forking out $20+ for a nail polish. This line is amazing value. They have a variety of colours to choose from. The colour goes on smoothly and dries to a super shiny finish, so pretty. I found this lasted quite a while on my nails too before they began chipping. I think it's an average of 8 days I get out of it and that's excellent considering what I do to my hands and nails everyday.

Beautiful Vibrant Colours

These are my favourite Nail Polishes - I own so many colours! They are vibrant, smooth to apply, and I hardly ever have to repaint my toenails! I love the shine and that two coats is plenty! The clear topcoat is also a winner, and has replaced my more expensive brands as the one I'm always reaching for :)

so-so

i have this one in the Tangerine Fatal... and im not actually too impressed with it...
its really runny and because of this its really hard to have a steady hand and not get it all over ur skin...
it dries okay and didnt chip straight away so i really liked that... it lasts about 3 full days then starts to come away... and it doesnt chip like a normal polish, it kind of peels away and if u scratch it away it comes right....
but i will give it a second chance but i cant see it getting much better ....

Super shiny :)

I find this review hard to write as i have mixed feelings on this nailpolish. I bought it in two diff shades, the colours of both look great. One nailpolish applies really well, is very hard with a perfect shiny finish. It stays on really well and is quite chip resistant. However the other shade I bought always looks terrible! its not that colour that is the problem, the problem is it very streaky and uneven. It seems to be the brush does not apply it well though with the other colour I bought the brush is good. After using the first shade I have I loved this polish and would highly reccomend it though the second colour I have has majorly disappointed me and turned me away. For the price I wouldn't want to be having to take a chance it will be a really great polish or a terrible one.

Job done!

Everything a nail polish is supposed to do. Perfect brush dispenses right amount and the product dries perfect. But the hardest thing with finding the prefect product is that the shades a really bad. But not with this range, these colours are wearable and gorgeous for day.
