Hi All,

Today I am going to share with you top six nail-polishes that are appropriate for the spring-season!
I love spring season,it's a transition period between cold winters and hot summers.
I love nail-paints and that's why I thought of sharing with you my top six picks that I have been enjoying thoroughly this season!

Let's get started! But,don't forget to check out the swatches at the end of the post.

My picks are the shades from pink,lavender,green,blue & grey families.If you love nail-paints like me,then read on to know more.

                                         
                                In Pic - Clockwise order:13,Essence; FC14,Flormar; GR13;
E7311,Wet N Wild; 114,Catrice & 921,Eveline Cosmetics

My first pick is a mauvy-pink nail paint by Essence Cosmetics.Essence is a cruelty-free brand.
Pink is the colour all girls love and so do I.I love pink nail-paints be it mauvy,fuschia,baby pink ,coral pink!This nail-polish by Essence is a soft mauvy-pink shade which is apt for the spring season and would suit all the skin tones.This is a lovely shade and you will instantly fall in love with it.I assure you that.Love it.                                                     

Shade-name: 13,Forgive Me,The Gel Nail Polish Collection
Price: AED 7 / INR 199
Quantity: 0.27 fl oz/ 8ml


Second shade is a lavender shade from Flormar Cosmetics,Turkey. Flormar is an affordable makeup and body-care brand.This lavender shade is very feminine and not over the top.It is soft and classy!
                                        

Shade-name: FC14, Lavender Relaxation,Full Color Nail Enamel Collection
Price: AED 12
Quantity: 0.27 fl oz/ 8ml

Third shade is a pista-green coloured nail paint from Missha Cosmetics,Korea.
I love Missha as ir is a cruelty-free and they have a huge variety of products available.From skin-care to makeup they have it all.Korean skin-care are popular across the globe.
Coming to the shade,it's a very nice pista-green/grass-green shade that will suit mostly all the skin tones.                                                                    
                                       

Shade-name: GR13,Lucid Nail Polish Collection
Price: AED 36
Quantity: 8ml

Fourth shade is  my absolute favourite and is truely nature-inspired.It's a pure pastel-green
or mint green shade from Wet N Wild Cosmetics.Wet N Wild is a famous cosmetics brand and all the products are affordable.It's a drugstore brand which has many products that are much better than any high-end brand.True.

                                          

Shade-name: E7311, Pretty Peas,1 Step Wonder Gel Nail Color Collection
Price: AED 18
Quantity: 0.24 fl oz/ 7ml
This shade is very light and it gives a cool look when paired with any floral dress.
This shade gives such a calm and soothing effect to eyes.Love this shade and it's really apt for the spring-season.

Fifth shade is a blue shade from Catrice cosmetics.Again,this is a very affordable,drugstore brand.It has some amazing products that you should check-out e.g.  it's single eyeshadows etc.


It's a sky-blue shade.It is very different than a pastel-blue and a normal-blue shade.I love this shade because it looks so different.If you don't like deep blues and pastel blues than you can try this shade out.
Shade-name: 114, The Sky So Fly,Ultimate Nail Lacquer Collection
Price: AED 13
Quantity: 0.33 fl oz/ 10ml


In the spring-season,mostly pastel shades look good(experts say so).and that's my last pick.It's a pastel cement-grey shade from Eveline Cosmetics.Eveline Cosmetics is a European brand.It is very much affordable.I like their nail-enamels apart from the lipsticks.
The shade is a grey-shade that simply looks amazing.You can top it up with a matte top coat or wear it as it is.It will look good in both ways.
                                           

Shade-name: 921,Colour Instant Collection
Price: AED 25
Quantity: 0.42 fl oz/ 12ml

Swatches:

Packaging:
  • I love the packaging of Nykaa nail-enamel collections, in general.
  • The nail polish comes a frosted acrylic bottle
  • The cap is kind of matte black
  • Sleek packaging
  • Shade name & number are mentioned on the packaging
  • Warning is mentioned on the back of the bottle
  • Also,at the bottom of the packaging the manufacture & product-expiry details are mentioned,which is really great!
  • Travel-friendly packaging
                                         
                       In Pic : Shown the shade name & number of the nail-polish
                                                 on the packaging(side-ways)

Formula & Texture:
  • The formula is too good.It's not runny 
  • Has a medium coverage type of a consistency at one go
  • We need to apply the product at least twice to get that even-looking polish and opacity
  • Smooth application
  • Rich(full) colour payoff in two-three coats
  • We get kind of a sheer-finish in a single coat
  • Once applied, dries out quickly
  • Dries down to a complete matte finish

Effective/Worth?
Yes
  • Stayed on the nails straight for five days and I observed that it had lost it's matte-effect on the fourth day from the day of application.
  • Didn't chip-off ,I had removed it after five days using a nail-polish remover
  • Easy to remove
  • It is a great nail polish especially when we are on a budget
  • It's worth every single penny as it has no harmful elements in it and is of a really good quality!
  • We are getting a lot(9 ml) of a product in INR 199,which is really cool in my opinion:)
  • Plus there are eight shades which are different from one another...that's awesome
Con:
Nothing at all

Will I re-purchase?
Yes,definitely.I want to try other shades from the collection.

Overall,I am in love with the shade that I have picked this time.I highly recommend that you check out the shades from the Nykaa's Nude Matte Nail Enamel Collection.They have some amazing shades to offer that too at a very reasonable price!
