Nails of the Day with NewU polish French Blue

'Sasta (cheap), Sundar (pretty) and Tikau (value for money/long lasting). These three words best describe the tiny nail polishes found at NewU stores. I know we rave about the Maybelline Colorshow polishes because of their great quality and low price. Well, these ones are cheaper at Rs 50 and I'm yet to come across one that I dislike. Everytime I go to a NewU store, I always check out the bottles placed next to the cashier. They don't have a large range but the ones they do are in some very pretty colors. Picked up 3 some days back and wore one today. The color is a beautiful turquoise and green mix (the camera did not capture the green unfortunately)and the name of the shade is French Blue. Check out these polishes when you are at the store next or you can even buy them from their website (http://www.newu.in). You will not regret getting a few :)




Have you tried the NewU polishes? Do you like them?

Maybelline Color Show Nail Polishes in Kiss-me-Pink & Blackcurrant Pop

I'm sure all of you are aware of Maybelline's latest launch by now. The Color Show range of nail polishes are the rage in the blogging world and I'm joining in to show you two lovely shades. When these polishes came out a couple of weeks back, I honestly did not expect them to be priced at Rs 75 and I give the folks at Maybelline a big hug for keeping them so affordable. On my FB page, a lady commented that she buys them for nearly Rs 300 in the Middle East! And I've heard that they are priced much higher in other countries as well. Just hope Maybelline sticks to this price tag and does not hike it soon. 


The Color Show range has 40 shades though I'm yet to see all the 40 in the stores. I love the colors and more so because they are so vibrant and pretty. Just coz they are priced at Rs 75, don't think they are of an inferior quality. These polishes are super! They go opaque in two coats, dry pretty fast, give a glossy finish and have a decent wear time as well. I did notice that by the 3rd day there was a slight hint of tip wear but there was no chipping. Both shades lasted for nearly five days. 

The shades I'm showing you today are Kiss-Me-Pink, a very bright fuchsia with subtle duo-chrome that reflects a tinge of blue and Blackcurrant Pop, a pretty lavender creme. I've topped them off with Maybelline Colorama polish in Glitter Prata. 



The Maybelline Color Show polishes are totally worth the hype and I can't stop raving about them. I've bought another five of these and will show them to you soon. There is a color for everyone so go pick up a few from a store near you. You won't be disappointed.

On My Nails Today - L'Oreal Paris Color Riche Le Vernis Lush Tangerine

If you love orange, you will love L'Oreal's Lush Tangerine on your nails. Its a bright, rich orange without any shimmer, that goes on really smooth. The color was included in the L'Or Sunset Makeup Collection even though it released quite some time back. I love the flattened brush that comes with the polish as it makes application quite precise and easy to apply. It takes 3 coats to go completely opaque and has a glossy, cream finish. I like that the polish dries up very fast and its been on my nails for three days now and I have not noticed any chipping yet. The price at Rs 235 is expensive but I like the quality of these Color Riche polishes.

Here's how it looks on me..
