Nailed It + Review: Color Trends Nail Polish in Raspberry Sherbet

I love all shades of pink; I'm that kind of girly girl. I usually gravitate towards the neon types (Candy Yum Yum? Nylon?), but pinky corals has a soft spot in my heart.

Color Trends Nail Polish in Raspberry Sherbet reminds me so much of MAC Impassioned. It's a pink salmon-like (coral in other words) color that just screams summer and spring. This is the first shade that I got from this brand.

Compared to OMG, I find this a little more mistake-proof. The formula is a little more thin, diluted, which makes the brush to get just enough amount of product whenever you dip it in the bottle. I have better control on how much I'm applying on my nails. I almost didn't have to cleanup anything, which is new! But.. What's the catch when you're working with a thinner formula? You'll need more coats to achieve the perfect opacity. I had to apply at least 3-4 coats (instead of 2-3) to get an even, opaque coverage. But then again, how can I complain with the price? :) It didn't leave a yellow stain on my nails nor made it brittle. It smells of typical nail polishes, so it shouldn't be bothersome to you.

Color Trends is from the makers of the Chic Nail Polish. :)

    1. I think that's the typical number of coats talaga para opaque. Medyo time consuming but with the price okay na din :)
