Life can be so boring and monotonous without colors. Ok! Don’t
get alarmed about me jabbering on any philosophy related to colors and life. I certainly
have no intentions to bore you with my mindless babblings. It’s just that I've
always felt a bit happier whenever I am surrounded with nice and lovely colors.
My first love for cosmetics started with nail lacquers, and no matter how many
nail polishes I buy, I can never have enough. Since, we use our hands the most
in our day-to-day work, whether its office or home, it always gives an extra
kick of good energy, whenever I see my nails lovingly adorned with nice nail
polishes.
I've been lately a lot into deep and gothic colors like
black, deep blue, blood red, fiery red, deep green, and grey etc., so when I
tried this particular shade from Diana of London, I somehow felt my nails and
hands becoming quite light. There is a nice airy, springy feeling to this shade
and I am loving it a lot. Check out more details below:

My experience with
this nail polish
The shade Jasmine 48 from Diana of London is a gorgeous
pinky-peach nude shade that literally brought a whiff of fresh and cool change to my otherwise
gothic nail polish routine. The nail polish bottle is a bit longer than the
usual ones we get, thereby sporting a bit longer wand as well. The consistency
of the nail polish is a pretty ok, and you can easily control the amount you
want to take on the brush. The shade is somewhat opaque and gives a lovely peachy
pink shade along with glossy finish in one coat. However, to get fully opaque
effect, you need to apply two coats.
The good thing about this nail polish is that it didn't chip
at all, even after 4 days of wearing. However, it did start fading slightly from
the tips of my nails as the days progressed, which I believe may be because of
my nail growth along with the usual wear and tear. The best thing about this
nail polish is that it is free of Toulene, DBP and Camphor. Also, it doesn't
take ages to dry. One coat takes just 1-2 minutes to get dried completely.
So on that note let
us have a quick look at likes and dislikes of this nail polish
Likes
1) I love the peachy-pink nude shade of the nail polish. It makes
my hands look nice, fresh and soft! :)
2) The long wand gives better control on the application.
3) The consistency is apt enough to help you apply the
polish evenly on the nails.
4) It is free of Toulene, DBP and Camphor
5) Takes hardly 1-2 minutes to get dried up completely.
6) The shade is quite opaque and gives nice glossy finish on
the nails.
7) It claims to contain Vitamin E.
8) You get a lot of quantity for a nominal price, and since
it is chip resistant, free of toulene and stays on my nails for 4-5 days
decently, I find it very affordable for the quality.
Dislikes:
The brush that comes in this nail polish is a bit thinner
than the usual brushes I've used so far. I need to be careful while applying
the nail polish, since it might cause streaky lines to appear on the nails.
Overall: I like
this shade and the nail polish a lot. I'd definitely love to try more shades
from the brand going forward.
Rating: 4.5/5 (A)
