Review: Maybelline New York COLOR SHOW Nail Lacquer


As most of you probably know, I was invited to a lovely Bloggers Meet up and got some great goodies! As promised, I'm reviewing the nail lacquers that I got in those goodies! :D 
Maybelline New York came out with 40 colors in the COLOR SHOW range, and recently came out with the Neon collection to add to that range of colors.

Let's talk about the nail-polish itself. They come in a conveniently small enough tube that's easy to hold, especially when you're apply nailpolish yourself! 
The brush is wide which I really love about these nailpolishes since its really easy to apply and quick too!
What I dont like is that 1 coat isn't enough, that was a bummer for me as I hate applying and re-applying! But it's not that big of a deal. Applying 2 coats gives you perfect coverage and the opaque desired look.
Another plus point about these little colors is that they dry SUPER fast! So all of you who dont have time to apply and wait for it to dry for so many minutes, this literally dries in less than a minute! YEAY!

I got these three lovely wearable shades! All the colors look so yummy! It was so tough to decide which ones I should pick. I ended up getting Electric Pink, Urban Turquoise and Candy Apple! <3


 So this was definitely everyones favourite! I love the bright Neon pink look it has, so eye-catching right? I noticed that the first coat gives a sort of a matte finish, but the second coat leaves it nice and glossy.

The formula for this particular shade, Urban Turquoise, was slightly thinner than the other, so unfortunately I had to apply 3 coats! :( The shade is more of a Teal green than a turquoise, but I love it! 

When it comes to red, I'm really picky! I own about 2-3 shades of red nail polishes and never found the right one. I think I just found myself the perfect red shade! Red is a color I can wear with everything, and throughout the year. Definitely gonna buy this baby once it's finished!



Why I like these nail polish?

- Wide brush, so super easy and quick to apply.
- The formula is of perfect consistency, not too thick or thin.
- It dries in under a minute!
- I love the wide variety of colors you can choose from!
- Only for Rs.350/3 pounds!

Why I didn't like it:

- Unfortunately 1 coat isn't enough :( However 2 coats did the trick! :)

I hope you like my review! If you have used these nail polishes do let me know what you think by dropping in a comment below!

This range of colors is easily available at all the big stores where they supply Maybelline, so go give them out a try as they are pocket friendly!

Until next time :)
