Nail Polish Collection | BYS, Eugene Perma, Florelle, Pronails



We are nearing the end of my nail polish collection and today I have another mix of brands, of which BYS and Florelle can be bought from various drugstores while Pronails is only found on sale from authorised outlets and nail technicians. On the other hand, the Eugene Perma ones were free gifts from my hair dresser for a promotion they had running when a client had their hair coloured (Eugene Perma is actually a salon exclusive hair brand). Here goes:

Review: Florelle Nail Treatments

I had reviewed the other Florelle nail polishes a while back (check it out here) and today, I will be reviewing the nail treatments I have from this brand.  I actually have tried three in all (I think there are one or two more in the range) but I only have two available as I managed to smash my Nail Strengthener to pieces and when I went to buy a replacement, there wasn't any available.  So, instead I got the Base for Brittle & Damaged Nails.  Anyways, on to the review.

This is what they look like:

Very basic packaging there.  Although the base has a pink colour (nail strengthener is a light green), they come out as clear polishes.  What impresses me the most about these polishes is how long they last.  The bases, even when worn alone, last me for more than a week and the top coat offers an excellent glossy finish and preserves a manicure for a maximum of two weeks!!

The consistency of these 'polishes' is somewhere between watery and thick but it is very easy to work with and to top it off, the brush provides a streak-free and mess-free application each time.

I have noticed that my nails have grown stronger on using the bases instead of the other base coat I used previously and so are definitely worth the money... not that they cost much! They retail at around €3.40 (strengthener costs a bit more) for 12ml and can be found at drugstores and supermarkets.

Review: Florelle Nail Polishes

Today I have another nail polish review for you ladies! This time, from Italian brand florelle. I also have a strengthener and a top coat from this brand, but I will review those in separate posts later on.  Here are the four nail polishes I will be reviewing today:

From left to right: Black, Sparkly Silver, White, Matte Red

These nail polishes do not have names, just numbers, but I used these generic names for referral purposes. The black, silver and red belong to the Laque Plus range and their numbers are 36, 51 & 87 respectively. They come in round shaped bottles with a mirror cap and contain 15ml of varnish. The white one, belongs to the Nail Polish range (:S) and its number is 145. Although the bottle is differently shaped and seems a bit taller than the others, it still contains 15ml of polish as well.

Application of these polishes is smooth and they have a fairly liquid consistency but still have a quick drying time. The brush is also easy to work with as it is not too wide and not too thin. The black and the white ones have a creme finish.  The red one has a matte finish and the silver one contains evident flecks of silver glitter, whilst being itself a pearly polish. I think the latter is my favourite one out of these.

Two coats are enough for each of these polishes to achieve a good opaque and even finish. The silver one is versatile enough to be layered on other colours or be worn on its own, enabling gradual building of intensity.

These polishes usually last on my nails for a week with a top coat on. They retail for around €3 each and can be bought from drugstores or beauty shops.

Have you ever tried any nail polishes from florelle? Which are your favourites?
