Heylo Everyone, Happy Monday to you all. I’m back from my trip to mommyland and I did nothing but eat, sleep, repeat 😛 much needed relaxing break. And now I’m all set to join my new office 🙂 This made me write today’s post which is about my favorite office wear nail color as well as my all-time favorite nail color 🙂 which is Lakme True Wear Nail Color Freespirit N237 Narendra Kumar.
I have shared my love for pinky nude or muddy pink color whatever you call it in lipsticks and nailcolors and i have already reviewed similar shade silk stockings from maybelline colorshow range here, that one has micro shimmer in it but Lakme True Wear Nail Color Freespirit N237 Narendra Kumar is perfect pinky nude for everyday wear 🙂 I am addicted to it 🙂
Let’s see how I like it:
Price, Quantity & Shelf Life:
100 for 9ml. 36 month shelf-life.
Packaging:
A square glass bottle with shiney beige cap. Brush applicator is perfect for non-steaky application. Thumbs up to packaging.
Consistency & color payoff:
The consistency of Lakme True Wear Nail Color Freespirit N237 Narendra Kumar is just perfect, neither too runny nor too thick. Application is even and steak free.
Color payoff is good in suggested 2 coats. In 1 coat application is even but little sheer. Here is 2 coat NOTD. NOTD here has actual color 🙂 (pink undertones are not visible through bottle)
Performance:
These nailpaints take time to dry. If you are applying 2 coats then in all 4-5 minutes are required for impression free application. I usually restless and don’t wait for so much time but for color as pretty as this one I would let this go 😀
It stays on my nails for 2 days as it is just a little less shine but from third day it starts to rub-off from the tips which is okay as i do household chores as well, But the nailpaint can be wore throughout the week as chipping is not major. Here is a day 4 NOTD :
If topped with top coat it stays put 3-4 days without chipping.
What I like about Lakme True Wear Nail Color Freespirit N237 Narendra Kumar:
- oh so pretty color.
- brush applicator is perfect.
- consistency is nice and it doesn’t change over time.
- nailpaint doesn’t change color over time.
- 2 coats give opaque finish.
- Steak less application
- stays put for 3 days then fades from tips, no major chipping, can survive whole week.
- quantity is a lot for the price.
What I don’t like about Lakme True Wear Nail Color Freespirit N237 Narendra Kumar:
- drying time could have been better.
- more than 2 coats can be messy.
- Shine lasts only a day.
- Not listed on lakme website.
Final verdict: 4.5/5
