Bourjois Nail Varnish

A few months ago I had a voucher for £2 off any item in the Bourjois range. Up until then, the only other Bourjois product I had tried was their Maxi Frange mascara, which was quite good, but this time I decided to try one of their nail varnishes. Bourjois make two different varnishes – Very Vernis, which is a standard nail enamel, and So Lacque, which is like a thick lacquer. I chose a bottle of the Very Vernis in a baby pink colour called ‘Rose romantique.’ ~Packaging~ I’ll start from the outside in and tell you about the bottle. The varnish comes in a clear glass bottle, through which you can see the product and it holds 10ml (0.3Fl Oz) of ...  Read the complete review

Whilst I don't usually wear the stuff, nail varnish is sometimes necessary. I have been on an eternal quest for a nail varnish that will stay on my nails at least until I get to the event I have painted my nails for! Well, I just thought you should know that I have finally found what I have been looking for, in the form of Bourjois anti choc nail varnish. A few months ago, I decided that I needed to paint my nails, and that I wanted a new colour of varnish. Having spent about 1/2 an hour in Galleries Lafayette (Nantes, France), trying on various colours, I finally settled on a very subtle pearly blue in the bourjois anti-choc. The whole range of coulours ...  Read the complete review

I bought this purely because I thought the bottle looked lush, it is so streamline and trendy I just had to have it. As I paid so much money for it, I thought I'd see how good it was and I was bitterly dissappointed! It went on in a really thick layer, which is usually good because then you only do one coat, but this was too thick that it went all lumpy and went funny when it dried (which took ages!). Then it all started to peel off just because I opened a can of drink! I'm sorry but you have to do something with your hands sometime, and manufactururs should take this into consideration, what do they expect you to do? Sit there with your nails in protective ...  Read the complete review

I have Bourjois So Laque! nail polish in the colour 'Beige Glamour'. I brought this product from Superdrug in Wallington a few weeks ago for £4.95 and you get 10 mls of the polish for your money. I brought this as i loved the look of the packing and the colour of the polish, the bottles are long and thin and the nail polish colour matches the bottle lid. The nail polish itself is quite thin in consistancy, which means you do need a minimum of three coats to get good coverage. The polish does however dry quite quickly, even with three coats, and dries to a nice shine. As with most nail polishes there is a strong smell when ...  Read the complete review

The best bit about this nail polish is the colours!! I recomend "cosmos bleu" or "violet paillettes" they both have gorgeous little sparkly bits in them! although these seem to show up more when its wet! It is a bit gloopy but I found if you use two thin coats it looks much better (diluting with a tiny bit of nail polish remover works) It is more expensive than most high street brands (about £4-£5 I think) but its worth it if you want to treat yourself! It does take a while to dry but I think that the end result is worth it. Its quite long lasting just as long as you dont use your hands too much and didnt seem to chip much at all. ...  Read the complete review
