China Glaze Nail Polish

I was given a gift voucher for the Nail Bar last Christmas but as my nails were so brittle and badly bitten I was too embarrassed to use it for ages as I didn't want false nails I didn't think there was anything they could do for me. Despite trying to grow my nails on several occasions, but eventually succumbing and nibbling them all off again, I finally decided to use my gift voucher in April as I was going out for my birthday and thought it would be a nice treat to have a manicure and polish. The salon I visited used the Platinum Series of nail lacquers known as China Glaze Nail Lacquer, the subject of this opinion, (China Glaze also produce ...  Read the complete review

I got some of this nail polish from Ebay for about five pounds a piece as I was very intrigued having heard so many rave reviews about this stuff. I think you can purchase these at nail salons as these are salon quality and ideal for natural and acrylic nails.

I have to admit i didnt even know of this company until a month ago. I heard that china glaze is the little sister of OPI, a nail company i have used for years. Price/Where to buy: The china glaze polishes are about half the price of OPI and i bought mine from Sallys Beauty Supply in my local town.

I used the china glaze non chip top coat on top and i can honestly say ...  Read the complete review
