The two colors I got were Renegade, a sea green, and Moxie, a pink; they're both cremes. They arrived packaged in plastic "pillows".
I tried Moxie first. The formula was a tiny bit runny; I needed three coats for full coverage. It was plenty shiny even without topcoat.
I used three coats of Renegade, but could probably have stopped at two, as it was a bit better behaved than Moxie.
Even though I am probably in the target market for these, being older than your average nail blogger, the anti-aging benefits are not a big selling point for me, since I crave variety and don't use any one brand of color consistently enough to allow the ingredients to work. An anti-aging treatment base, sure, I'd use that, especially if it'd help my peelies.

That's a really pretty pink!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I've ever seen a polish marketed as anti-ageing before!
UKNailRunner, I'm not sure I have, either. Of all the parts of my body I worry about as I age, my nails are nowhere near the top of the list.
DeleteHmm. Did it peel? Its really expensive at $14!
ReplyDeleteMicki, I didn't wear it long enough to find out if it would chip or peel. Their website talks about how the first coat "bonds to the nail" and the second makes a "flexible web of color that resists chipping" but I can't testify to how well that matches reality.
DeleteThe colors are really pretty, but not unique - and the anti-aging benefits are not at all a selling point for me either - in fact anti-aging in nail polish, ahhhr, come on...
ReplyDeleteMaria, I agree.
DeletePretty!!! :D
ReplyDeleteLizzy, thanks!
DeleteOnce again...anti-aging nail polish???....hmmm I don't think it works either way. It's as if they sold an anti-aging shampoo (which I think they do) but still that won't stop grey hairs and thinning right?
ReplyDeleteI don't know it's all too weird to me now.
The colors are pretty tho!
Interesting...I do like the shades of these :D
ReplyDeleteI think that I don't believe in anti-aging benefits of nail polishes, but I do like both of them! :-)
