LVX Nail Lacquer Review/ Swatches

I love switching up my nail color and was so excited to try LVX nail polish for the first time.

What I Recieved

-These polishes are part of the 2013 Spring Collection-

LVX Nail Lacquer In Viridian ( Creamy OpaqueMint Emerald Green)

LVX Nail Lacquer In Indigo Bleu (Creamy Opaque Deep Blue W/Purple Navy Undertones)

LVX Nail Lacquer In Citrine ( Creamy Opaque Warm Golden Honey Yellow)

Formula/Application

The formula on Citrine is a little streaky. I had to keep a very light and steady hand to avoid bald patches. I used Three coats for full, even opacity, however Indigo Bleu & Viridian are super opaque after just one application and the formula isnt streaky at all , I apply 1 full coat and I had no problem with it being patch or anything , this did apply very smooth and even to each nail , it also does self level itself if you do get a a little polish happy and happy to much polish .

Brush

The LVX brush is wide, and the length of the handle/brush is shorter, which I like for control which is perfect for almost everyone whether you have small or big nail beds .

Staying Power

These polish last forever , these are one of the longest lasting nail polishes I have tried , LVX is a chip resistant nail polish , which mean you will not have an chipping , as far as staying power the polish lasted a full 2 week before I changed out the current color I had on to a different one, however even after that 2 weeks I still had no chipping or wearing on any of my nails , with that being said these polish last a very long time on your nails and I'm sure they will probaby last longer depending what your do and how you prep your nails before and after .

Pros

Chip Resistant , Long Lasting , Chemical Free , High Shine , Smooth Finish

Cons

Price ( I no many people will think these are pricey but for the quality these are so worth it )

Price/ Packaging

I love the packaging , they are very similar to the Chanel Nail Lacquer . They are a small square glass bottle with a black plastic top which has the LVX text on the top , however the black plastic square top in removable , once removed you will see the black handle brush, the bottle also does have a label on the bottle with the name of each polish , website & ingredients , the polish bottle is finally enclosed in a cute sleek shiny black box with sliver text and trimmings , they also have the name of the polish on the bottom on the box ! LVX retails for $16.00 USD for 15ml / .5oz.

My Thoughts - I have to admit that I was very prepared to say that I couldn't see myself purchasing any more LVX, especially considering the $16 price tag. But, overall, after playing with the amazing formulas, I'm not so sure. These are quality polishes with phenomenal, consistent formulas, what I didn’t expect was to be so blown away by the formula that I think it may be the best I’ve tried to date. Ever.

**These products were sent to me by LVX for review, I did not purchase these myself. However, this is my own opinion and experiences with the products.**
