I am an absolute nail polish addict. I don't think I ever really go more than a week without changing the colour on my nails and the amount of bottles I have from different brands is verging on ridiculous. I'm always looking for more though so when a surprise package from the lovely people at FreedomPR arrived I was so excited. I'd seen CND polishes on Instagram in the past and always liked the look of them and the range of colours so I put these to the test pretty much straight away!
If you've not heard of CND (Creative Nail Design) before, well they are the global leader in professional hand, nail and foot beauty. You'll mostly find CND products in salons but as they're now available online at places like Cult Beauty, Nail Polish Direct and more, people are starting to try them out and discover why they are so popular amongst professionals. I was sent a few different bottles try out from the Vinylux collection, all of which are the first ever, long-wear polishes infused with Vitamin E, Keratin and Jojoba Oil
Unearthed and Unlocked
I was really excited to see a few bottles of nude nail polish as it's a go to colour of mine. I think no matter what the season a nude polish always looks classy and chic and goes with every outfit. The two shades I was sent are Unearthed which is a warm toned taupe colour and Unlocked which is light creamy nude colour. I absolutely adore both of these! I like that whilst they're both nude shades, they're really different to one another when actually on your nails. Unlocked was more of a lighter colour than I was expecting, more of a stone colour with a hint of dusty pink but it looks so pretty on. What I like about both of these aswell was how easy they applied. The brush fits the nail really well and just glides really smoothly meaning you're not left with streaky nail polish which has definitely happened to me in the past with other brands. With the top coat I found they last for well over a week with minimal chipping and when it came to removing them, it came off within seconds.Jellied
Aswell as the nude polishes I was also sent the shade Jellied which is a beautiful pastel yellow colour. Yellow is one of my favourite colours but a lot of the time nail polish that shade is quite bold unlike me so pastel shades like this are perfect. This really impressed me and it's been a go to of mine over the last few weeks whilst we've had some warm weather. I found it applied really well like the nude polishes above and had great durability meaning it lasted far longer than most other polishes I have. I imagine it's one I'll be getting a lot of wear of over the next few months.Long Wear Top Coat
Aswell as the stunning colours I've already mentioned, there was also a top coat which I'm always happy to try out. This one has been absolutely brilliant and far better than any others I've used. I was a really big fan of the Seche Vite top coat but for some reason over the last few months it's not worked at all, my nails have been chipping so much, so I was really keen to see if this would be a good replacement for that, and it has been. It totally protects your nails and I've found I've had minimal chipping whilst using this. It also dries quickly and the colour each time has lasted so much longer than usual.
I've absolutely loved trying out all of these nail polishes from CND and I think they're all going to become firm favourites of mine. The nude polishes are just great for all year round and the pastel yellow is just beautiful and a must for Summer! If you're in the market for a new nail brand then I definitely recommend CND. They have a huge range available, these in particular are priced at around £6.95 at the moment and you can see more on their website.
