Review: Missha Nail Polish in GR002 - UPDATED (added more info.)

I bought Missha nail polishes last month (December 2009) because I was searching for more unique colors to try on my nails.


FYI: MISSHA HAS ALSO OPENED A STORE IN SM NORTH EDSA ANNEX. I THINK IT HAS OPENED THE SAME TIME ETUDE HOUSE HAS OPENED HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES. UNFORTUNATELY, PRICES OF THE PRODUCTS ARE ALSO JACKED UP LIKE SKINFOOD STORES HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES. I'M NOT SURPRISED WHY NEWS ABOUT MISSHA OPENING A STORE HERE DID NOT BECAME POPULAR.


I only bought 3 nail polishes, 1 from each of their nail polish line except from their ridiculously expensive nailpolish line...I think they have 4 nail polish line which ranges from a bit expensive (P100-120) to RIDICULOUSLY expensive (which ranges from P120-P250 I THINK)....THESE ARE THE PRICES I BELIEVE I SAW IN THE MALL LAST MONTH. JUST CHECK! Sorry for my short term memory loss..hahaha!



I'm not really the type to splurge on something that is not really a necessity, but I gave in to try IMPULSE BUYING for once in my life. I should live a little..Life is short...hahaha!

Prices of the Missha Nail Polishes from my online seller ranges from P75.00-P250.00 (this was when it was on sale). Now, I think prices are higher, but not as high as the mall prices.

I bought my Missha nail polish from an online seller in multiply. She gave me a bit of a special discount from my purchases last Christmas because I am already her "suki" (long time loyal customer). So the price I stated above are her regular prices. hehehe! I remember I bought this for only P75.00


So here's my first review on Missha nail polishes.


Product: Missha Nail Polish in GR002 (this is their regular nail polish line)

What it looks like on natural light:

What it looks like with flash:

The at the bottom, the bottle looks like it is shaped like a heart. Trademark of Missha. All of their nail polish bottles are heart-shaped

Comment:

In the bottle, it looks like a gorgeous teal color or a creamy sea foam green color.

Pro:
- Opaque at first coat. Anyone who is a pro at applying nail polishes can get it at 1 coat.
- Dries fast.
- Doesn't have a strong nail polish smell which is great because I have asthma. (unless when you smell right from the bottle which is quite stupid..hahaha!)
- lasts for a week at most. (I have tested this while doing heavy duty chores at home and the only flaw you can see are little cracks here and there, but no chipping)

What it looks like on nails:

YAH! I KNOW THE NAIL APPLICATION LOOKS LIKE CRAP! I WAS SO EXCITED ON TAKING A PICTURE OF THIS RIGHT AFTER I APPLIED THE NAIL POLISH. SO, STOP HATIN' I DON'T NEED TO READ SENSELESS COMMENTS.

Natural light (w/o top coat on):

I forgot to take a picture of this with the camera flash on.

Cons:
- expensive for a nail polish (costs Php120)
- looks quite dull and flat on nails when top coat is not yet applied.

This is what it looks like when I applied some subtle glitters on it:

Natural Light: 

With flash:

I used this for a "bling" effect because it was quite dull looking without top coat.

This was only given to me by my sister. She's not really into nail polishes so she gave me this. Some random nailpolish from Dubai, but I love this. Makes any kind of dull nail polishes look better.

Have a nice day!
