This publish was prompted by a evaluation of the Doves as well as Roses’ evaluation of Essie spun in Lux in which she talked about exactly how rapidly the polish chipped. I had bought 3 polishes from the Cashmere Matte collection from my birthday haul however I had yet to try them. After reading Anne’s review, I was a bit apprehensive about the formula. The Cashmere Matte collection came out earlier this year with 6 shades ranging from ivory all the method to a deep blackened navy – I purchased the mid-range shades (as I’m wont to do!):
I’m not a fan of matte surface polishes however I purchased these with the intent to apply a topcoat over them to draw out the neat blue shimmer.
Just stitched – matte creamy light pink with blue shimmer
The upper photo shows the polish without a topcoat, as well as the bottom one with Poshe topcoat applied. This shade used extremely patchy – it needed 3 coats to smooth out. Adding a topcoat brought out the blue shimmer somewhat however it wasn’t as obvious as in the bottle.
Comfy in Cashmere – matte mauvey taupe with blue shimmer
This had a fabulous formula – it was relatively thin as well as simple to spread and opaque in 2 coats. The topcoat brought out the blue shimmer somewhat however only truly visible in specific light.
Coat Couture – matte bluey grey with blue shimmer
This formula was decent – it had a thicker consistency and I might get away with just one coat. The topcoat truly brought out the blue shimmer in this – it was rather mesmerizing.
I discovered it fascinating that the formula of these 3 were around the location – with comfy in Cashmere being the best. This was the colour I ended up keeping on for the week to test out the wear time. On the morning of day 3 of the trial, I published a picture on Instragram stating that the polish was performing well… however I spoke as well soon. That evening I was out with a buddy as well as occurred to clean with my hair with my hand as well as the polish on my index finger flicked best off in one sheet!
It was type of entertaining as well as amazing! The polish sheet appeared like a press-on nail. I truly didn’t understand what to make of it since none of my other fingers showed major signs of wear or peeling. So I just reapplied comfy in Cashmere back onto my index finger as well as went about my business.
Then came day 5 in the evening – I’m at home, washing my hands as well as notice that my middle finger is all of a sudden sans polish! I retraced my steps as well as discovered the nail polish sheet in the hallway:
This couldn’t potentially be a fluke! I’ve never had nail polish pop off such as this before! Just for the record, I utilized my common base as well as topcoat that I utilize for many manicures: Orly Bonder as well as Poshe. I cannot discuss what occurred with the Cashmere Matte formula – perhaps it interacted with my base as well as topcoat to cause it to not adhere correctly to my nail bed. Also, you’re not imagining things, the colour of comfy in Cashmere did turn darker when it dried – I discovered this the next morning after I used it. I ought to mention that on day 5, I likewise started experiencing major chipping:
The chipping was isolated to just my best thumb as well as my left middle finger (the one that popped off) – however look at exactly how well kept my left thumb is! I had enough: that night I eliminated this polish from all my fingers (it would have been good if they all chose to flick off at this point however nope).
I’m not providing up on the Cashmere Matte formula – I’ll try out other bases as well as topcoats to see exactly how they perform. As well, I’m curious if the other shades I have will carry out differently. What a puzzling polish! have you tried the Essie Cashmere Matte polishes?
