L.A. Colors Color Craze Nail Polish Review

L.A. Colors Color Craze Nail Polish Review
Previously, I did a post on how to make each nail polish coat work better on the nails. In the image, you saw me use a blue nail polish. It was called L.A. Colors Color Craze, a cheap gift I received from my sister. 

Actually, she gave me two bottles. The other one is of green color. To be honest, it was the first time I used this brand’s nail polish. I actually had no hope from it. When I analyzed its texture I thought it was too thin and thus, would start coming off quite quickly. Now my opinion has changed. This review post has lots of surprises about Color Craze. So keep reading.

According to the label of the bottle, the nail polish contains the ingredient called hardener. I checked the website of LA Colors. I found out from it that this color craze is a new addition. Just take a look below.

Now the thing is that I did not take off the blue nail polish from my nails after doing that previous post. Also I did not wear a clear coat over it for protection. On that same day, I cleaned off the carpet of my car and washed its exterior without wearing any gloves. At night, I cooked and cleaned the dishes.

Next day, I did some more heavy duty tasks and that is also without wearing gloves. At night, I took a picture of Color Craze I had on my nails. Here is the result:

Today, it is Friday. I am still wearing the nail polish. I took a picture of how it is doing now. Just see it below:

I am told that L.A. Colors Color Craze costs only a dollar. But its quality seems to be superior. I hate to bring up another brand in this post, but I will have to admit that I did not receive this same quality from OPI nail polish despite the fact that it has much thicker texture and its only one coat is enough for each nail. 

Another thing I would like to say is that the Color Craze does not have that strong nail polish odor. Yes, just during wearing it I did smell a little bit of it. But after two hours, there was nothing. Moreover, the color simply looks stunning and makes the nails look elegant.Only strange thing I am noticing is that although now my nails are quite strong I am not seeing any growth in them. 

Verdict:

I am truly surprised by Color Craze. I will just call it as one of the best. It is hard to believe that although it is so cheap in price it works better than some of the most high end nail paints. That is why, from me, it gets all 5 stars.

Trick to Getting Every Coat of the Nail Polish Better

Wearing nail polish is fun. But its beauty on the nails can get ruined by its uneven layers coming from the application of its 2 or 3 coats.  We all know that it happens especially when the nail polish liquid is too thin. 

Fortunately, there is a way to avoid this problem. It is actually a very simple trick that will force your thin paint to give high definition and gloss to your nails.

1. First of all you must know that this trick works better with patience. So do it when you have no work in hand. Maybe during a lazy afternoon?

2. Apply the first coat of the nail polish to each nails. Allow the color to completely dry off. 

It is comprehensible that the first coat will not give you much color. That is why, you will be able to see the bed of your nails. It’s okay. To make this trick work, we have to spare it.

3. Once you feel that your first coat has fully dried off wear the second one. This time again, allow the nail polish to dry off. 

Just like before, this layer is going to stay slightly transparent. Do not get disappointed. We are almost there. 

4. When the second layer too has dried off go for the 3^rd coat. It will be your final work with the nail polish. 

By this time, your nails should look completely embellished with the color. Once this portion dries off, you will be fully ready to go.

5. Now if needed you can also wear the sealer, the transparent nail polish to protect your color.  

This trick does look time consuming. But this is the only way to make thin paint work. If you wish to not deal with them you can go for the nail polish that has thicker texture. Here is a list of their names:

• Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Fast Dry Nail Color
• Cover Girl Boundless Nail Color Polish
• Maybelline Express Finish
• OPI

7 Worst Nail Polish Colors That You Must Avoid

The fate of the beautiful hands depends much on the nail polish color and its texture. That is why, it is important that we avoid those that will bring them demise. Today, we take a look at them here.

1. Mulberry Street from N.Y.C

It is a light brown color. Wearing it is as same as not wearing anything. The problem is that it makes the hands look overworked and sometimes completely dead.

2. The Lime Starts Here from Color Club

 The name says it all, but don’t be deceived by the picture given here. When worn this specific lime color screams Crayola marker.

3. Neon Green from Claire’s

You really do not require buying it. The green highlighter you have in your pencil purse matches it too well. So scribble it all over your nails and tell people that you just wore Neon Green of Claire’s.

4. The Atomic Orange from OPI

Not sure why, but it does a great job in darkening the hands while highlighting the imperfections of the fingers.

5. Posh Pink from Rimmel London

It is the hot pink color and yes, in the bottle it looks quite beautiful.. But on nails, it screams cheapness.

6. Sunshine Yellow from Avon

Not every brand can perfectly make the yellow color. Sunshine yellow of Avon is just the evidence of that. Apparently, it speaks pencil color.

7. Cool Lilac from Estee Lauder

This nail polish is of extremely light pink color. Although Estee Lauder does a great job in coming up with the most elegant nail polish colors with cool lilac they have failed dramatically. It just remains too invisible on the nails.
