Another nail polish, another S.he Colour&Style. This is
the S.he Colour&Style Quick’n Crazy Nail Polish, in the shade 323/620!

Another nail polish that my mother just came and handed me. I’m
really not one to wear red nail polishes, sadly. Although I love how they look,
I really hate how most red nail polishes tinge my nails slightly reddish after
I remove them. So I tend to just avoid them altogether. That said, I wasn’t
excited at all to see this nail polish among the ones she gave me. Not only is
it bright red, it’s also a Quick’n’Crazy, which haven’t been good in the past. But
hey, she spent money and at least a bit of time on choosing these so the least
I can do is try them out. Now, let’s see what this one is like!

Packaging: very basic, just a little glass cube that is very
light. The text is silver metallic, which is fine with this shade of red. The
text in the back is white, which is an excellent choice. The cap is silver
metallic like the text in the front and closes super tightly. However, it’s
also a fingerprint magnet, which isn’t fun.

Ingredients: nothing nourishing and 3-free (DBP,
formaldehyde, toluene). It’s only got 10 ingredients, not counting the
pigments. This is pretty slim! The scent is like most nail polishes, but there
is a certain sweetness to it... interesting. The expiration date is 36 months
after opening.

Brush: okay, the brush here is decent. It’s a small flat
brush that picks up entirely too much nail polish (don’t forget to tap off the
excess). It applies it evenly and it’s pretty precise, so I don’t have much to
complain about, really. It’s fun to use!

Colour: a bright, vibrant cherry red! It’s got a bit more
orange undertones than blue, which makes it look warm and fun. It’s still an
evergreen colour, one that looks good on all skintones and in all seasons!
Although if is particularly good for summer, with nautical style of clothing,
for example! Navy stripes and red nails, classic combo! It’s a gorgeous colour,
even though I’m not used to wearing red nail polish. It looks especially bright
and vibrant on my pale skin! I wouldn’t exactly say that this is a sexy red
colour, it’s more of a fun, sweet one I think.

The formula is lightweight but it feels a bit cheap. It’s
definitely gelly, but it also feels too thin in some ways. It’s extremely easy
to use, though. Zero fuss, literally!

One coat is perfectly opaque and looks very nice. The colour
is already very vibrant with one coat, but it’s a bit too sheer. I can still
see my nails underneath, and I would like it to be opaque. With two coats it
seems to be almost completely opaque; I say almost because I think I can
see a tiny bit of my nails underneath. But it’s opaque enough. The texture is
very glossy.

Longevity is, for lack of a better term, garbage. It starts
to chip within 24 hours, and it’s not small, barely noticeable chipping either.
Large chunks start to fall off by day 3, so it looks awful by day 3. God forbid
you accidentally touch the nail polish, it will chip off most immediately. It’s
terrible... what use is a nail polish that cannot tolerate anything?? Of
course, a hair wash decimated it, and by the end of day 5 it looked atrocious.
Half chipped off on all nails, just what I wanted... but there is one good
thing, if you’ll believe it. See, it doesn’t really get scratched up... yay.
That’s for sure going to be useful once half of an entire nail chips off...

Removal: while it is pretty easy to remove (it doesn’t
require a whole lot of rubbing to remove fully), it does stain my nails red. It’s
not as visible on the white part of the nail, but the nail bed is definitely
more red than before. This is a known issue with red nail polishes and is the
top reason why I choose not to wear them except on specific occasions. It’s
very frustrating having this red tinge to my nails...
All in all, a godawful nail polish. That’s it, it’s simply
horrible. The only good things are the brush, which is easy to use, and the
colour, which is very elegant and pretty. But everything else? Straight into
the rubbish bin. The formula feels cheap, and it has literally 0 tolerance
for... well, anything! It chips off as soon as you just touch the nail
polish... how absurd is that?! By the end of day 5 it was in a really sorry
state, all chipped off and just flat out ugly looking. Ugh. Horrible. But the colour
is quite elegant; it is a vibrant cherry red that isn’t as sexy as it is
elegant and playful at the same time. It looks stunning on pale skin but it is
one of those colours that looks good no matter what colour your skin is. But
imagine the high point of the nail polish being solely the colour... yeah, it’s
that bad. Now, I knew deep within that it wasn’t going to be good – most
Quick’n’Crazy polishes have been bad, to say the least – so I am not too upset.
Meh, it was a gift after all. Nope, 0 chance it gets any recommendation, you’d
be better served buying a red Catrice ICONAILS instead...
