Hey guys! Today I am going to be reviewing the Elf Nail polishes. My mom and I bought a four pack to share in full size and then my grandmother have me a mini fall collection set so since I have been using so much of it lately, I though that I would go ahead and review it.
Color:
The colors of this brand are deff one of my favorite things. There are so many shades to choose from and they are all very pigmented. I have yet to run across one that did not give good pigmentation. The color selection is very pretty!! Occasionally, they do not look exactly like they do in the bottle on the nail if that makes sense. But overall, I would give the color a 5 out of 5.
Formula:
The formula can be one of the best things about this product but it can also be the worst thing about this product. I have found that these polishes either have a creamy, easy to apply formula or they have a streaky formula. I find that the lighter colors are more likely the creamy texture as well as the darker colors. However, the bright colors are more often the streaky ones. This is not to say that this rule applies 100%, obviously, I have not tried out every color but that is a trend that I have deff noticed. Overall, I would give the formula a 3 out of 5. The formulas that are good are like a 5 out of 5 but the ones that are bad are like a 2 out o 5.
Durability:
Okay so this kind of goes along with what I said above. The creamy ones can last for a solid week and still look decent. I have a full size of Lilac which is a very pretty matte light purple and it lasts forever. Again, a lighter color and it has a great formula. However, I also have a full size of Teal Blue, which is a very deceptive name because this color is like Emerald Green...like Wizard of OZ Emerald Green, and it chips in 24 hours. It is such a shame because it is really a pretty color but it is just such bad quality and it does not last for more than three days because it starts to look so bad it just can't stay. I would give durability another 3 out of 5 overall, but like I said before, the ones that are good are a 5 out of 5.
Price:
I do not remember the exact price of the four pack that my mom and I bought full sized but it was not that expensive as Elf is not a high end brand. We purchased our four pack at TJ Max, but I am sure that you can find this brand at a drug store or your local food store. The mini set that I have was a gift so I do not know the price, but again, do not think that it was too expensive. Price gets a 5 out of 5.
Overall Opinion:
Overall, I think that the Elf nail polishes are worth purchasing because they are very pretty and the ones that area good are really good. However, I would stay away from the bright colors because even though it is summer and they are SO pretty, they are just poorly formulated and you are going to be constantly touching up or re-painting your nails. So overall, I would give these polishes a 4 out of 5.
Okay, that is everything for my Elf Nail Polish review. If you have tried these out before, leave me a comment below and let me know what your thought of them and what you would rate them. Also, let me know which ones you have tried.
