Nail Polish Haul & Review

I have been meaning to blog since like forever but the weather, yes that, kept coming in the way. It has been freaking cold and all I have managed to do since past month is to eat, sleep, and then eat and sleep and so on. I did not want to leave my bed and my cosy blanket and felt so lethargic its no wonder I didnt feel like doing anything. Lahore has broken all its previous records of cold and it felt like I was in London at times. Anyways now that the weather is a wee bit better, I finally decided to move my butt and write some long pending posts. So to start off with I will be doing a nail polish review today.

Im not a nail polish fan to be honest and most of the times my nail polished end up getting ruined because of lack of use. So when I was buying the nail polishes this time around I made sure they were mini and can get used up quickly. I ordered Kleancolor Techno High Metallic Nail Lacquer mini collection from BeautyInBudget4u which is an online shopping site on face book. They bring in all sorts of imported yummy cosmetics which arent easily available here and that too on awesome discounted prices. I loved my shopping experience there and they have a large variety so you guys can check them out. Ok on to the product.

Review
So lets start off with the packaging. Like they claim, it is travel friendly size. Yo can easily throw the in your bag and take them wherever you want, they package is very light weight since these are mini lacquers so dont worry about the baggage.





Now are they longlasting? unfortunately NO! They claim that these polishes are chip-resistance which in my case did not hold true. My nails got chipped in a few hours after applying the coat which was pretty annoying. I mean I know these are cheap and all but I was hoping that they would at least last a day. Also the smell is really strong which did not set very well with me.I would recommend using a base coat before applying these.

I like the shades overall, they are like it says, metallic and Im glad that I got a variety of colors in a cheap amount. I loved two of their shades, one is Metallic Pink and the other is Metallic Purple. Swatches below.

                                                                     Metallic Pink



                                                                   Metallic Purple

Pros 
Cheap
Light packaging
Various shades
Easy to apply

Cons
Too small
Leave stain
Short term chip resistance
Smell too strong
Dont dry fast

So there you have it folks. Hope you liked the review, Till then happy shopping ;)
