NARS Kalymnos Nail Polish (15 ml for 1400/- INR)
After buying almost a dozen NARS lipsticks, NARS blushes and shadows I picked their nail polish sometime late last year. I tried 2 pastel shades and also picked their shimmer shade which I will get soon but here is the pastel shade I picked after reading a lot of reviews – NARS Kalymnos
Shade – NARS Kalymnos is described as LILAC, it is cool toned pastel lavender mauve shade with soft satiny sheen and no shimmer to it. The other shade I tried form this range was also pastel like I mentioned above and I find them very summer appropriate and feel that they will go really well on everyone and anyone.
Texture – The texture is medium to thick but the application was streak free and required two coats to get the even coverage. I like the texture of NARS Nail polish and have tried two cream finishes and looking forward to pick their shimmer range which has some famous shades.
Pigmentation – NARS Kalymnos is decently pigmented and I used two coats here with no base and top coat to show you actual colour. The polish stayed nicely without chipping and fading for 3 – 4 days and on 2nd day I used a top coat to prevent it from chipping.
Brush – I adore NARS brush, it is small, rounded and fits on my nails very easily giving streak free application even if am in a hurry. The size is perfect and the flat tip is great in my opinion. The polish comes in classic NARS black outer box and rubberised cap which is prone to dust.
Overall Thoughts
So far I liked the shades from their pastel range and want to pick their shimmer , the staying power , the shade selection and the brush is something which makes me fall for their nail polish and I highly recommend you to try their permanent line .
