CLIO s117

I am a big fan of Korean cosmetics. Korean brands usually make very good nail polishes and their price is quite moderate. Formulas are usually very good, in most cases it is really easy to apply the polish. If I had an ability to do so, I would probably buy all the polishes from all the brands.

CLIO is a Korean professional brand, they make lots of other products. I've tried several mascaras (absolutely the best!), bb-creams, eyeliners, lip colors, foundation powder, etc. I really liked the quality so I decided to try nail polishes as soon as I was able to. CLIO s117 is a beautiful mint creme with no shimmer. The formula is great, it was easy to apply the polish. The brush is pretty wide though, it may be an inconvenience for some people. It was a bit tricky to paint nails on my pinky fingers because of the brush but not too tricky. Dior or Yves Saint Laurent brushes are way worse for me. The polish is completely opaque after two coats and pretty glossy. I used Orly Polishield on top for greater longevity. All photos are taken in different conditions in order to show how the shade of the polish is closer to green or closer to blue depending on the lighting.
