I love the light pink nail polish from this Colour Boost line by Essence. I really loved it in the summertime, it was a perfect baby pink shade that looked good on tanned skin. For this red one, I'm pretty sure I got it on a SummerMBeauty blogger event, but I'm not sure. The shade is called 03 Instant Kiss. It comes in a clear glass bottle and black cap, the shape is not my favourite. You get 9ml of product for about 2-3€. The brush is thick, round cut and easy to work with.
03 Instant Kiss is that true perfect red shade. The formula is nice and a bit liquidy, but still okay pigmented. I like it more than the pink one, that one had more of a pastel type formula, not so much at the start, but after a couple of uses it really started to act like it, it's thicker and that typical, harder to work with formula. By this one, the formula it's quite sheer, two coats could be enough, but since the formula is thin, the tips can be visible, so I normally do three coats. It dries very quickly and it's very shiny. It didn't chip when I wore it, only the tips were showing the signs of wear, but overall it lasted for a good couple of days.
I really like it, I only have one similar shade in my collection. I like the formula, it's super easy to work with and dries quickly, it lasts quite a long time on me, longer than most nail polishes.
Thank you for reading!
