Every now and then, it is nice to put a dollar store beauty item to the test. After all, everyone has a different budget to work with. At some points, trips to Sephora are in order, at other times, the drugstore is most appropriate, and at certain times, it is dollar store all the way. Whatever your budget...you deserve to find products that work well and make you feel fabulous. Since this ultra sparkly nail polish from the brand Cairuo caught my eye at the dollar store recently (and it only cost $1.25 CDN) it seemed only right to put this polish to the test and find out how it compares to other more expensive offerings.
There are certainly some pros and cons to consider when it comes to this Cairuo Fashion Color Nail Polish. The pros? It is only $1.25 per bottle, the nail polish applies well, and the glitter finish is gorgeous. Though it doesn't necessarily photograph the best, in person, it looks phenomenal. It has such a beautiful sparkle when the light hits it. This colour is a really pretty golden almost rust colour. It is warm, glittery, and neutral enough that looks wonderful with any and all outfit choices. The nail polish also dried reasonably fast and is comparable to more expensive brands in terms of the finish and performance. The cons? This nail polish shade has no name, the gold lid is plastic and cheap, and there was chipping on the end of the nails after four days. That being said, two weeks later, my nails are still mostly glittery. It is possible to do a quick touch up on the ends of the nails to extend this at home nail look. Overall, this was an impressive product that performs similarly or better to brand name nail polish brands. For only $1.25 it is possible to create a beautiful nail polish look with lots of shimmer and shine.
This nail polish from Cairuo is proof that something that is affordable can still perform well. Though there are more expensive brands that I love....this nail polish really delivered. It is one that I will use again and again, because I know it looks incredible.
Have you ever tried a dollar store nail polish? How did that perform compared to other brands?
