I am in Cuttack
at my parent’s house and I have to tell you this place is just burning hot.
Most of the day, I am sweating like a pig even when sitting under a fan. Not to
forget the horrible power cuts that happen any time of day. Well, enough of my
complaining. I recently got myself a nail polish from Blue Heaven because I had
forgotten to carry any nail paints on the trip. For people who don’t know much
about it, Blue Heaven is a local brand that produces cosmetics at really
affordable prices. Most small towns and even shops in villages seem to have
nail polishes, lipsticks and liners of this brand. Cosmetics available in small
cities and towns is very limited, mostly Lakme and Revlon. I don’t think people
have even heard of Maybelline, forget about Mac or Chanel. Anyways I asked the
shopkeeper to show me nail paints and he opened three boxes which all had
shades of pink and red nail paints. I asked him if he any colored nail polishes
and he looked at me dumfounded and said “Itne saare colors hai na”. Well, no comments but among that medley
of red and pink nail paints I found a silver nail polish and picked it up. Now
I don’t really like silver nail paints but I think it is a good base for
crackle nail paints and nail art.
The nail polish is a silvery and very shimmery. The shimmer
is not gritty and it applies smoothly on the nails, thanks to the pretty good
brush. I have to say I am very impressed with the staying power of this nail
polish. It has been four days since I applied it and it has not chipped or
faded. It is priced at INR 30 which is pretty good. Here are the
swatches…please forgive the really sad nail art..I am no expert at these things.
My recommendation: You can get it if you find nothing else J
