Name: Nail Polish in 112
Brand: Layla
Size: 10ml
Price: €7.60

From Layla’s website:
A light coat is enough to provide an opaque coverage. Dries quickly and applies easily. Longlasting.

What I liked:
- pigmented
- nice formula, easy to work with
- doesn’t streak
- dries quickly
- longlasting
- the packaging
- the price

What I didn’t like:
- I honestly can’t think of anything

Layla’s nail polishes are among my favourites: they are pigmented, longlasting and don’t break the bank. So, when I saw that TU Style Magazine included a Layla polish as a freebie, and cost just €1,00, I just had to get it. There were four shades available – red, blue, silver and purple – and I opted for the red one as I thought it was quite festive and perfect for this time of the year. And judging from the reviews I’ve read, it was also the one with the best formula!

Layla Nail Polish in 112 is a bright but quite dark red with a shiny finish that’s very beautiful and elegant. The texture is just right, not too thick and not too thin, and applies easily without streaking. The color is also pigmented so one coat is enough for a completely opaque coverage. The polish dries very quickly, which is really important for me as I can never seem to keep my hands still for more than 5 minutes, and lasts long. It only started to chip, and only minimally, after six days. And that without a top coat!

Summary
Layla Nail Polish in 112 is a bright dark red with a shiny finish. It has a wonderful formula that applies easily, provides opaque coverage with just one coat, dries quickly and lasts about six days without a top coat before it starts to chip.

Rating: 4.5/5

Lovely! I’ve tried Layla and I like the brand, too. There polish really can go on with only one coat, which I think is awesome.

Trisha, I’m glad you like them too and that’s exactly what I love the most about their polishes, that most of them only require one coat. I hate having to apply more than that as I’m quite lazy lol.
