From Layla’s website:
For the first time in the history of hands Make-up we present the format “bijou” of the famous Layla Cosmetics nail polish. The quality is the same … and if you look closely … even the shape of the glass does not change.
What I liked:
- pigmented
- applies easily
- dries fast
- easy to remove
- the packaging
- the price
What I didn’t like:
- thick texture
Layla has selected 48 popular colors from their range, which deserved to become a “bijou” in the lives of their customers, and turned them into little jewels for their nails. Layla Bijou Enamels were born. The shade I have is n.107, a stunning blue, petrol green that’s both fun and elegant. And it dries in just a few minutes, so even those who like me can’t keep their hands still for more than 5 minutes won’t risk ruining their freshly-applied manicure.
The texture is on the thick side and because of this, a bit prone to bubbling, so be careful not to apply too much product to avoid this problem. I also noticed the first coat applied quite streaky, but the second coat quickly and easily solved that problem too. And because it has good color payoff, there is no need to apply a third coat. Staying power is good too. If I don’t wear a top coat, it lasts 4 days on my nails before it starts to chip.

Yaaaay! I love Layla’s nail polishes and I adore this shade on you. I do agree, though, some of their polishes can be on thicker side.

Brittany, I love their nail polishes too. I find most of them have a wonderful texture, but you do find some that are thicker, like this one. The color is gorgeous though.
i am quite liking this teal. very gorgeous esp for an evening out
xin´s last [type] ..Magnetic Nail Polish Fun – How it works and how to use?
Xin, it is a gorgeous shade indeed.
Again – very nice! Love that sort of colour for nails, though nearly all varnish wears off on me in about 24 hours – constant washing up and laundry I suppose
Viv, it’s a beautiful shade, isn’t it? Most nail polishes don’t last longer on me either, but I find that using a good top coat helps. Do you use one?
