LONDONTOWNLakur Nail Polish, Portobello Plum, 0.4 fl. oz.

Nail polish junkie with ~100 bottles of every brand I've ever seen. This stuff knocks it out of the park. Super fabulous color, very chip resistant, and applies flawlessly. My new fave.I've had mixed experiences buying beauty products on Amazon and was happy with this purchase. Product exactly in same quality as one received from Londontownusa, but without the really high shipping cost.

Box says gluten free. Ingredients include hydrolyzed wheat protein. So it’s DEFINITELY not gluten free and therefore shouldn’t say so. It’s not a huge problem for me but could be for people with extreme sensitivity. I would expect more responsible labeling.

I love nail polish. I bought this based on a review from someone who sounded like me. They get chips or something wrong after 2 days. I’m very hard on my manicures. I like gel and dip powder but not the damage it leaves. And I want something I can do at home. This stuff is AMAZING. I cants believe how well it wears. No chips. None. I’ve tried Sally Hansen, Butter, Essie, opi, etc. nothing has ever lasted like this for me. I want every color.

I am usually skeptical about higher priced beauty products. I like many of them, but I have also been burned by paying a lot for things that end up being quite similar to their drug-store-level counterparts. I do my own nails because I work around the house and use my hands a lot. Manicures get chipped in a few days for me. I do like some polishes more than others because of their durability. I have been stuck on pearly white Sally Hansen for a looooong time, but they stopped making it. :( I usually choose light colors because you can't see chips as well as you can with dark. I love dark reds, but there is too much maintenance. I was worried about this lilac color because first, it is a different sort of color and I worried that it would look weird on me. And second, would any tiny chip really show.I put on the first light coat (I don't usually do heavy coats because I am impatient! ha ha!! I inevitably reach for the remote or something and smudge wet polish!) I was worried because it seemed pretty sheer for the first coat. I usually need 2-3 coats based on how much I put on with each swipe. On the second coat, I was happily surprised that it covered pretty opaquely. This was nicer polish than I first assumed! I did touch up 2 or three nails with a third coat where I put it on too thinly. They looked really good! I was also happily surprised at how much I liked this color. It is noticeable, but not too teenager-y or funky. I like those, but they are just not appropriate for work. I save the glitter for new years eve and vacations! This was pretty and feminine, but still not boring.The biggest surprise was how well it wears. I put this on and went about my normal day. Paperwork, typing, washing dishes (I don't wear gloves or anything like that), cleaning my bathroom, even decorating our christmas tree and untangling those evil lights!! THEN I took the photo the next morning. I figured if it looked scratched up or chipped, I would report it fairly. But it didn't. And I was kind of expecting it too. I would totally buy this brand in more colors.edit: I forgot to add one little thing: If you buy a color you like, make note of the name. Strangely, my bottle does not have the color name on the bottle at all, it was only on the box the bottle came in (which I threw away.) It is just a blank bottle.update: Actually, three IS a name on the bottle...it is just really tiny and was hard to see. (I added another photo...I needed to see it using my camera, my eyes couldn't read it alone!) Also, I have to add that I LOVE this polish. I am actually on this page again to buy some more colors. It lasts really well for me, even with no topcoat (I usually don't have time for that) and with USING my hands. I don't wash dishes with gloves, and I have been baking all week for christmas and this stuff has held up like a champ. LOVE it.update again (1/10): I loved the purple so much, I also bought this item in the Early Grey. I liked the performance of the lilac (Trolley Away) so much that I wanted more colors!!! The grey is very nice too...it kind of reminds me of car primer or a battleship (ha ha!) but it is shiny! I never thought I would like grey nail polish, but it really performs like a neutral. It looks great with black! and it seems to resist chipping on me very very well. I am trying not to buy more colors so soon...I would like to buy them all!

I can't believe how streak-free this polish is! I have it in Cheerio, a sheer cream color, and adore it. I've ordered a second bottle to put in my travel bag so I always have it on hand. I used it with Prolana nail treatment as a base coat and Seche Vite quick-dry top coat and it hasn't chipped at all (three days so far, which is long for me). I even threw away a couple of other bottles of similar polish!

The color is pretty but the polish does not dry. It keeps smudging even the next day after I applied it. I have tried multiple times, leaving an hour between coats. You have to use two coats as the first coat is streaky.I would return it if I could, but it is non-returnable, which is something to think about as it is expensive

I got this polish just for a few dots on a nail art design, but I actually ended up loving the polish itself and wearing it on its own (with a bit of glitter!) several times. I expected a creme polish, but it was actually a jelly, which I LOVED. It's just the right opacity to be able to get full color with one coat, a really luscious look with two coats, and practically full opacity with three coats. It's a really cute color that goes with my skin tone more than I thought it would. The bottle is small unfortunately, but that's the only real downside. It's pretty self-leveling, has a nice finish, and isn't overly stinky.

Goes on nicely, doesn't have a high shine finish, but I primarily purchased because I have terrible nails and wanted to try something without the formaldehyde. Purchased the base coat also, and the polish does last longer than others. If you want high shine, you'd need a top coat. Can't say yet if this helps my nails, and that's the reason for 4 stars. Only used it 2X & I wouldn't ordinarily pay this much for nail polish, but if it keeps my nails from splitting/cracking it'll be worth it.

Wow, I bought this for my Missus on her Birthday - it's quite a bit more expensive than her usual glittery Nail polish - but she likes this type so I bought it.She applied two coats after shaking the bottle - and the final result was a super smooth beautiful silvery hue with the fine and larger glitter flecks which are very striking and beautifully exhibited in many lovely colours - reflects the light in many nice ways, and subtle too - not in your face.Different angles reveal different facets to the sheen, look and glitter.The price is well worth it, as the bottle has a nice solid expensive look to it, the varnish is high quality lacquer and two coats gives a smooth even high quality coat - and the look is luxurious, attractive and galmourous woithout being in your face.It looks black in the bottle but is actually a beautiful grey/silver hue with multi tones.She's very happy!This is primarily a Lacquer, so it can be varnished over a solid colour to give different hues and effects Magnificently - giving an extra dimension and versatility to this product with so many variations.

The colour is nice and looks natural (at least for my nails). It's very easy to apply and dries quickly. However, it peals off very quickly too, even with minimal use of water or hardly any washing up. I bought it hoping that my nails would recover after becoming damaged from using 'normal' nail varnish. I've haven't used nail varnish for a couple of months and used the Lakur for a few weeks. My nails are still brittle and pealing. Until I started using nail varnish last year, I had very strong and healthy nails. If they recover with the Lakur, I'll buy more of these products, but it is quite annoying having to apply it twice a week. I also use Kur Nail Hardener and Kur Protective Top Coat but these product don't prevent the pealing.

I'm normally only wearing nail varnish very occasionally as I care about my nails and don't like to put nasties on them. I decided to give this a try and I'm glad I did! The varnish was very easy to apply (even though I'm not used to it), the colour very rich and vibrant, one coat looked ok but after two coats it looked brilliant (I didn't use any undercoat or anything on top of it). I had it on my toe nails for three weeks (including one week on holiday in contact with chlorine in the swimming pool) and not one chip or scratch. When I eventually decided to take it off (using acetone-free nail wipes) it was very easy and came off cleanly leaving no residue (despite it's dark colour). My nails look as healthy and strong as ever. I'm now tempted to buy more colours an who knows, maybe even try it on my hands!

I bought 2 of these and realised that they were the wrong colour but could not get retuning them .

Not as I expected
