This fast-drying nail polish, reinforces and protects nails, glides on smooth for gorgeous, glossy colour. For long-lasting wear, apply two coats using Crabtree & Evelyn Clear Nail Lacquer as both a colour-adhesive base and a protective finish.
I discovered Crabtree & Evelyn a few years ago through a friend who introduced me to their Ultra-Moisturizing Hand Therapy. I always forget to carry moisturizer around so she was my lifesaver! Their Hand Therapy moisturizers are purely amazing and their nail polishes are just as incredible!
The variety of shades are endless. Everyone will find a colour that best suits them. The nail polishes themselves are true to colour and very pigmented. One-to-two coats is all you need. I also love that they are fast drying, I will have to say under five minute of drying time. They will chip/fade off but not until day 4 onward.
They recently came out with a few more (gorgeous) shades which I intend to purchase very soon.
Not only are the colours beautiful but the fact that they are “formulated without camphor, dibutyl phthalates, formaldehyed or toluene.” Probably thinking, what does that mean? From what I noticed after trying out the nail polishes, there is none of that chemical-like fume that you would normally get in nail polishes.
On a serious note, Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP), Formaldehyde, and Toluene are the three ingredients in nail polish you should avoid, the “Toxic Trio” as many like it call it. This is why I love the Crabtree & Evelyn Nail Lacquer collection as they are completely free from it.
For clear close-up swatches, check out my other post here, where I will be updating frequently until all polishes have been swatched. But for now, take a look at my Pinterest page and let me know in the comments below which is your favourite shade. Are you planning on making a Crabtree & Evelyn Nail Lacquer purchase? If so, which colour(s)?
Oh and if you’re looking for a nail polish remover, I HIGHLY recommend their soy-based Nail Polish Remover Wipes. Absolutely the best nail polish remover I have ever tried! It may seem expensive but you don’t even need the entire wipe – I actually cut them in quarters – 1/4 of the wipe manages to remove all the polish off all 10 fingers.
Are you able to buy these colours online ?
Hi Karen, I believe since the brand relaunched in 2019, they have discontinued the nail lacquers. Here’s hoping they will bring them back in the near future. You can search around online for these but they will most likely be from a unreliable third-party.
