Londontown Lakur swatch & review

Hello ladies and gentlemen!

Tonight's blog is all about Londontown Lakur. 
I had the opportunity to swatch and review these beauties. C'mon, these are 5-free (Formaldehyde-free, Toluene-free, DPB-free, Formaldehyde Resin-free, Camphor-free), non-toxic, vegan, gluten-free & cruelty-free. These are literally just nearly perfection! You just wait to see what I thought about these!
From (L-R: Ring Me, Cheerio, Beau Of The City & a purple holo glitter)

'Ring Me' in 2 thin coats with no top coat. ^^ I found this formula so rich and highly pigmented that you could really go for only 1 coat application! I have an OCD problem when it comes to applying nail polish on my nails, so I went ahead with 2 coats. It dries absolutely beautiful really quickly and shiny all by itself with no help from a dry fast top coat. I mean, seriously.. Look at it! It is so squishy!! :D

'Ring Me' 2 coats, no top coat + MoYou London's Mother Nature stamping plate m-11 stamped with OPI 'Love.Angel.Music.Baby.'



This purple glitter is stunning.. It has micro gitters and bigger, purple holo glitters in it which is huge plus for me. I am a purple fan here!


'Beau Of The City' is also one of my faves. It is not like any blue that I own. It is so rich in pigment and smooth.. This is shown with 2 coats and no top coat. I also used here Zoya 'Anais' for the city buildings & China Glaze 'The Outer Edge' for the stars in the nights sky.

I know a lot of people who paint their nails like to apply a fast drying top coat over the color to help seal the nails but for this brand. It is so strikingly amazing that you don't even need to use one! It dries in no time if you apply your first layer thin enough. By second coat, as it dries, it leaves such a high pigment color with a beautiful shine and squishy look which I love! I am sold on this brand by the look of the bottle, lacquer, high pigments, high shine and drying time! It has been featured many times in the leading magazines with  Harper's Bazaar, Us Weekly, Shape, Allure, Marie Claire, Self, Lucky magazine, Cosmopolitan, Nail It!, Seventeen, Health & Essence. 

I've worn 'Beau Of The City' on my nails for 2 days because I absolutely couldn't stop staring at the beautiful royal, deep and rich blue.. Usually the 2nd day, the tips of my nails are either chipped or worn out. With Londontown Lakur, it is all so true as to what every magazine had to say about them! This nail polish is bottled up with all the good stuff.. Believe that or not! 

"The high pigment bold colors leave you with a long lasting wear. The formula is infused with Londontown's family remedy of only natural botanical extracts that include Rapeseed, Chamomile, Garlic and Vitamin B7 that helps nourish the nails and encourages nails growth." - Londontown Lakur
