A dupe for Chanel Riva.....is Wjcon N.170

Lately, I have been craving nail polishes - along with ice cream, shoes and sunglasses. I cannot stop looking at them online, in stores and have to control myself not to buy too many especially when it comes to nail polishes. This week I bought 2 nail colours from Wjcon; you can see my haul here. Today I decided to wear one of them, and since I love it so much I want to share it with you.


This nail polish has a pearl and shimmery finish, which is usually something I don't like in nail polishes. In fact, I prefer a satin or matte finish with a shiny top coat on. For this nail polish I made an exception as it's the prettiest light blue colour I have ever seen. I love it so much, and since the moment I started applying it I couldn't stop smiling. So the colour is great. But what about the consistency, application and lasting power? For a pearl finish this nail varnish has the perfect consistency. With all the pearl nail polishes I have tried, except for the Kiko Satin Beige, I have had problem whereby the nail polish is too sheer and you need several coats to build it up to a pretty visible colour. Also many pearl nail polishes do not apply evenly on the nail, leaving certain parts lighter and others darker. So the consistency is great as it's not too liquid but neither too tick, and it's not too sheer. This makes it easy to apply and with 2 light coats I achieved a great result. Applying it wasn't messy at all, as it seems to me that the brush has the perfect size. For lasting power, I will let you know in my next post featuring a Wjcon nail polish.....
And to makes things even better, it's the perfect dupe for Chanel Riva (consider that the Wjcon nail polish is much lighter in real life than on camera). 


I am definitely going to purchase more from this brand. I am already planning to go swatch nail polishes to find a nice strawberry red and a peachy nail colour. 

STAY FAB
