    4 Stars Stylish grey nails - Maybelline Forever Strong Nail Varnish 30/12/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A high-shine colour that lasts really well

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Did not give 100% perfect colour coverage on a couple of nails

    Stylish grey nails for Graygirl - Maybelline Forever Strong Professional Nail Varnish Although I don’t always follow fashion trends, preferring to keep my wardrobe fairly classic, there are two trends that I decided to try this season. One was for a statement piece in red, and I was lucky enough to find a fabulous red coat at a bargain price. Another of this season’s trends that I found really interesting was grey nail varnish. I have seen models in glossy magazines wearing this colour, and I decided I would like to try it for myself. I did some fairly intensive online research, as I didn’t ... more

    4 Stars A handy varnish 05/03/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A good quality nail varnish

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Tricky to find

    Do you want chips with that? I love wearing nail varnish but I am also a bit of a lazy bones, and I do get fed up of having to reapply nail varnish quickly when colours start to chip. This is why I like to occasionally opt for a paler shade - you don't need to have 100% accuracy when applying, a few overlaps onto your skin won't matter too much - and you can get away with the odd chip here and there for a day or two before it becomes too noticeable. That is why I always have a few nice pale pink or pearl shades on standby when I want something quick, and don't mind a bit less drama. I have no ... more

    5 Stars Forever strong, forever there Review with images 11/06/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lasts ages, nice metallic finish

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Range of colours

    Introduction ---------------- I wear nail varnish nearly all the time due to the fact that my nails are stained and I need something to hide this! The main reason they are stained in the first place is because of wearing varnish but I don't know how to get rid of the stains so I just cover them with more varnish. The first brand I'd pick for nail varnish is Rimmel due to good past experiences with them, my second choice would be Maybelline, whose make-up I have always been a big fan of. About the Product ------------------------ I'm not very good at applying nail varnish and often end up with ... more

    5 Stars My Maybelline Manicure 23/06/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages So easy to apply, long lasting, no chips, good smooth finish, doesn't stain

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Limited range of colours

    I wear a lot of nail varnish and usually have a colour of some sort on my nails. Maybelline is a brand which I find to be generally very good for nail varnish and I have quite a few of their quick drying "Express Finish" nail varnishes. About 6 months ago or so I ended up picking up this Forever Strong nail varnish with some of the Express Finish bottles as I wasn't really paying attention. I wasn't actually really intending to try the Forever Strong but I am glad I ended up with it! Colours I have the colour Golden Brown which is a lovely metallic pale pinkish brown. I think it actually looks ... more

    4 Stars Is this Forever? 26/07/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Metallic Colour, Competitive Price.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not a great finish.

    ☼☼☼ Price ☼☼☼ This is available from Boots, priced at £4.99 however I picked this up for half that price at Ethel Austin which had a special offer on the varnish. §§§ Packaging §§§ Not a great deal to say about this other than as opposed to being ‘round’, the bottle is a slim ‘cuboid-ish’ shape. The lid is quite long and slim which is handy for application and I feel allows for a little more control. ☼☼☼ What does Maybelline say? ☼☼☼ ~ perfect precision curved brush. ~ rich colour and high shine. ~ enriched with iron and ... more

    4 Stars Forever strong clear 25/08/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Stays well, looks nice

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    I love nail varnish of all different colours but generally I only wear colour on my fingernails if its a special occasion as I think for everyday colour just doesn't work for me. I do however like to wear clear nail varnish on my fingernails so they have a bit of shine and a nice look to them. I have been using Maybelline Forever Strong clear varnish for a number of years now and really like it. It is described as a varnish with high shine and is enriched with Iron & Calcium. It also has something called silica in it which, according to an article I read is, "The chemical compound silicon ... more

    5 Stars A perfect nail polish 23/10/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lasts for ages

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Needs a biggercolour range

    While browsing in my local superdrug I came across this nail varnished in the clearance isle marked down to an amazing £2 for a 10 ml bottle of nail varnish. I have a few other maybelline products on my dressing table so I knew they were great value for money and so decided to purchase this. There are many shades available mine is ivory rose which is a very neutral colour and perfect for me. It comes in a small glass bottle as most nail varnishes do which is transparent so that you can see how much of the product is left. It has a screw top lid with the application brush attached to the lid ... more

    2 Stars Maybelline New York, Forever Strong, Pro, Nail Varnish - Shade 75 24/10/2012

    Advantages Advantages High Shine, gorgeous shades

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Never dries!

    I have the product "Maybelline New York, Forever Strong, 'Pro', Nail Varnish in shade 75 ivory rose. I absolutely adore the colour, but it is hands-down the worst nail varnish I have ever come across, bearing in mind I currently own 50 of various brands. It simply never dries! Tonight I applied 2 coats at 7pm, it is now 9.49pm and when I touched my nail lightly it left an impression, and when i pressed firmly (as I should be able to after almost 3hours?) it completely smudged. I have tried and tried to wear this varnish as the shade is so stunning, unfortunately no matter how thinly I layer it ... more

    5 Stars Perfect nail colour can be yours 30/03/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great price, lasts ages, lots of colours available

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None!

    no. of shades available: 18 --What does the promo say?-- "# Perfect precision curved brush # Rich colour and high shine # Enriched with Iron & Calcium" --Packaging-- Nice slender squarish bottle with a medium-sized black lid. The logo and product information is written on the transparent bottle in white writing. Nothing special going on there, though I do like how the extra layer of glass at the bottom of the bottle creates an effect of the varnish being suspended in the bottle. --Application-- Pretty standard stuff: unscrew the lid, allow any excess polish to drip back into the bottle, and ... more
