Nubar Nail Lacquer in Brown Rose (15ml) is formaldehyde, phthalate & toluene free. The nail polish has a thin brush which requires a few strokes to cover the entire nail. The texture of the nail is thin and easy to apply on the nails. To achieve maximum colour, I had to apply 3 coats of the nail polish. I applied a top coat as well to seal the colour. This lengthened the drying time for the polish. However, once dry, I had a beautiful rich shiny colour on my nails. I bought this nail polish on sale at Clicks for under R30. With a good top coat I can go for a week with the nail colour.
