Independent reviews of experts in the beauty industry say that this type of lacquer is ideal for women who are going on a long journey and do not have the opportunity to update their manicure every few days.
Some users find the brush for applying varnish to be somewhat inconvenient, since its hairs are much less common than those of standard varnishes, which prevents uniform coating with the first layer.
Other users complain about the thick texture of lacquer and say that it is necessary to adjust to its ideal application.
