Colorbar – Heavy Metal Nail Lacquer – Chrome Sapphire – Review

Hello! Today, I want to share this pretty Colorbar Heavy Metal Nail Lacquer in the shade Chrome Sapphire. 🙂

Last time when I visited Bombay (Mumbai) I was doing the relaxing activity – Shopping. Let me know how many of you find shopping relaxing! Well! As I was strolling around in the store I saw the Colorbar Counter. The newly launched Nail Lacquer Collections – Heavy Metal Nail Lacquer and the 24 Carat Nail Lacquer caught my attention. The beautiful metallic-shimmery shades were very attractive and compelling. I could not resist and picked a few shades from both the collections.

Product description on the website – Sparkle like a gemstone wherever you go! Embrace the richness of deep and heavy pearl toned shades that add character to your nails and give that heavy metal effect. The shades reflect the personality of the popular gemstones hand-picked to suit Indian skin types. The stark contrast of the shades against your nails make them look attractive instantly and they look like beautiful gemstones. The formula is intense yet fast-drying with deep intensity of self-pearls and high shine. In just a single stroke your nails are enveloped in irresistible and trend-setting metal shades of the future. What’s more is that the formula has an excellent drying time along with being 3-free, long-lasting, non-yellowing and chip-resistant.

There are 7 shades available in the Colorbar Heavy Metal Nail Lacquer collection.  Blue, purple, gold , maroon, pink and also black.  I picked up the gold one called Chrome Sapphire, as it was the only one that looked different and unique.  Besides it reminded me of some nail art designs. I mean the pure metallic gold that will actually look like liquid metal.

The bottle is sleek, simple and rectangular in shape. The cap is black with some wavy pattern in red and blue colors. The golden print on the bottle looks pretty and gives that metallic look which resembles the liquid metal inside the bottle. The brush is the regular nail polish brush.

The shade Chrome Sapphire – 004 is a beautiful metallic golden shade with that pearly metallic shine. The consistency of the polish is quiet liquid-y I mean thin. It applies sheer on first coat. Its not streaky and dries pretty fast. we need at least 3 coats to get the full coverage and opacity. Since it dries fast, I don’t mind applying 3 coats. The staying power is superb. I am pleasantly surprised at this formula which lasts up to 10 days without chipping.  

The color Chrome Sapphire looks beautiful like gold. As if we have dipped our nails in liquid gold. It is not as bright yellow as a 24 carat gold would look which makes it wearable. Sometimes I see a teeny-tiny tinge of green in here. I don’t know if its just me I am not sure. You will be able to tell that by looking at the pictures below. I have not used a top coat 🙂

I believe this bright and beautiful metallic shade looks beautiful on our Indian skin. However, it all  depends on our preference.  Applying one coat gives a metallic sheen to the nails that will leave people guessing whether you are wearing a nail polish or not.

Chrome Sapphire -the golden shade can be worn any time whenever you wish but it will look absolutely stunning during the festive season that has already begun. When we dress in our traditional colorful attire during Eid, Ganapati, Raksha-bandhan, Navratri, Diwali etc., this shade will match and compliment most outfits. However, I would prefer wearing this shade mostly at night as in the day time it is a little too bright. It can also be worn as accent nail or can even be used in some creative nail art design. I believe this shade may not be appropriate for any formal event. But, you definitely need to have a golden polish in your collection. These Colorbar Heavy Metal Nail Lacquers are now available at half the price. If you are interested in a particular shade this is the time to purchase.

Overall, since I have never purchased any Colorbar product ever and I am really impressed by the quality of these lacquers. Now I am intrigued to try some more. When I visit my Mum the next time I am definitely going to explore this brand. I have been browsing their website already 🙂 I see that there is a new collection available on Amazon. Have you tried the Colorbar Nail Polishes?

Which is your favorite finish and color? Let me know!

Until next time always shine and be bright and beautiful!
