So raise your hand if you are tired of using harsh chemicals to remove your nail polish? My hand is so high it’s touching the moon! As you can imagine, I was thrilled when Londontown sent me their gentle and moisturizing Strengthening Lacquer Remover.

Londontown Kur’s Strengthening Lacquer Remover safely removes nail polish with it’s acetone-free formula. In addition to quickly removing polish, it conditions and strengthens nails while doing so! Love that!

It’s so luxurious to be able to remove my nail polish without my nails ending up dry, and in need of moisture. Since I change my nail polish often, it’s nice to know that the Londontown Kur Strengthening Lacquer Remover removes my polish without ruining my nails.

I was wearing a bright blue nail polish, as seen here, and I wanted to switch to the silvery hue shown below. If you have ever switched from a dark polish to a light polish, you know your nails can end up a mess. Polish can get stuck in your cuticles, and it can smear on your skin. A light color will oftentimes not be able to cover up the residue left by a dark nail polish; and red polishes are the worst! Thankfully, my nail polish came off easily with the Londontown Kur Strengthening Lacquer Remover so I can had clean nails to go from dark to light polish! Love!

This is definitely my new go-to nail polish remover. Nothing else is so gentle on my nails! I can change my nail color with ease, and without worrying about drying out my nails from an acetone based polish.

The key to the perfect manicure is taking proper care of your nails; and topping off your color right! As you may have noticed, I paint my nails all. the. time.

This means not only can you feel good about purchasing, and using Londontown products, you can rest-assured they are healthy on your nails, and will keep them protected. Love that!

The most important part of keeping nails healthy is to protect them from the color you paint on your nails.

I painted two coats of Londontown Paddington Blue nail polish on top of the Londontown Fortifying Ridge Filler base coat and as you can see, the result is a smooth, streak-free color on my nails. If you are looking for a classic, closet staple blue, Paddington Blue by Londontown is a great hue! This color can be worn during any season, as it is roughly one shade darker than a royal blue. It’s so pretty!

This color isn’t available at a lot of retailers, so thankfully you can find Londontown Paddington Blue nail polish online here.

Londontown Protective Top coat review

I topped off my classic blue manicure with Londontown Protective Top Coat. This top coat is strong and shiny; adding the perfect, protective layer to help decrease the chance of chipping your manicure. Love that!

The Londontown Protective Top Coat is also made from a quick dry formula, so you don’t have to worry about your manicure getting dented or ruined if you have to use your hands soon after painting your nails. Love!

Fall 2018 nail polish trends: matte nails

Londontown Matte Top Coat

Have you noticed? Fall 2018 is all about matte nails. The matte nail is the hottest nail polish trend of the autumn season! I can’t wait to use Londontown Protective Matte Top Coat on any color of nail polish in order to give my manicure the perfect, modern look. I switched up my manicure the next day by adding the matte top coat over it, and after a couple of minutes, I had the perfect matte look.

Like the Protective Top Coat, the Londontown Protective Matte Top Coats keeps your manicure chip-resistant and offers a quick drying formula. I used the matte coat in the morning and then hit the gym thirty minutes later; no chips or dents. It was fabulous!
