Piggy Paint Make it Last Giftset, 2-Piece

OMG! I bought the colour to test first, before investing on base and top coat. The skin allergies I developed overnight are severe. I can't even hold a bottle of nail varnish without my whole face flaring up and being completely swollen. So I tested a pink colour fisrt to make sure I didn't have an allergic reaction before investing on this duo as they are not cheap. And voila! No allergy. And yes. The colour without the base and top coat chips away within hours. I tested this on Tuesday night (today is Thursday) and it is brilliant! No chips yet, and no allergy. This has really changed my life as I thought I would never be able to wear nail varnish again. Piggy Paint has an "adult" line called sophi which is also brilliant. Same formula, adult colours!

my girls love nail polish, and I love the fact that if they bite it off and eat it it isn't toxic. It doesn't stay very long, but neither does any other nail varnish to be honest

It takes a while to dry if you dont follow instructions and do thin layers but otherwise gives a nice shine to nails and lasts reasonably well.

The brush is thin like for children's paint on the paper. The liquid is like white water does slip from the polish underneath. Leaves white residue.

Really like it. The base coat has slight odour but doesn't even look like anything is on your nails when dry. The top coat is odourless, great for sealing foils. I used it with mirror powder on my nails and it didn't mess up.

I thought I would leave my review with some tips on this Piggy Paint item since you're probably seeking to make things last longer than a couple days with this one. I have found that using this set, I can get my manicure to last a week and pedicure to last two to three weeks without chipping. It generally looks and lasts better than my other premium polishes. In fact, it is almost a pain to take off compared to the others! 1. Buff smooth and use the base coat. I've found it is hard to get off so sometimes I just use regular base coat/nail conditioner for convenience. Any bumps will show as the polish dries unlike enamel which can really glop on and almost self-smooth. 2. To get a smooth finish, use less paint. This polish doesn't self-level like enamels so do not not use too much. Once you get used to painting with less polish, it goes on smoothly just like the regular stuff. Think more coats, thinner coats. 3. Love, love the topcoat. It is super strong, use two coats. Very shiny, rivals my others but lasts longer. 4. Keep the nails short - like regular polish longer nails leads to more pressure and chips. 5. Make sure the paint is shaken thoroughly before use. The pigment doesn't suspend the same as with enamels so make sure it is mixed well. On the plus side, it also doesn't suspend air bubbles like enamels do. 6. Use a hair dryer, like they say, or do it before bed so it has time to cure. I have done this but also been too busy to do it and it still lasts nicely. I've found the Piggy Paints with some sparkle go on more smoothly, e.g. All that Razz and Sometimes Sweet. I'm really impressed with the quality of these paints. I wash my hands at least two dozen times a day with a toddler. This stuff really lasts, and like I said - it is tough to get off! Edit: I wanted to add this about chips - I do sometimes get chips after a couple days on my pointer fingers. Piggy Paint fills chips better than regular since it isn't gloppy like enamel. Just spot fix on the chip, let dry and do a clear topcoat. Looks like new every time unlike when I try to fix chips with enamel.

Good nail polish for toddlers

I started using piggy paint on my daughter because she is special needs and it is hard to get her to let me to paint her nails! She sticks her hands in her mouth also also so I wanted to find something non toxic! I love that it will wash off if you spill it. I do recommend the base coat and the top coat because it does not last long as regular polish does.

Very good product
