Soigné Botanique nail polish review.

I want to introduce you to these gorgeous nail polishes.
Just take a moment to appreciate the packaging. Its stunning.

I purchased these at the beauty show in London at the beginning of October. Ive had these about 2 weeks now and I am obsessed.

Normally these polishes retail between £11-£13. 

They are a gel like polish but no lamp needed. 

They have approx 30 regular colours and they also have limited edition ranged. 

I purchased the winter 2015 limited edition set, a base coat, top coat and a neutral shade that I can wear for work. The winter collection is called Laquer de chocolate and contains a British racing green, a blue toned purple, a gold, a chocolate brown and an oxblood shade. 

The colours are highly pigmented but not too thick. 
The base and the top coat work so beautifully with the polishes the end result looks truly professional. They set very well, no smudging or peeling. 

I am always using my hands. My hands are in and out of water constantly and I am always typing and bashing my nails. These colours last a good week on my nails before they start to chip. I'm happy with that. I tend to use a lot of BarryM polishes and I do like them but you can see a difference in quality.

I did not pay the full retail price. I got the set of 5 for £15. For the base, top coat and nude I paid £13. I saved so much on these. However, these are worth the price tag. I've used Essie and for me and a friend of mine they always, always chip! By the end of the day I need a new manicure. 

Obviously these are not as long lasting as a gel polish using a light but in my opinion they are less damaging. The oxygen base which I purchased helps the colour to last longer, it also allows oxygen to permeate the nail bed, encouraging strong, healthy nail growth and increases keratin, cross linking with Urea and Minerals. Containing Neem oil for antioxidant and antiseptic, the polish refines nail texture to hide ridges and imperfections and prevents colour from staining your nails.All of their polishes claim to contain up to 85% plant origins. Free from Formaldehyde, Toluene, Dibutyl Phthalate and Camphor. They say they are cruelty free and chip resistant. I am not strict when it comes to only using Vegan products but it is nice to know that the products are cruelty free and predominantly plant based. The idea of using something less damaging is always attractive. I've blogged before about damaged nail caused by acrylic and electric nail files. For me having nice natural nails is the goal.

The polishes are all full size bottles containing 10ml of varnish. The brush is flat and has a squoval shape. I like this shape because it creates a nice smooth shape around the cuticle. 

Overall I give Soigné 5*.
