Alix Quick Drying Neglelak

I painted my nails ten minutes before rushing out the door and they were completely dry by the time I grabbed my keys. The high-shine finish lasted almost a week without a single chip, which never happens with my usual polish.

The metallic shimmer actually shows up in daylight instead of looking flat, which I wasn't expecting at this price. Two coats dried enough to dig through my purse for keys about ten minutes later, no smudging.

Applied two coats during my lunch break and was tapping away at my keyboard within five minutes, zero smudges. The metallic shimmer is subtle enough for the office but definitely catches the light nicely.
