YSL Rose Baby Doll Nail Lacquer

Double Photo TestI can’t say I’ve ever been that fussed about YSL nail polishes. Their Touché Eclat? Yes. Teint Touche Éclat Foundation? I’m onboard. But their lacquer offering? Well I could take it or leave it. But after the appearance of the Rose Baby Doll Nail Lacquer* in my grasps and post-painting it on, my nonchalant feelings towards the golden topped bottles have changed. It’s a one-coat wonder. A cuticle-wide brush deposits a slick, smooth, streak-free layer of colour and you’re done. Sandwiched between CND Stickey Base Coat and Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat and we’re onto a winner. Formula aside the colour’s on point too; now I may have instagrammed the poop out of the picture but the shade’s still accurate – a rosey, reddish pink that refuses to be pigeoned-holed into a particular seasonal category; warm enough for summer, but berry enough for a winter time fingertip.

At £18 (from FeelUnique) they’re up there in the CHANEL price bracket, but formula-wise these pip them to the post, easy. CHANEL’s colour selection, with the YSL formula? Now that would be the perfect polish right there.
