Welcome back to everyone!
Today I will take a test on the durability of various polish brands with this article.
I kept these polish on my right hand for 12 days.
Together we will find out which one behaved better.
Let’s start!

Starting point and used polishes
These were my nails, just made the nail polish.
Now I will put the photos of the products, in order from the little finger to the thumb.
As you can see I have changed in the brands, so that it was a homogeneous test.
Furthermore, as bases, I chose to vary between glossy and opaque.
I also thought that the drops that help the drying process of polish could also have an effect, so I chose two brands.
In the past I worked better with opaque bases, so I thought the index and middle would be those with longer duration.
We’ll find out if I was right.
11/19
Polishes are known for the fact that they chip very easily.
In fact, as you can see, the thumb was the first to chip, although I had paid close attention to sealing the nail polish on the tip.
11/22
After two days, even the medium and index, which were the ones I hoped for the most, had two large chips.
The thumb was no longer sealed, so the polish slowly ruined more and more.
The little finger and the ring finger instead remained the same.
Most likely the first three fingers were ruined first because they are the ones I use most in everyday life.
I also thought that the thumb would have lasted longer, because in my experience polishes with glitter have more resistance than those without.
11/25
As the days go by, the first three fingers present less product, losing adhesion, almost leafing through it, especially the medium one.
The little finger still resists, it’s a bit ruined because I used glue without gloves.
The ring finger also looks perfect but it can be seen that it has a very small chip on the right corner.
11/28
On this day I decided that I would end the test, because 12 days had already passed, when a polish in general remains beautiful for 1 week.
This is the final situation.
The ring finger is almost perfect except for another chip on the left corner and you can see the first three fingers with your eyes.
The little finger is still perfect.
Final considerations
I have to admit that I am disappointed with Essence’s All in one Ridge filler base.
I thought it would be the one with the best performances, instead it turned out to be the worst.
I am amazed, on the other hand, by the glossy SOS power Repair base by Essence, which I used on the ring finger, which did not present major problems.
Surely its duration will have been influenced also by the glitter above.
The thumb had the behavior I expected.
The little finger gave me satisfaction instead.
I used a Layla polish that has a particular formulation. It’s called 3.0 Hybrid nail polish.
It says it lasts even 15 days.
Initially I was skeptical, I didn’t think it was true what he promised, but I changed my mind.
The little finger was the only finger that didn’t have chipping problems, and I think it’s also due to the base that didn’t lift.
I used a shiny base, Triple Care by Essence.
Obviously this is a test based on my nails. These products may have another hold on nails and a different lifestyle.
Furthermore some fingers of one hand are used more often than others, this also affects the duration of the enamel.
Ranking
Based on the combinations of polishes you saw at the beginning, I will create the ranking.
5th place – Middle
4th place – Index
3rd place – Thumb
2nd place – Ring road
and in first place of course .. the Little Finger!
