Dermelect was kind enough to send me two of their ME polishes for review. Be sure to check them out on Facebook for info on their Pinterest giveaway.
First up is Provocative. "A fabulously fresh fuchsia". Above is 2 coats with a top coat. It's almost neon-ish. IDK what happened to the spot on the tip of my pinky, I prolly dinged it or something.
This is Above It. "A breathtaking sky blue". Above is 2 coats with no top coat. I had to swatch this twice. I forgot to change my lighting settings on my camera the first time and when I was looking at other swatches to compare to what I'd taken, they all seemed brighter, almost neon, where mine were kinda dull. I swatched again, and noticed my pics weren't really that far off. This is a beautiful sky blue cream. The bottle matches the end result.
These dry extremely fast. Not instantly, but it doesn't take hours upon hours. I also like that they protect against UV ray's, I'm all about that.
Now to more info on these polishes, as well as the other shades....and where you can buy them.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The
‘Cure’ in your ‘Mani’ is at your fingertips with the 1st peptide-infused color treatments for fragile, weak nails.
Aptly
named ME, Dermelect Cosmeceuticals formulated and designed a 2-in-1
range of bright, beautiful crème shades coupled with a remarkable
manicure extending formula. Infused with ProSina, a pure protein
peptide extracted from New Zealand sheep’s wool, the lacquers deliver a
fast drying, high gloss shine while providing an unequaled level of
strength for stubborn nails to grow longer and more
resistant to chipping, peeling and splitting.
In
its debut collection, the ME range includes six lacquers with
eye-catching hues ranging from the brand’s signature red to a rich
lilac,
creamy sky blue and color of the year, tangerine.
HOW IT WORKS
The
first coat instantly bonds to the nail, while the second fuses with the
base coat to create a flexible web of color that resists chipping
and improves brittleness (patent-pending technology). The ME colors
combine fast drying, high shine, and a healthy ‘green’ dose of vitamins,
peptides, and moisture, offering a colorful solution to the
contemporary woman’s beauty concern—aging hands and nails.
For best results, two coats are recommended.
