I love nail polish, but even 3-free formulas tend to irritate my cuticles. So much so that I just stuck with a no-polish and lightly buffed look for awhile.
When Clinique came out with A Different Nail Enamel, I decided to give it a try.
Clinique A Different Nail Enamel Shades
Gorgeous colors, sensitive skin appropriate, sounded like a great combo.
I tried out both Fizzy and Sweet Tooth.
- Fizzy is the color that appears in most ads – a gorgeous metallic nude.
- Sweet tooth is a very transparent pink that is akin to one coat of Essie Ballet Slipper, but not quite as pale.
THE Clinique A Different Nail Enamel EXPERIENCE
Both are great colors.
Fizzy shows goofs a bit more prominently than Sweet Tooth, which is understandable for a metallic. Granted, I am a complete klutz when it comes to home nail polish application. But Sweet Tooth has been my go-to color most weeks. And in does, in fact, last a week, which is great.
The Top Coat/Base Coat of the line is also great. First off, there isn’t much point using a sensitive skin formula polish and an irritating base/top coat, but this stands as a great product on it’s own.
CONCLUSION
If you like Essie’s Mademoiselle, definitely give Sweet Tooth a shot.
I’m going to reorder both tonight – Sweet Tooth was a nice light color for Summer but it’s time for something with a little more dazzle to it for the colder months!
