I am just getting to try CND thanks to ChickAdvisor! I was given the opportunity to review these 2 CND Vinylux Products: CND Vinylux Weekly polish in TROPIX and the Vinylux Top Coat. A quick search and this basket is a $24.00 value, thank you CND!
Here is my review on both of them, I #gotitfree but I’ll always be honest!
CND Vinylux Weekly Polish in TROPIX
CND Vinylux Weekly Polish will last longer – but not a week.
I am hard on my polish. I wash dishes by hand every day, sometimes twice. I do like to paint my nails, but it’s often for a specific outing because they wear off so quickly. That said CND Vinylux has been way better than my usual polishes. I’m really impressed. I do have some chipping after 24 hours, but the dishes I washed yesterday were longer than usual. I have a similar colour similar to Tropix in a cheaper polish and it is so streaky. This CND was so much easier to apply and it looks super professional. That said I’m not huge fan of the brush; I did have a stray hair fall off already after only 1 use.
Love that the polish is free from 7 chemicals, including formaldehyde, resin and lead.

CND Vinylux Weekly Top Coat
CND Vinylux Weekly Top Coat will last longer – but not a week.
In the instructions of this top coat it says to clean your nails using a CND nail scrub, which was not provided to me to review. I did clean my nails, but I did not use the recommended product. I applied 2 coats of polish per instructions and a single layer top coat. I didn’t use it on its own or try it with an alternative product, but I loved the combination with the polish. It definitely lasted longer than I typically expect my polish to last. I would like to try this again with the nail scrub that they recommend. I think that would increase the endurance.

I really like the products, I think the biggest selling feature for me is the 7 free from chemicals. (Free from: toluene, camphor, formaldehyde, phthalates (DBP), formaldehyde resin, xylene, or lead.) A close second is that extra endurance. Thanks CND & ChickAdvisor for the opportunity to try these awesome products, I’ll be recommending them and buying them in the future!
After 24 hours and 2 times doing dishes, without gloves, my usual polish would be 3/4 gone by this time. After 72 hours, I have the same amount of chipping. I would like to try this again with the nail scrub that they recommend. I think that would just take it even longer.
