I just love having teenage daughters who also love doing their nails as much as I do as it means extra polishes for me to try out!
Pow Green by Maybelline is not a colour I'd have chosen off the shelf in a million years but when my youngest daughter bought it the other day, then appeared wearing it later on, I thought it looked amazing.......& that I'd be pinching it at some point to try out myself!
This is the first time I've used a Maybelline polish. I don't know why but it's a brand I tend to bypass as I don't really get on with their cosmetics & unfortunately, I didn't find the polish fared that much better either.
Colour-wise I can't fault it. A fabulous, zingy pale lime green, almost chartreuse really, the photos don't do it justice. But I wasn't in love with the polish itself. It was really streaky & thin on the first application & even with the second coat, it could've done with at least another, you can see my middle nail is quite patchy. I used my usual China Glaze Strong Adhesion base coat & Seche Vite top coat but it began to chip on the tips the next day....not good I'm afraid as I usually get 6 - 7 days from my manicures unless I remove it in order to change colour.
However, I will wear this polish again for a night out or occasion as I love the colour so much, I just know now not to expect it to last that long!
