SinfulShine is a new product from SinfulColors with rich color and superb shine. Claims that the finish is 5X more gloss than a patent leather shoe! SinfulShine is available exclusively at Walgreen's for a limited time for $2.99 These are in the same type bottle as the regular line of Sinful Colors with the exception of the shiny silver top, which I love.I received a bottle of SinfulShine from Influenster in my Sunkissed VoxBox in the shade Rendezvous. It's a beautiful mint green color, to me it looks a lot like, if not identical, to I Need a Refresh-Mint from Wet n Wild. I actually think that Wet n Wild is a little more shiny than the SinfulShine. You can judge for yourself in the photo below.
With the word Gel in the name of this polish, I expected the formula to be a little thicker than a regular polish, it is not. Seems to have the same consistency as a regular polish. It goes on very smoothly and it took 2 coats to make it fully opaque. Drying time is pretty good, first coat took about 5-7 minutes to try and the second coat took around 10-12 minutes. It does have a shiny finish, I didn't apply a top coat in the photo below, but with that being said I find that the claim of it being 5X more glossy than a patent leather shoe does not hold up.
For me the wear of SinfulShine, with the shape my nails were in when I used it, was great. Usually I'm lucky if my manicures last one day with out chipping. With SinfulShine I got about 3 days wear out of it before it started chipping. I'm sure if my nails were not peeling, I would have got longer wear before it chipped.
I'm really pleased with this polish and I would pay and extra dollar for it just because it lasted so long before chipping. Hopefully I'll get to a Walgreen's, as the closest one is about and 45 minutes away, before these polishes are gone. I think they should make them permanent and put them in Rite Aid stores as well.

Have you tried any of the SinfulShine polishes? What did you think abut them?
Wow! OK, I'll be on the lookout. Thanks for the review, Amy!
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome :)
DeleteI actually bought one of these only to get it home and realize that it's the EXACT same shade as Sinful Colors in Endless Blue from their regular line. I think they do have a few different shades, but overall, I think they just repackaged their old formula and charged a dollar more. They just don't seem shinier or all that different. However, they are still only $2.99, so the new shades might end up in my stash sooner or later anyway lol Thanks for a great review, Amy!
ReplyDeleteYou're Welcome :) The only real difference I seen was how long it lasted on my nails.
DeleteLooks great, but I agree it doesn't look as shiny as it claims...I got one of these also in a putty shade, so I'll be trying that this week!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing what you think about it!
