Sasatinnie Nail Polish

I found a brand of polish that is pretty cheap and decent, at RM3 per bottle (after discount, np:RM4), there's nothing much you can complain about!

Sasatinnie Nail Polishes from Sasa. It's their own brand and as stated on the bottle, the polish is made in France. They come in cute little mini heart shaped bottles with 5.5ml. Come to think of it, it's actually not that cheap, as a full sized bottle which is around 12ml from Korean cosmetic shops like Face Shop and Elianto is only going for RM6. But I have to say, the quality of this polishes is actually superb!

 The Little Minatures


This is one that I would like to highlight from the batch, Super Dolly Fantasy Colour Q34 (this is the larger bottle, price RM8 after discount, np: RM9) They don't have names for their polishes, just codes.

The first one, Q34, is a black polish with very fine shimmer in in, giving it a chrome finish. I bought this because I saw a similar China Glaze colour (can't remember the name) that I really liked. So I went rummaging the pile of Sasatinnie polish and to my luck, I stumbled upon this! However, comparing to the China Glaze, this has less silver shimmer, but it's the closest match I could find.

And what can I say, move aside all you quick drying polishes, we have a new winner!! This polish dries in literally seconds! I haven finish smoothing it out on my nail and it begins to dry, imagine. But that ain't good news, it makes the polish really hard to apply as it appears all streaky and uneven. It also has a really thin formula and only appears opaque after about 4-5 coats! But thank goodness it's quick drying, if not I wouldn't be ablt to stand waiting for 5 coats to dry.

See at the end of the first line, "Quick Dry"

It gives a matte appearance after it dries, which isn't my preference, I prefer gloss. So, I applied a layer of my Seche Vite

Ta-da!! *enlarge to see glossiness*

Overall, despite the many layers and the a litlle too fast drying, I still really like the colour, so it's well worth taking the effort layering it. After all, like I've said, it's quick drying, so it's pretty easy to layer.


Another one that I really love out of the batch is SPN104. It's a chilli red polish that is superb in quality and glides on super smooth! There aren't many cream polishes out there that are smooth but this is definitely one of them. Totally no streaks and even first layer is smooth.


This is after layer 1, yes, you did not read wrong, LAYER 1! Smooth ain't it? Pretty opaque too, but I still feel a 2nd coat is needed to give it the perfect finish.


That is the finished mani. In the above picture I applied a coat of Seche Vite, but even without a top coat it finishes really shiny too, and there's actually not much difference even without the top coat. However, I heard from friends that the gloss goes off really quick, expose your nails to a few wash and it's gone. But nothing a top coat can't save, and for RM3, it's well worth it's price!

Overall very impressed with the Sasatinnie range! Looking forwad to try other colours!


P.S. do pardon my poor manicure job, am a little lazy to clean it up. And also, the lighting in my room isn't very good, so it might not do justice to the pictures.
