Honeybee Gardens Water-Based Nail Enamel, Wild Fire, Matte Bright Red With a Hint of Orange, Eco-Friendly, Odorless & Vibrant Polish, 0.5 fl oz

Was hoping this water-based polish would be good and it's great! I'd given up on nail polish the past couple years after learning how toxic most are. Happy to find this type and to find it long lasting, beautiful. Got good coverage in one coat and it's stayed on over a month, no problem. Will buy more colors now. Wonderful.

Pretty color. It chips pretty fast but I’m glad it doesn’t contain all the harmful chemicals.

This is, without a doubt, the worst nail polish I've ever used. I have switched to non-toxic nail polish a few years ago. I have never had a high expectation of a more natural nail polish to last on my nails a long time, and for that reason I only use nail polish on my toenails. Everything I've used, except the Honeybee Gardens polish, lasts at least a few days (most a couple of weeks) before the polish starts to come off or chip. This one from Honeybee Gardens was chipping off the very next day, after I applied it the night before. So it didn't even last 24 hours! I reapplied some nail polish to cover up the chips but it just kept chipping off. To make it worse, when I tried to remove what was left of the polish with non-acetone polish remover, it would non come off!! I ended up having to use 100% acetone, soaking my nail with it for a while and then scrubbing at it to get the nail polish off, all of which defeats the purpose of using non-toxic nail polish. And even then I had to use a nail scrubber to scrub off the bits of polish that were still stuck to my nails. I never want to go through this again, and will never use this nail polish which means that this was a complete waist of money for me and, obviously, a huge disappointment.

This does not hold up to even a little work with your hands. Great for kids who don't care if it chips off the first second after it dries. Strangely, if you WANT to remove it you will struggle. It takes about as long to remove as it takes to apply. I loved the color, the quickness of drying, and the slightly matte finish.

Pros: I've got several colors of this brand. The biggest plus to it is that the contents of the polish are as safe as you'll find on the market. The smell is pleasant and non chemical. It will remove with alcohol. Enough layers of the polish and I can peel it off if I have to. The colors really are gorgeous. The chemical list of commercial polish is unsettling, I put my fingers in my mouth sometimes, I don't want to risk eating any of it.It'll stay forever on my toes and that's generally what I keep painted all the time.If you are health conscious, it's a must have.Cons: Have to do touch ups daily on hands. I read somewhere that it's best to let it cure, meaning don't do the dishes right after painting it. So maybe paint at night before bed. I work as a painter, and use my hands alot around the house, so it doesn't last. I don't like haven't to fuss so much with my nails, so I generally only paint fingernails when I've got an event or something. It would drive me nuts to have to do touch ups all the time. So I've never kept polish on my hands because I've had that issue with both commercial and this brand.The clear coat of this brand is a good alternative for fingernails that have a heavy workload. After a week, it does yellow. Requires less maintenance on hands than the color, but still some maintenance ever 4-7 days.

I've been wearing Honeybee Gardens watercolor nail polish for almost 10 years, after wearing regular nail polish was making my nails crack and discoloring them. My dermatologist said to stop wearing polish or switch to a water-based formula, so that's when I found this product. I typically prefer lighter polish colors because they require less touch-up, but on a whim I tried "Surf's Up" for the summer. It's very true to color. Two coats and it looks just like the color of the bottle. Just like the description says, there is no smell to the nail polish, which is awesome, and it dries just as fast as normal nail polish. As for wear, I find that on toenails the polish can last an entire month without much touch-up. Fingernails tend to need weekly touch-up. And make sure to follow the instructions on application -- it is water-based, so don't do dishes right after painting your nails. As for ease of removal, I've never had any issues removing the polish (I see some other reviews say it is more difficult than regular polish). I always use their remover when I want to change colors, but supposedly you can also remove it with rubbing or grain alcohol. Their remover is great; it smells a little like vinegar, but I don't mind that smell!

I am so impressed with how great this nail polish is I was willing to have some issues to avoid the chemicals to have a cleaner nail polish for pedicures and I am so pleased that this polish has not shipped looks vibrant and beautiful and I know it’s much safer for me ! Thank you so much I’m definitely buying more colors !***Update: Using rubbing alcohol to take off the polish was extremely difficult I did end up using nail polish remover but that’s a temporary chemical that I can wash off right away so I feel there is still definitely a little chemical or chemical free advantage to this nail polish so I’m still very happy using rubbing alcohol to take off the polish was extremely difficult I did end up using nail polish remover but that’s a temporary chemical that I can wash off right away so I feel there is still definitely a low chemical or chemical free advantage to this nail polish so I’m still very happy with it!

I always love the timeliness of Amazon's delivery. That's anout all the positive comments I can on Honeybee Gardens Raspberry Sorbet nail polish. It is a beautiful color - in the bottle. It doesn't smell (that's why I gave any stars). I applied a water based base coat and 3 COATS and I could see streaks/unevenness. On two of my nails with cornstarch overlays, the color was even worse. I took a chance and went into Walmart and got the last Watercolors by Color Club Shell Yeah (almost the exact color as Honeybee's) on the shelf. Very happy with it - not so much with Honeybee Gardens.

Beautiful colour and consistency. Dries fast but didn't even last 24 hours on my nails before chipping pretty badly. I dont know if the base coat would make a difference . I would be fine under a top coat but I bought this to try and avoid those harsh chemicals.

Love this colour so much but unfortunately the formula fails pretty hard and just doesn't want to stick to your nails. After one day, it literally will peel off in large sheets. I have tried other nail polishes as a base and tried top coats but still no. Maybe you have to buy some of their additional products to make it work? I don't want to pay more though as it's already quite expensive! It just doesn't stick and it's too bad because the colour looks amazing!

I'm in love with that brand !Non-toxic and most important for me as a migraine sufferer: these nail polish are odorless.Very happy about that.

You need a base coat otherwise it'll peel

Die Lieferung kam schnell. Der Nagellack hält, was er verspricht - stinkt nicht, deckt sehr schön und hält gut. Bin sehr froh, endlich ein solches Produkt gefunden zu haben.
