Girl Stuff Nail Polishes - New Favorite!

37 Comments

I know I've been going on and on and on about these nail polishes on Facebook and Instagram. 


Let me tell you why :)

I got introduced to the brand Girl Stuff a just a few months ago, but it actually had been around for years already. Girl Stuff doesn't only carry regular nail polishes but also washable polishes (for the kids) and even magnetic polishes (new). These nail polishes are made in France and imported here to the Philippines. One of the great things about GS nail polishes is that they are free from the so-called 'Big 3' potentially harmful chemicals that are usually found in nail products - toluene, formaldehyde and dibutyl phthalate. 

Ingredients list

With that, Girl Stuff nail polishes are claimed to be safe to use even for kids and pregnant women :)

I'm not sure of the exact number of shades that Girl Stuff currently has, but they do have a good color selection. They have solid colors ranging from neutrals to pastels to fun bright shades and darker ones. They also have frosty and shimmery ones, even glitters. But still, I am hoping for Girl Stuff to expand their selection even more. The more, the merrier (I will be). Haha ;]


Another thing that I like about these nail polishes is their packaging. As you can see, the bottles are not like the typical ones with the circular base, making these ones easier to store! They take up less space in my organizer when placed together side by side.

I currently have seven shades from their regular polish line.

L-R: Avo Loco, Pretty Pink, Lov Lav, Blues, Electric Blue, Fireworks, Jade

These nails polishes have pretty nice formula - not too runny, not too thick. They go on smoothly, and they're not streaky. It usually takes me two coats to get a nice, even finish. Some of the shades are opaque enough for my liking in just two coats, but some are sheerer than others. These don't chip easily as well, and they don't leave my nails yellow like other local brands' nail polishes. I still use a base coat, though, just to make sure. My favorite shades so far are Avo Loco, Pretty Pink, Lov Lav and Jade.

T (L-R): Avo Loco, Pretty Pink
B (L-R): Lov Lav, Jade 
Ahhhh, such nice shades, they are!

I'll post more swatches next time. I've already posted about some of these polishes, though. You can check them out by clicking the links below :)

You might be wondering now how much these nail polishes are and where you can get them. Don't worry, these are pretty much affordable at P100 per bottle for the solid colors and P140 for the highly frosted/glittery ones. They're available at SM and Rustan's department stores (Children's Accessories section) and at the Girl Stuff nail polish kiosks at SM North, Megamall and MOA.

    Totally agree with Mich. Your hands/nails should be a model for a nail polish brand. I'm a nail art/polish junkie yet di ako maiapply ng maayus yung nail polish ko. Chamba2x lang. haha >.<

    Wow, cool. I've only tried Orly a few times, though, so I can't really compare. But longevity-wise, these GS nail polishes don't chip easily on my nails :)

  27. AyaMay 7, 2013 at 7:51 PM

    Right! I haven't experienced streakiness nor bubbling with these polishes. Always smooth ang finish. Thanks, Ms. Angel! I have them shaped sa salon at least once a month then maintain na lang 'til my next visit. Hihi

    Not much a fan of the packaging :| But the color selection are a lot so I think that's cool! :) And for the price, can't complain much about the packaging. How long does it last on the nails before it chips and fades?
