LONDONTOWN Love lakur Manicure Set and Modern Chromance Valentines Day Nail Gift Set

Although this mani/pedi set would have been perfect for gifting, I kept it all for myself! The nail color was long-wearing and charming in a soft strawberry milk creme and the decales bold and enduring. The cuticle oil as well was exceptionally nourishing. PROS: + Long-Lasting Londontown Quality: I've been a fan of Londontown for ages and love their high-quality, long-wearing colors. This color lasted about 12 days for me with my Londontown base and top before it started notably chipping, about 7 without. The color of the polish is a glamorous and trendy light pinkish milk with soft translucent opacity for an elegant and ethereal look. When paired with the decals, the base color pops. The polish dries quickly and 1 layer was dry to the touch in 5 minutes. + Charming Decals: The heart-shaped decals stick on well and can be used without a topcoat but last longer with one. They may be a tad hard to remove from the sheet (fine tweezers are your friend here), yet retain their color for over a week without smudging or fading. The red hearts were most visible on the cream polish that came with this set; the white ones, not so much. I would recommend the lighter hearts on a bold Londontown red like Londoner Lover which I have and adore. + Nourishing Oil: The cuticle oil within this set comes with a handy roller to prevent the messes of dipping and spills. It rolls on well and is both nourishing and rejuvenating, all without being grimy, grubby, or a tad stinky like cheaper oils. I love the roller top for how easy it is to apply, but it's a bit hard to clean. + Sturdy Glass File: If you've ever used a glass file, it's nearly impossible to go back to a standard emery again. The glass file within this kit is one of a kind to the set and absolutely adorable as much as it is enduring. The sturdy and strong design is the perfect grit to shape broken nails and tough even on toenails, but gentle enough to lightly buff for basecoats or to smooth burs. + Great Gift Set: This kit has all you need for fun manis and pedis with quality products all at a great price. It's great for gift giving or treating yourself. CONS: - Roller Oil May Be Hard to Clean: The rolling ball of the cuticle oil can trap nail grit or other things on fingers and roll it back into the oil in the bottle. I accidentally used it after filing my nails and found out the hard way. To keep it fresh, I highly recommend using it after washing your hands and ensuring your nail edges are clean. Read more

This is a nice little gift set, though very much over priced. The nail polish, I must say, stays on and doesn’t chip easily. That being said, you only get less than half an ounce. It’s more of a sample size than anything else and definitely does not warrant the price tag, even with the few other things included. The nail file is of wonderful quality and etched. It’s very good. The decals are average, and the cuticle oil is just not something I use, so no report on that. Again, yes, the nail polish is wonderful, and yes, the file is exactly what one would hope for, but worth the asking price? No - there is just not enough in that little box to justify that price.

Very cute set, and I think this would make a great little gift for anyone who likes the barely there nail polish look and hearts. I feel you could take this out of the box and use it for other holidays, but it definitely says "Valentine's Day" in the box. I used the polish on my toes (not posting feet pics, lol) and I like that it gives my toenails a subtle hint of color, and for me I like this look better than bare toes. I usually do bold colors on my toes, but every now and then something simple like this can be nice. I love the heart decal stickers, whether you're doing a cute romance look, Valentine's, or even a gothic look I feel these are great for any of those. Or just stick some in cute places on bare toenails or fingernails and add a topcoat! I haven't tried the cuticle oil, mainly because of one of my dogs, if he smells something on my hands he will try to lick them, so I simply avoid things like oils or lotions. I'd rather be safe than sorry! I really like the nail file, but I've only used it a couple of times so far. I have no idea how long glass nail files are supposed to last, but I'm pretty sure a lot longer than non glass ones, so I am excited to own one that is super cute! I really have no complaints!

Cute nail kit, glad I got it on sale for $20 but the contents of the box were everywhere and the nail file arrived broke in half 😕 Read more

This is such a cute little set! I'm looking forward to trying out the nail decals, so I can't speak to their longevity yet. However, the polish is a perfect sheer nude, which is my favorite for when I want to grow out my nails a bit and strengthen them without using more damaging gel. (My nails are unpolished in the photo attached.) The cuticle oil also smells delicious, and honestly works better than I was expecting. It dries down fast, so your nails don't stay oily, but still moisturizes the cuticles nicely. The roller style is a nice detail, though I do think I'm going through it faster than I might with a more precise brush applicator. I love that the glass file comes with a little sleeve, and it works pretty well on one side, but the side with the hearts is a little more challenging, as the hearts don't have the same rough filing texture. Still works well though, and bonus points for its reusability. Considering the price of just a Londontown bottle of polish and a standard glass file, I actually think this is a pretty good deal! The packaging is lovely for a gift set, and it's nice to spoil yourself as well (as I did)! Would purchase again :) Read more
