Maybelline Color Show Go Graffiti Nail Polish Green Graffiti 804 Review

I often dreaded to wear pastel shades, but this summer I have been experimenting a lot with pastel mint, orange, and other colors. Well, life is too short to wear boring simple nail colors and when you can have the whole Maybelline Color Show Go Graffiti collection at your disposal, you just can't stop exploring more and more with every passing day. Today I am here to review the shade "Green Graffiti" from this range. All the nail varnishes I reviewed from this range have been amazing and I am sure you guys are expecting the same from this as well. Does Green Graffiti shade prove to be another excellent one or is it not up to the mark? Let's find out in the detailed review.

My Experience With Maybelline Color Show Go Graffiti Nail Polish Green Graffiti 804:

Packaging: The graffiti packaging is the exact similar packaging like all the Color Show variants. It comes in a thick transparent cylindrical glass bottle with an applicator attached. The name of the shade is carved on the top of the cap. Overall, it is a very cute and adorable packing for a nail art.

Shade: Green graffiti is a light pastel green base with peachy orange, blue hexes, and micro white dots. On one hand, the base color is very subtle, perfect for summer and spring while the hexes and dots gives a sweet touch of nail art.
Texture: The texture is a semi-thick consistency of a nail varnish and can be applied without a top coat as well. The hexes and dots are sometimes a bit stubborn but can be controlled with a bit carefulness. The nail color has a very gritty finish which I didn't like. The applicator brush is good with medium sized bristles for accurate application.
Pigmentation: It requires three swipes on my nails, the color goes opaque and can also be buildable up to 4 layers for the perfect opaque touch. I didn't quite like the pigmentation as it takes a lot of layers and still appears slightly uneven.

Staying Power: Staying power is as impressive as the nail color. It stayed on my nails for a week and I removed it after that as I got bored of the same nail color. Within that week, I hardly noticed a chip on a couple of nails but nothing major. The removal is an exasperating task as the color is easily removed, but the hexes and dots create a major fuss.
