Nail Lacquer

I'm what I'd call a nail polish collector - I have a very healthy collection of polishes from all brands including Chanel, Dior, Deborah Lippmann and then more boutique brands like Rescue Beauty, Cult Nails and Smith & Cult. I saw many reviews on blogs for the Tom Ford polishes and went ahead and purchased two recently - Bitter B*tch and Toasted Sugar. Toasted Sugar was fine, not special but fine however Bitter B*tch was a streaky mess. First coat stunned me but I thought ok, this might look better with the second and while it was passable if you didn't look closely it was still incredibly streaky. Wear has been fine, I'm three days in with just the most minor of edge wear but even so, I think I'd go for a Lippmann polish before buying another Tom Ford polish.

for $35 Tom Ford should also put in consideration the quality of the bottle. The top broke off when i was closing it, causing it to spatter and spill on the foot of my coffee table, the carpet and a few spots on the couch. :(

I recently bought "Bitter B*tch" from Tom Ford's line of nail polishes. I love dark colors, as they accentuate my long nails and make it really feel like a manicure happened. As a nail tech, nail polishes usually don't last over 2 days on my nails without peeling off and chipping and melting at the edges. Let me tell you that this polish has been on already for 4 days and the only chip I got was from the spot where I broke my nail. The rest has been on like cement and I get CRAZY amounts of compliments on the color. The first coat looked streaky when applied, but once the second coat came on, I immediately fell in love with the color. It does not darken or fade over time, nor does it shrink (bound to happen with darker colors). Love love love this polish, will be buying more AND recommending to all!

It chips. It chips on the same day I put it on. It chips faster than any other cheaper nail polish I have. For the money I paid, I expected it to last a least a couple of days. But hours after I put it on, it is ruined. I tried with and without base and top coat, and it makes no difference. After reading the reviews it seemed I had finally found a good one, but it was not the case. I won't compare to other nail polish I have, but I have cheaper and just as expensive ones that worked better. Also I would like to ask that I got the color Bitter B itch (funny Nordstrom does not let me write the color!). It is just a dark brown. Maybe my monitor didn't help, but I thought it had a touch of purple, but it doesn't. Also, with a color like that, all the chipping is even more noticeable. I DO NOT recommend this polish.

I got Show Me The Pink, and Pink Crush and I like the colors but was disappointed with the formula. These two were my first Tom Ford nail polish purchases...other high-end nail polish brands I love are Dior and Chanel and Deborah Lippmann. I'm definitely not opposed to splurging on nail polish. But I feel like the value just isn't up to par with Tom Ford. Both colors were obviously meant to be opaque (because they're very streaky so you can't wear them sheer) but the polish isn't opaque enough to hide the streaks. I could still see streaks after 3 coats. The streakiness and coverage feels like something I would expect from a grocery store or drugstore brand - not a high end brand. For $35/bottle, I feel like they should be able to make a beautifully smooth, self-leveling, one-coater. I bought Deborah Lippmann Love Story at the same time when I bought these, and the Deborah Lippmann Love Story polish was just that - a smooth, self-leveling, one-coater. The only reason I didn't return these two colors is because I do like the shades. They're both flattering for my skin tone, and I have trouble finding flattering nudes so I didn't want to keep looking. I have light/medium skin with lots of warm peach undertones. I find most nude polishes look too gray on me, but these colors don't have that problem at all. I like the colors, when I have the patience and time for 3 coats of color + a leveling top coat that smooths out some of the streaks (like Zoya Armor) + a fast dry top coat because Zoya Armor dries so slow. I just don't usually have the patience for 5 coats of anything. So I don't wear them very much.

I just bought four colors of Tom Ford nail lacquer. Smoke red, Plum Noir, Viper, and African Violet. Oh, my goodness...they are WOW. I love Chanel nail polish, and have bought it for years, but these colors from Tom Ford are exceptional. They go on beautifully, and the colors are so gorgeous. Every woman should pamper herself with these lacquers. I have never had a Tom Ford product before, and this is just the best surprise. You will not be disappointed, and thank you Nordstroms for introducing this product to me.

This is the best nail polish that I have ever used. Other brands polish usually gets dry after being used for half year( Chanel, Dior, Lancôme). But for this one, I have been using for more than 8 months and it’s still not getting dry !!! Plus, it smells nothing weird and super easy to remove, and Never damage my nail. There is a reason why this one can sell almost 40 dollars. Super good quality!!

I am really glad I got this polish. I feel like the mixed reviews put me off a bit, but this is one of the better nail polishes I've purchased. I normally use Chanel's Ballerina which I feel is one of the best nude pinks on the market. Sugar Dune has a similar opaque-with-one-coat quality but has a slightly less pink tone to it, making it a more universally flattering nude polish, I think. This also has a kind of self-leveling formula that is nearly foolproof. It lasts a long time ( I work a lot with my hands and this lasted a whole week for me with my Chanel topcoat - that might say more for the topcoat than this formula, but hey....) I would definitely recommend this, especially for people who find traditional nude polishes to be too pink or too beige for their skin tone.

The first bottle of Tom Ford was a gift. I thought it a bit expensive but one just simply thanks the giver.... Then I tried it, oh my gosh it wears like enamel paint. I have natural nails, no acrylics, and polish starts to chip in three to five days (no matter how I am careful, use a base coat, and a good top coat). This polish wears for a good week to 10 days without chips and looks beautiful. I am now on my sixth color. I tried going back to my other polish, but I 'm spoiled, I only want to use the Tom Ford polish. I even take it with me to my nail salon for them to use.... I use a good base coat called CND Sticky Base Coat--it is the best--and I use Out The Door Fast Drying Top Coat by INM--again the best top coat ever. Two coats of Tom Ford polish and you have the most beautiful nails and they last. Add a coat of the Top Coat mid week and you are good to go for a week to 10 days. I can even skip nail appointments and do them myself and they are beautiful. A request: Tom Ford, more colors please, So far they are all beautiful. Note they are just a tad lighter than the color in the bottle, but such fantastic colors.... I gave away all my other polish why bother going to the effort when they chip off--I am a TOM FORD FAN FOREVER!

Love Tom Ford for staying power, tasteful colors, and giving a good amount of polish in the bottle. Black Sugar goes on a dark brown different from the overlit picture, which shows kind of pink-brown on my monitor. I wish they'd shoot in natural light rather than under spotlights that wash out all the colors. Still, it's a nice neutral for very pale, slight yellow tinted skin. Office appropriate for the most conservative venues. I use the Chanel top coat for maximizing staying power and generally get a week out of it with short nails and heavy keyboard use.

Hmm, contrary to most of the other Tom Ford make up items, this was a big disappointment. I purchased the color in Jade, and it looks very pretty from the bottle, very true to the picture shown here, but it's far from what you get on your nails. The color is very sheer and does not layer well, it streaks. I had hard time applying it, rather in blobs and messed up a lot. If you try to apply thinner layer, you will get streaks and will have to come back and apply additional coats to cover those. The color didn't last very long, I had a a peel next day. Also the glitters that are so attractive in the bottle do not even show up on nails. You get very dark color with a hint of green. Too bad, wanted to like it.

This polish would be fine if it were $10 polish. But for me doesn't meet any of the requirements for a higher-end polish. I'd expect long-lasting, built in shine, rich streak-proof layering, ease of application. Instead the formula is incredibly streaky and not long lasting (i have sugar dune). The shades are pretty great which is why I didn't give it one star. But I'd never buy another one. especially with the alternatives out there. Dior and chanel are amazing on all the above points at similar prices.
