Pupa Lasting Color Extreme 040 Yellow Side

Hi everyone!

Today I’m showing you a nail polish by Italian brand Pupa and its new Lasting Color Extreme range. I got this nail polish free with purchase of the Extreme Primer + Extreme top coat kit. This is a hybrid top coat that is meant to cure under sunlight. You know I like this idea and I am testing several top coats that should work this way.

Pupa Lasting Color Extreme n. 040 Yellow Side is a bright yellow crème, lovely for summer but maybe better fit for darker or bronzed skin tones. It applies easily and it’s very pigmented.

I used it together with its matching primer and top coat. The finish is super glossy and I had no chipping after 5 days. This doesn’t mean my mani was still perfect. Instead of chipping it kinda cracked from the inside. I had several black cracks on my nails, I couldn’t feel them but they were obvious to see. It felt like the cracks were in the nail polish only, and not in the top coat. Kinda odd, isn’t it?

I have to test the primer + top coat kit again to understand if the cracks show up again. I will test them with different nail polish brands, too.

I like the nail polish though, yellow is so underrated.

What do you think about yellow nails?
