Bench Paint Box Matte Nail Polishes - Lilac Ash, Rose Wine, Toasted Almond and Arctic Ice Swatches

Around a year or so ago, Bench (a popular clothing brand here in the Philippines) released their own nail polish line. I was pretty skeptical about it but when I saw these matte polishes, I immediately bought four of them. Hihi. I did a little research about the brand and they say that all of their nail polishes are vegan. Aside from having Keratin and being 3-Free, they're all not tested on animals and there are no animal derivatives added. I'm very happy with their vegan formula and I'm gonna show my swatches of these four matte polishes.

MATTE NAIL POLISH

Lilac Ash 11 mL
Php 58.00 / US$ 1.31


Lilac Ash is a metallic lilac nail polish that dries matte. I looove this color. I want to use this to paint my walls but I might be blinded by its metallic sheen. lol.

It was pretty opaque so I just used two coats for these swatches. I had minor brush strokes appear but from afar, it wasn't that obvious. Otherwise, everything went on smoothly.

MATTE NAIL POLISH

Rose Wine 11 mL
Php 58.00 / US$ 1.31


Rose Wine is a light pink matte polish with metallic undertones. It's almost like this old rose color that is just perfect for my skin tone. This made me go wow!
(*o*)

I also used two coats for these swatches. Now, I'm not sure if I should've shaken the bottle some more but I found these little solid thingies after application. They're very little so they're only noticeable in certain angles or lighting. Hmmmm, maybe I got a bad bottle or something... It's still pretty though.

MATTE NAIL POLISH

Toasted Almond 11 mL
Php 58.00 / US$ 1.31


Toasted Almond is a light brown matte nail polish with an almost metallic sheen. I first thought it was too light as it brought out my eczema scars and made them look pinker but I have to say I'm converted. This is the perfect nude polish for work.

I applied two coats for these swatches. Formula was amazing! I encountered no problems at all. Woohoo. I can't wait to use it again.

Arctic Ice is this icy blue matte nail polish. It strongly reminds me of ice skating rinks or icebergs. Brrrrr.. I feel cold just looking at it. Hihi.
(^^,)

I applied two coats for these swatches. I didn't have any problems with its formula too. Weeeeeee~
