    Not what I had hoped for

    I received the CND™ Creative Play™ Nail Lacquer as part of the ChickAdvisor review club. I was excited to try a new nail polish as I would consider myself a polish snob. If I’m not paying to have my nails done, I typically purchase the best of the best usually not thinking twice about spending $20+ on a bottle of polish.

    Even if the Creative Play polishes were your standard pharmacy polish on sale for $2 I wouldn’t opt for it.

    The colour was pretty awful. A shade of pink I would have chosen when I was a little girl playing dress up.

    The application brush is round not flat as most polished now offer for easier application so it doesn’t go on the greatest. The smell is extremely toxic and very strong. I had a hard time breathing to be honest while applying. It also took more then 1 coat to get a solid colour (so you couldn’t see the natural white of my nail tip).

    I used the base, colour and top coat as directed and hoped that by doing so it would wear for a longer time frame. I applied the polish on a Sunday night and by Thursday almost every nail have chipped.

    I would never purchase this product nor would I recommend it.

    I would buy this product

    I love this color! I paint my nails all the time so I've had experience with lots of different brands. I found that this one went on great with no clumps or streaks and it dried really fast. Only needed 2 coats.

    Great coverage in one coat!

    I received this as part of the Chickadvisor Product Review Club

    I got the colour Crimson Like it Hot and it's a bright red shimmery color, quite christmassy. I really liked how opaque this one with one coat! I used this in conjuction with the CND Creative Play top coat and base coat and I found it dried quite quickly however not as fast as Seche Vite, but CND doesn't say this is quick dry so I was impressed by the dry time. It lasted a good 5 days for me, it went through the pretty tough test of disassembling a laptop and came through with a few scuffs but not chips! Overall I would purchase this again.

    Creatively playful polish!

    I recieved the shade Nocturne it up. It's a rich black shade, with glitter throughout.
    After applying your CND Creative play base coat, you will definitely need to apply at least 2 coats of this shade. When applying the first coat, it seems like you won't get a very good coverage, but after the second coat, it looks fantastic.
    The first coat of polish does seem to dry fairly quickly, which makes it seem like a blotchy application. Don't be scared though, after you apply the second coat, it becomes the rich dark shade you were hoping for. If you feel like a 3rd coat is necessary, go for it!
    Finish with CND creative play topcoat, and you will have a beautifully rich, shiny, sparkly finish.
    I did find that you do need a good 15-20 minutes of drying time after all those coats. I would suggest some quick drying drops of some kind to help speed things along.
    Overall experience with this shade was fantastic! I recommend trying out this shade of you tend to lean towards the darker shades.
    Have fun with your creative play polishes!!

    What a great nail color!

    Got to try the CND Creative Play Nail Lacquer for free. The best thing I can tell you is that the color is absolutely fabulous. The pigmentation is great. All the coats went on very nice and smoothly and I loved the fact that they all dried up very quickly. The only thing that I disliked is the fact that I would have appreciated if it would have endured a little bit more on my nails. It was chipped already on the first day. That was a bit disappointing.

    Fast drying base coat

    The CND Creative Play is one of the fastest drying base coats I've tried. It's thick so I know it's covering well. I would definitely recommend this product to others and will start buying it in the future. Thanks chick advisor for allowing me test this product!

    Nothing special

    I received this as a test sample. I received a red colour, called "CRIMSON LIKE IT HOT". The colour is rich and it did not need more than one coat. However, the polish started chipping after 3 days although I used the base coat and the top coat.

    Really cute

    I received this nail polish to try #gotitfree and I got the color ‘crimson like it’s hot’. It’s a really nice color, great for the fall and for the holidays. It has a little sparkle to it. It applies really nicely, and the base and top coat are great too. It dried really fast, which is a plus. Unfortunately it didn’t last very long, after the second day it chipped, but it was really nice. I would recommend for people who change their color often.

    Beautiful lacquer, but chipped quickly

    I used the CND Creative Play Nail Lacquer as part of a 3-part system. The "Crimson Like It Hot" colour is beautiful. Unfortunately, it chipped very easily, even the next day, although I had been very careful with my hands.
