Maybelline express finish nail polish range has 22 shades to suit every mood and every occasion. These polishes are formulated to meet our fast-paced lives. They claim to dry within 40 seconds and provide shine and style to the nails. But do they really do that? Read further to know my experience with Fuchsia fun shade from this range.
My Take on ‘Maybelline Express Finish Nail Polish Fuchsia Fun 222’
Fuchsia fun is a pretty mauve shade. For the naming convention, I expected it to be a bright pink or an ideal fuchsia color but it came out to be muted mauve nail polish. The plus point of that is it can be easily worn to office or for professional meets without giving a loud impression. It is a perfect summer color that will make your hands look cheerful. But before purchasing it, I would suggest you try the tester as it does not look like it will suit all skin tones.
You can wear this polish without a base coat as it does not transfer any pigmentation to nails. In my opinion, this is a good thing in times of rush. The other plus point of its application is it dries quickly. I won’t say it takes just 40 second (as mentioned on the website) in drying but yes the drying time is less as compared to other nail polishes.
For color payoff, one coat does not provide an opaque nail bed. You will require 2-3 coats to see good coverage. And the more coats you apply the longer it will take to dry in contrast to the 40 seconds claim. Also, while going for the third coat you have to handle the brush carefully otherwise you might end up with streaky nails.
It gives a non-streaky finish which is neither pure matte nor pure glossy. But if you want any of those you can always top it up with either a glossy top coat or a matte polish. For clean application, allow your nails to dry before applying another coat.
As far as the staying power is concerned, it stays intact for maximum 2 days. After which, it starts chipping off the tips. Being an express finish nail polish I also expected to stay it that ways for a long time but alas it lost its shine after day 2 only.

Final Word: Maybelline express finish nail polish fuchsia fun nail polish dries quickly and provides a semi-matte finish. As far as the shade is concerned, it is a nice summery shade but won’t suit all skin tones. Next time, I would prefer to try a more pigmented shade as that will require less number of coats for opaque look, and in true sense will be a nail polish to meet with our fast-paced lives.
