Dior Nail Glow- worth the money?

[Tempnamelady]

I don’t like nail varnish, so I’ve been using an Aldi nail brightener which is pretty good. I’ve seen a recommendation for the Dior version and I’m wondering whether it’s worth the £20 cost?

I love Nail Glow. Healthy pink glossy nails in 2 coats. Dries quickly. I don't know what the Aldi product is like so I can't compare it.

I'm on my 4th bottle. It's brilliant, doesn't peel and you only need one coat. Other, cheaper products give the same effect but peel. I think it's well worth the cost.

It's one of my favourite products. So easy to apply and it lasts well. I've only tried the dior version though x

Three positive replies so early on a Sunday morning ! Thanks sounds like it’s worth the money.

I’ll add to the positivity
I’m on my second bottle and it’s great. Very high quality product, not a single negative from me.

I love it. Am half way through my first bottle and will definitely buy again.

And it's a great gift for those who want nice nails but hate the faff of polish and are totally cack-handed. The box is a thing of beauty. It does get a bit crusty towards the end of the bottle so needs to be kept upright - learnt this on bottle number 2.
The optical brightening is just right - looks like perfectly buffed nails whereas cheaper versions veer into TOWIE territory. No one wants overly whitened teeth or nails IMHO.

Yes this is my favourite nail product and lasts ages. Well worth the money.

I think the perfect description is : freshly scrubbed kitten ... but for nails. Gentle scrubbing obvs.
I read that once in Vogue - describing a young Kate Moss.

Yep that’s the look I’m after I think. Nail varnish just doesn’t work for my lifestyle ( lots of gym and dog walking ) .

Did anyone ever use Goodbye Yellow by Barbara Daly for Tesco? It was amazing, but was discontinued a few years ago. This sounds like it might be a decent ( if more expensive) replacement.

Bitterboy absolutely. Babs was ahead of her time. It peeled like a bugger though. I only repeat buy if a product is amazing and I really rate Nail Glow.

Another one here that uses and likes Nail Glow! I don't like the look of nail varnish on myself, so this is perfect.

Soaking bare nails in citric acid tablets dissolved in water helps to brighten them too.

I love Nail Glow. But I had a bottle that fell over in the drawer and it completely gummed up the lid and became unusable, so I agree with DameDoom - for some reason the bottles really don't cope with not being kept upright.

My nails did look lovely and pinky-healthy whilst I was using it, though!

Its great! I use it every time I apply a color on my nails. It helps to let your nails look healthy.

Another positive vote here. But only one layer for me, I don't like it with two layers, looks far too unnatural with a weird purpley tint. But one layer, fantastic.

I used to use Barbara Daly’s Goodbye Yellow too. I bought up a few cheap when they discontinued the range but now this is my (better) but more expensive replacement.

Could someone post a pic of the result?

I gave had the aldi nail brightener - think it is fab stuff for the money. Also, I bought an Essence gel base in Wilkos for pennies which has surprisingly turned out to be a lovely nail brightener too.

I love the sound of this stuff! I can't cope with chips in coloured nail polish but I would like my nails to look bright and shiny.

Does anyone know what the ingredients are like? I have very sensitive nails, I think; I had to give up polish because my nails started to lift away from the nail bed and have white patches- they cleared up when I stopped. I don't know if it was because of polish or the remover (acetone free) but I suppose with this product I would remove it less (as chips don't show).

Ingredients :)

I love it. Perfect when you want your nails to look neat/groomed/shiny but haven't the time/energy to do a full manicure.

It chips eventually, but you hardly notice.

I have two coats on currently - a bit hard to see, though!

Dried my nails out.

Thankyou Ilovecherries for the ingredients! Although I don't actually know how to interpret them or if they might be kinder to my nails than the ones in other polish.

If you can get your hands on a bottle of Orly in Beverley Hills Plum, this gives a lovely polished glow to your nails and doesn't peel. It looks like clear pink in the bottle but gives a shiny glow once applied. Makes your nails look nice and manicured without the worry of chipped colour.

Oops meant to say that it only costs about 6 or 8 pounds so you can get similar look to Dior nail glow without the hefty price tag. It lasts forever and doesn't go gloopy either.
