SOPHi Non-Toxic Nail Polish, Water-Based, Low Odor - Winking of You

Lovely soft color. Two coats looks best with shine topcoat. Don't expect it to last as long as regular nail polish, but it does last several days if you keep your hands out of lots of water... just don't scrub floors, for example! The smell-free, non-toxic experience is worth it. I find it stays on best in summer. In winter I dry it with a hair dryer between coats which helps a lot. The SOPHI gel remover is a help, but like the polish, it's not as quick and easy as regular acetone removers.

I had big hopes that this was going to be a great non-toxic polish. It is not. I purchased several colors of SOPHi nail polish and brought to use for a pedicure at my nail shop. The pedicurist had never heard of it but proceeded to use it for my pedicure. She had to stop and start over with another polish they had in the shop because she said the quality was so poor that she couldn't work with it. Very streaky so she tried 3 coats but then decided this was not going to work so removed and started over with one of the shop's polishes. Since I spent the money on several colors I decided to use to do my own nails and found it impossible to remove once it has been on your nails for a while. I actually had to contact the manufacturer for help with how to get this off my nails. I was given some crazy instructions for removal including soaking nails in gel nail polish remover and using an emory board to scrape the nail polish off while the remover was on. The use of all these harsh chemicals cancels out the fact that this nail polish is supposed to be chemical free. Since I had no other option I tried what they had instructed and completely destroyed my nails and I still couldn't get the polish off. Their correspondence also stated that leaving the polish on for more than a week will make it very hard to remove which I thought was a bit odd. I ultimately put all the products together and mailed them to the company only to be told they could not reimburse me. I spent $80 on their products and $9 to ship it to them so was disappointed to hear this. From my experience I would not recommend this product or dealing with this company. Eventually and thankfully after some weeks of cutting my nails down to stubs and having new growth I am free of this horrible product.

I began using SOPHi Nail Polish about six years ago. After using odorous, toxic, and chemical-filled polishes, I began searching for a non-toxic option that came without the toxins and harsh smell. Through much research, I was able to find SOPHi Nail Polish and have been using it every month since. This company delivers a water-based, cruelty-free, vegan, non-toxic, and virtually odorless nail polish formula. SOPHi provides the customer with the confidence and satisfaction of having a beautiful manicure without harsh chemicals found in other nail polishes. The user can enjoy the process of painting nails due to the lack of noxious odor, and feel the joy of wearing the polishes, knowing that they are not harmful to one's body or environment. This brand of nail polish comes in a wide variety of colors, from light pastels to rich dark colors, and finishes such as glitter and crème. There is a perfect polish for everybody, whether you are looking for a classy, professional shade or a bright, neon glitter formula. The assorted colors and finishes of SOPHi Nail Polish are all low odor while looking just as good as regular, toxic nail polishes. It is amazingly easy to find your favorite nail polish’s non-toxic counterpart within SOPHi’s wide selection of shades and formulas. However, SOPHi Nail Polish is not as durable as regular nail polish without other products to supplement the performance. While the brand does sell a nail polish priming and sealing system, on its own, the colored polish does not last as long as standard, toxic nail polish does. SOPHi Nail Polish chips and cracks after 3-5 days of wear while toxic nail polish deteriorates after 7-10 days of wear. All things considered, I would highly recommend SOPHi Nail Polish. There is nothing like the confidence of freshly painted nails, and SOPHi Nail Polish provides that without any harmful chemicals. This nail polish is the best decision for your body and the planet when considering your manicure.

Love the color. Love the fact eco freindly. Doesnt last on my nails but I am learning.

No toxic smell, which is great. I also love the color. But it peels off so easily. once it's dry, it peels off from edge and all is gone.

I'm very disappointed in this colour. I am very particular about my reds. This is so off from the true shade it's not even funny. I almost returned it but I want to support a business that actually cares about the quality of product and the impact it has on the user's health! You should know though: This comes off very easily (like within two days) when I use a top/base coat from a different brand! If I apply it directly to my nail it lasts a bit longer! It does dry REALLY fast and smooth, like others have said! And It smells like kids nontoxic finger paint! Lol

I bought my first SOPHi because I am pregnant and don't want the horrible stuff most nail polish has. It is one of the best-rated polishes on the Environmental Working Group (EWG) Skin Deep Cosmetics Database. Using the polish alone will lead to chipping, as people have noted on here. The 'good' side of this is you can add more layers on top of the chipped polish and the new paint seamlessly covers the old nail polish because the product is water-based--so there's no clumps. The bad news is that most people don't want to be repeatedly painting their nails. In my case, I prefer knowing that I am not putting any reproductive disruptors on my nails so I just repaint. I am currently using the nail polish with the recommended primer and top-coat duo to ensure longevity and durability. I also bought the brand's remover because it is true that it can take time to remove the old polish. I've never used acetone to remove it, though. Before buying the brand's remover, I used Ella+Mila's soy nail polish remover and it works fine. You have to let the remover soak in for a few minutes (just like with Ella+Mila nail polish) and then it comes off. All in all, I do recommend this brand because it's a risk-free polish that requires just a little more work without the worrisome ingredients that the majority of polish has. Lastly, when applied to toenails the polish alone (w/o the primer and top-coat) does great and doesn't chip as frequently.

The image of this color strikes me as coppery/goldish with some shimmer. The item I received seems a dull brown. I have not used it yet, so cannot rate other than on color. I have now applied and the color looks more like the Boyfriend Abroad. Now, other than the color.. This is my first time using Sophi. I bought because of the low rating (lower is better) on EWG. I bought Skinny Dip Plus Chips, and the SOPHi Prime + Shine + Seal System . I followed all directions as instructed. I was willing to put in the time for my health. The first thing I noticed (other than being the wrong color) was that the polish was VERY thick. Super hard to apply 2-3 THIN coats when it comes out of the bottle THICK. I was not able to get a smooth coat because of this, when done I could still see brush strokes. Now, did I get a bad bottle, or are they all like this? I don't know. I'm sure this will also affect the drying time. It's been 1 hour and I am afraid to use my hands yet. As far as wear, only time will tell. I know I read somewhere that although you could use regular nail polish remover, Sophi stripper was recommended. I didn't want to put out the extra cash, so I will see how the polish comes off with regular remover. Well, 2 days later...good news and bad news. Good...I did not need to buy the stripper. Bad... this is because it started chipping and completely peeled off my nails. I will be returning this product.

I was looking for a nail varnish/polish that didn't have super strong chemical scents to them as they although look good they smell horrendous. I found this nail polish and honestly I'm staying with this brand. Sophi nail polish honestly doesn't smell like you're covering your nails with harmful chemicals it smells like mica powders, which isn't a terrible smell. They have a wide range of colours to choose from so I picked the colour lost in London which is a grey mauve and it's a really pretty colour. The mail varnish is a bit thinner in consistency so my advice is put thin layers on first then build up to cover the entire nail. It's a creamy like consistency as well. When it's on it dried very quickly so that was handy as I've a tenancy to do something trying to save the nails and end up the other polishes would smudge, the Sophi doesn't do that at all. It looks really good once it's dried off and has a good shine to it. It hasn't chipped at all and I'm usually hard on my hands so that's a bonus. The cost wasn't to expensive for the bottle size either. Overall is a real win win for this polish. Great bottle size, great coverage, great choice of colours, great price. I'm never going back to any of the other polish brands again. This is my new favourite that I'll be buying the other colours soon enough. I'll also be telling others to look this brand up to buy some for themselves.

Nice color

Si stende male e il risultato risulta davvero disordinato.. se si rende ti fanno pagare le spese quindi l’ho tenuto ma mai usato anche perché ci mette una vita ad asciugarsi e tutte le volte devo poi toglierlo

Being non toxic is rare and great. I put it on a week and a half ago and no chips yet. I love the colour on my brown skin. Shake it a lot at first to make sure it’s not thick and to mix the colour.

Great product, highly recommended.
