I've never tried a Claire's polish before so I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of quality. (I had sooo much Claire's jewelry back in middle school and the metal bits always turned green and nasty after a little while.) But this actually applied quite nicely. I used three coats here.
Based on pictures I've seen, Claire's version of Candy Shop has a darker pink base than the original. I still have a lemming for DL's version (I need to just buy the damn thing already) but this polish is a decent way to get the look for less. I got my bottle about a year ago, so unfortunately I have no idea if Claire's still makes it anymore though! If you've spotted it recently, I'd love to hear from you in the comments!
