How to

Step 1: Nail Prep Scrub each nail with a lint-free pad thoroughly to remove any oils or lotions.

Step 2: Base Coat Apply two layers to each nail, allowing each coat to dry matte. If Base Coat is cloudy or jelly-like, stand the bottle in one inch of hot water until the product becomes clear. **Do not microwave or submerge in water.

Step 3: Lacquer Apply two layers of Nail Lacquer to each nail, allowing each layer to dry matte. **Avoid contact with cuticles and skin to prevent lifting.

Step 4: Top Coat Apply one layer of Top Coat to each nail after the Lacquer has dried matte. Wait five minutes—your manicure is done!

+Revive: Add 6-8 drops of Revive to a Top Coat, Transform, or Nail Lacquer whose consistency is too thick. Add more if necessary.

**DO NOT add Revive to a Base Coat. It will ruin the product. Store with original cap to prevent evaporation from occurring.

Reviews

Perfect burnt sienna fall color 🍂

"Absolutely beautiful color and coverage! Makes me feel sophisticated, daring, and sexy! Application stays on for over a week even with my hands in water frequently."

— Jen 🍁. (5/5)

PERFECT SHADE FOR FALL

"I can't think of a better shade for fall than Bookworm. It's the perfect auburn rust color. If you like brown shades but are too scared to commit to a full brown, Bookworm is the perfect option for you. It gives you the depth that a normal brown would while also giving you the perfect pinch of color with the auburn red."

— Santal (5/5)

Rich color for fall. I

"Rich color for fall. I love that it is not just brown or rust but a more complex shade. Since it is dark, be sure to go over the tips of your nails or the wear will show earlier. Love the opaque colors the best! Hope for more opaques please :) I am a new customer and LOVE how fast these polishes dry. Well worth it as the frustration level to doing my own nails has gone down to zero!"

— Sarah A. (5/5)

Did I do something wrong?

"I took my dazzle dry nail polish to a salon that uses dazzle dry because they did not have the color that I liked. Using my polish, they did my nails. After two weeks, I went back and had my nails done again. My nails became extremely dry and started chipping. This was done at a nice salon, and the prep, base and topcoat were all dazzle dry. The color was mine. What happened?"

Gorgeous Auburn color 😍

"Bookworm is the perfect Fall color. The formula is so easy to work with and applies beautifully. It also looks gorgeous with Gleam as a topper!"

— Desiree M. (5/5)

Beautiful Fall Color

"I would describe it as a brownish cranberry. Coverage was very nice. Tried a few nails dotting with Paperback with my new dotting tool. It created a subtle polka dot design perfect for me :)"

— Jeanne L. (5/5)

Classic Fall Color!

"A very pretty brown with a great formula and application. I gave it 4 stars because the online photos led me to expect a bit more russet in the color."

— Annette S. (4/5)

Bookworm is gorgeous

"Bookworm was even prettier than I expected. Such a perfect Fall and winter color. Application was perfect. Definitely a great choice!"

— Jennifer A. (5/5)

Bookworm - lots of chipping

"The color is beautiful! However I had a chip 36 hours after my manicure and a second chip the next day. I thought it was a fluke. Next manicure, same problem. I’ve been wearing dazzle dry exclusively for the last few years and this is the only paint I’ve had chip. Very disappointed. Only gave it a second star because the color is so great."

— Jennifer F. (2/5)

Very Happy with this Fall Color!

"I am really liking this nice fall color! It goes on smoothly and lasts well for me! I feel “in style” and it feels good!"

— Jaime A. (5/5)
