So, let's test them!
Materials and Methods
Maybelline Express Finish (130 L Lacquer Peach Fantasy) and NiveaTurbo Color (05 Turbo Pastel) |
40 sec? 45? Are you kidding - 60 minimum and 2,5 min for 2 coats! Maybelline has an advantage because of very broad and comfortable brush, which allows very even and smooth application. With Nivea I had to fight a bit, because it was very hard to achieve nice even surface even for the second coat. But actually, this would be true only for Lacquer edition, because normal Pearl Maybelline ( I have Express Finish Pearl as well in colour 120P Sweet Rose) despite the brush applies very streaky. I did not make any pictures of the Pearl because they were just ugly. Below are the pictures of nails with 2 polishes shown above:

Conclusion
I would give 7/10 for Maybelline and 6/10 for Nivea. Maybelline scores one point more because of the brush. Nivea lost one due to streaks and sheer light coverage.
Would I buy again? - probably no, because the colours are not exclusive and my expectations were not fulfilled.
P.S. Maybelline polish has very beautiful soft rosé colour, but I have no idea why it is called Peach fantasy!
Schöne rosé Töne, die würden mir auch sehr gut gefallen.
