My Favourite Nail Varnishes (part 2)

Ok, so here are the next three nail varnishes in my favourite 9, enjoy!



4. Nails Inc. De Vere Gardens - I bought mine in a pack of 10 from TK Maxx for £30 but you can buy Nails Inc. from Boots, Debenhams, Ebay etc for around £10 (I think).

Good

  • I like how unusual it is, it is a pinky browny dark nude colour which I think is very complimentary and versatile.
  • The coverage of the formula is good - I find you only need 1 coat for full coverage


OK

  • Drying time is average, not very fast but not very slow.


Bad

  • I think the nail varnishes are very pricey if bought individually, hence, almost all of my Nails Inc. polishes were bought in a multi-pack.




5. Mac Nail Lacquer in Formidable - Bought from an American outlet store, and I don't think it is available anymore at Mac, but I paid around $10.

Good

  • The colour of this nail varnish is beautiful. There are a lot of purple sparkles, with a few green sparkles, giving a very unusual finish.
  • It dries so quick, probably one of my fastest drying polishes.
  • I think the packaging is really sleek, and you get 10ml which is more than the average polish


OK

  • To get a full coverage, you need a good 3 coats, but 1 coat looks nice over the top of a bright purple.

The price I paid for it was OK, but I know that Mac nail varnish prices in the UK are very high.

Bad

  • NOTHING!!



6. Claire's Mood Colour Changing Nail Polish in Bored/Excited - I got mine off eBay for around £6 because I never saw them in Claire's in the UK.

Good 

  • I get completely entranced by the way it changes colour, and if I happen to have long(ish) nails, then the heat from your fingers gives the polish a gradient effect.
  • I really like both the colours it changes to 


OK

  • It takes a short while to dry, but not too long


Bad

  • The coverage of this is awful, and when I use it  I have to use about 4 coats, but I don't care because it changes colour! 
Thank you for reading, lots of love xxx
