H&M Nail Polish | Active Blue

Hello There!

Today I'm talking about this little snip I bought in H&M. I'd read some blog posts about H&M nail polishes, so when I was in Manchester at the weekend I dived into H&M to grab a nail polish or two. 
So I spotted this beauty and bought straight away. I'm not going to lie, if the nail polishes weren't only displayed in the queue area I would have bought more, but I was pressured by other shoppers who wanted to make their purchases.

It was literally a snip at £0.99 only, and I really didn't have high expectations for this nail polish, as with most products on my blog it seems. I just thought 'that colour's cute for a night out' because it's really sparkly. It was so pretty I tried it as soon as I got home. 

It only took 1 layer to get a thick coat of polish which I was thankful for because let's face it, it's a pretty small bottle.  And then, I had 3 days of chip-free polish - and it's not long-lasting or anything. I was literally gob-smacked! I am an expert at chipping all nail polishes even non-chip polishes, and it didn't happen :O

So a truly smashing nail polish and I will be sure to pick up a load more next time I'm at H&M. I'm recommending to everyone!

Have you been really impressed by a nail polish recently?

Nailed Polish by Sleek | Quick Drying

Hello There!

So today I'm talking about an impressive new addition to my nail polish collection: 
Nailed Polish by Sleek

I wanted to try out some more of Seek's products and thought that a nail polish was a good way to start. The first thing that I saw on this was - Quick Drying. I thought 'Ha, as if!'
So I bought it so I could laugh at the bottle... (sad, I know)

I decided on the colour Crimson because, you know, you can never have enough glittery red nail polishes. I bought it and I prepared myself to have a good laugh.
And I was sooo disappointed that I couldn't mock this nail polish :(
(I really tried)
I know that sounds strange, but I honestly couldn't fault it. It dried quickly - like super-quickly (hard dry, not touch dry). And the polish is really pigmented so it literally only takes one layer to get a polished look. Yay!

Ok, no it's not the longest lasting nail polish that I've used, but that's not what it's designed to be, and if you're looking for a real quick fix to add colour to an outfit if you're going out, this is a good choice.

So, for once I have actually been impressed by a so-called 'Quick Drying' nail polish. I've tried so many different quick-drying polishes, but this is the first one to make it onto my blog (so that's saying something!)

There's not that much else I can add to this post except - if you want a nail polish that does what it says on the tin (or label), then this is a great one to get :)
