This is the latest in a long line of 'graffiti' look effect polishes, but it's at a much more reasonable price than most! Recently I picked up 'In the Surf' from Seventeen, which is a pretty blue/white/green speckled polish with hints of orange. It's a perfect effect polish, but you only really get the desired effect if layered on top of a white/light base coat.
I won't go too much into the white base coat as the review isn't about that but let's just say it's absolute rubbish. When I finally got the base coat to look somewhat decent I applied the graffiti polish and it's really lovely. I used two or three coats to get the above look and it really builds a sturdy layer. The flecks of colour in the polish are particularly lovely but I wouldn't say it's particularly 'graffiti' like.
It's very hardwearing but as I needed so many base layers it's one that can peel off quite easily if you're not careful. For £3.99 this is very cheap and cheerful and there's also a peach/pink top coat available as well, which is as equally pretty. I would recommend this for a night out to add a bit of extra glamour to your outfit.
Have you tried this? Let me know in the comments.
Oh, these are really quite stunning! xx
ReplyDeleteAren't they?!
DeleteI guess you can use any white polish, if this one is crap? I like the finish look though it's cute. I don't remember the quality of the Seventeen nail polish I have tried, but I know I did, when they spell it 17.
ReplyDeleteYep any old white polish will do but I didn't have one so picked this up!
DeleteThe peach top coat sounds lovely! x

I think I'd be more prone to picking this up if there were no flecks of orange :(
