Good evening!
So when you need to stretch out your back, you go to Asda late on Saturday evening and buy some new nail varnish, right?
Well that's what I did
I
picked up three pink toned nails varnishes, two from Asda George's own
range and one from Rimmel. Bright baby pinks do not suit my skin tone..
it's just a no go for me, however hand me a blush, rose or a nude pink
and I'm hooked!
Firstly I bring you Gel Pro from Asda's range. I
bought 05 Pink (on the left) and 09 Nude Pink (on the right) for a
bargain price of £2 each!! I think this is a fairly new introduction to
their range as a hop on to the 'gel effect' bandwagon.
The bottles
feel good quality and definitely not as cheap as I would've expected.
Colour payoff on my swatch wheel isn't too bad either with only two
coats
05
Pink is a little bit more opaque than 09 Nude Pink, the latter possibly
needing three coats on real nails (which could be a downside for some)
however the colours are lovely and I can't wait to give them a try!!
Secondly
I picked up Grape Sorbet from Rimmel's new-ish Super Gel range for £5.98. I picked up Soul Session (a biscuity nude) and the Super Gel Nail Polish Topcoat a couple of months ago from Boots following a friend's
recommendation and where it lasted for a good five days before chipping (however no where near the 14 days wear as advertised) it lasted really
well. On this basis I can't wait to try Grape Sorbet!
My only
concern is that it does look a little streaky on the swatch (middle nail
on photo) and if you don't have the Topcoat I
don't know how long they may last..
Overall I'm happy with my little late night haul and I'll update the post once I've tried them out :)
If you can recommend any good quality high street branded nail varnishes please let me know!!
