W7 Nail Polish Shopping Haul & Swatches

I went on a crazy shopping spree once again... this time it was for W7 nail polishes. I discovered them a few days ago when I bought some stuff at New Look and I got 2 colours (one of them neon pink... oh lordy, what's wrong with me). Anyhow, I tested them and thought they had quite good pigmentation and consistency and were really easy to put on. And they were only £2.99 each... Hello Bargain... So, back home I did some research and found them for really cheap on Amazon and went crazy. I bought 12 shades... some of them not necessarily on purpose, cause they were part of a set, but all in all I'm super happy with them. Check out the swatches.. the colours are so amazing and the pigmentation is crazy (apart from the chunky shimmer ones, but that's normal). For 12 shades I paid £20... for that money I can't even get 2 OPI shades. Speaking of OPI... the bottle looks 100% exactly like OPI (apart from the logo of course).

Only downside: They smell really bad. I mean most nail polishes do, but they are similar bad as the Seche Vite smell, so better paint those nails with the window open to avoid brain damage.

Will make a video about those in the next couple of days, but for now, take a look at the swatches below:

W7 Nail Polishes

On my trip to the Mac Counter to exchange some empty containers in exchange for some lipsticks, I found myself with a little time to spare before I had to catch a train and decided to check out the store New Look (for the first time since living in the UK... why? No idea).

Obsessed as I am with nail polishes, they were the first thing that caught my eye as soon as I entered the store. Could also have something to do with the neon pink colour or that the packaging looks exactly like OPI... who knows:-) They were £2.99 each, so I thought I should definitely check them out and even though I wasn't into neon colours since the 1980s, I thought it might be fun to have a bright colour to lighten up one of those cold winter days that lay ahead.

I painted one nail each to test the colours and I am actually quite impressed. I can't judge the staying power yet, but the colours are very true to the bottle and 2 coats were plenty and they went on very smooth. Not too thin, not too thick. For £2.99 I'm definitely loving them! The colours I got are Khaki and Fluorescent Pink.

A definite Thumbs up for now...
