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:
About 1.5 years ago I went to get a professional pedicure for the first time and when she said I should pick my colour I had to choose one from a rack full of OPI nail polishes. This is how my love to OPI started, cause the colour I chose was Malage Wine (still one of my favorites), which is a beautiful red. I had no idea which nail polishes are good and which are bad, so when I properly started buying nail polishes I decided to go with what I know and get some shades from OPI... Malaga Wine being my first (of course). Over time I got many shades and I mostely buy them on eBay from sellers I can trust, but I really couldn't afford that many if I had to pay £13 or more each. I mean, the quality is definitely worth the money, but why spend more if you can get them cheaper.
