Maybelline - super stay 7 days gel nail colour

Hello! (Sorry it has been a while since I have posted) After trying out the Rimmel 60 second nail polish and being rather impressed I thought that I would try what Maybelline had to offer.


Mint for life, Roe Poudre, Surreal
  • 615: Mint for life - this colour is my favourtie mint polish as it doesn't have too much green in which makes it the perfect pastel for summer.
  • 130: Rose Poudre - this gorgeous shade look so natural on the nails with a touch of pink making it look classy, would be perfect for someone who isn't really into the brighter shades for summer.
  • 635: Surreal - this is such a unique shade in my collection, I would say it's a purple with a little blue mixed in, creating a bold bright nail however being a darker colour.

These nail varnishes seems to last really well, 7 days? To be honest I change my nails regularly so haven't tested that out, but I see them being perfect for any holiday involving water as they are quite hard wearing. Please leave any shade recommendations down below as I would love to try out some more!

Hope you enjoyed,

Rimmel - 60 seconds nail polish



 Heey guys! I thought I would do a little review on some of the new nails polishes that I recently picked up from boots.

Left to right:
rose libertine, too cool to tango, round and round the garden, blue eyed girl


These £3.65 nail polishes are great for building up your collection if you are like me and aren't particularly gifted at painting your nails and can’t justify a lot of money on them. They apply evenly with a flat brush and have a nice consistency making them easier to apply and if you are in a rush with one coat the colour will still be strong. I'm not entirely sure that they dry in 60 seconds but compared to my Barry M and Essie nail polishes they seem to dry within seconds. They also seem to last around the one week mark with minimal chipping however I normally get bored of the same colour so tend to change it up a lot therefore I haven’t been able to fully put them to the test to give you an exact answer.



‘Rose libertine’ and ‘too cool to tango’ are the perfect spring/summer rose pink and baby blue for me.  





However ‘round and round the garden’ and ‘blue eyed girl’ will also be used a lot this summer when I fancy straying away from the normal pink and blue pastel colour choices.
