Maybelline Color Show Nail Lacquer

Okay I admit it, I fell for the 3 for 2 offer in boots this weekend! #guilty Sure look, I'm only human LOL...

But I'm excited to tell you about the great purchases I made! I bought 3 of Maybellines Color Show Nail Lacquers.

• The first one is what I like to call a mermaid blue colour which is funny because it's called 'Ocean Blue'.
• Secondly a deep purple colour called 'Noite De Gal' , I know it will be used a lot coming into the winter months!
• And last but not least a top coat that is part of the 'Street Art' range called 'White Splatter'!

So what'the difference between Nail Lacquer And Nail Polish, I hear you ask??

Well since you asked...

I find nail lacquer dries much faster than regular nail polish. When I use nail polish I try to be really careful for at least an hour afterwards because it's always sticky but when I used the lacquer it was dry completely within 60 seconds! So it would be perfect if you leave getting ready till the last minute like myself and always end up smudging your nails running out the door...

Also Nail lacquer is said to be stronger then nail polish which means it doesn't chip as fast. I seem to have nails that chip 2 minutes after painting my nails so anything that prevents chipping is good in my eyes:)

They still do the same job at the end of the day but I did like using the lacquer and could even get away without a top coat because it came up really shiny when it dried!

The Maybelline Color show range was the offical nail color of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York!

On the Maybelline website it says for best results apply a base coat but I find when I have no base coat it lasts longer because when the nail is dry and you paint it, the color sticks to your nail more.

I really loved the top coat 'White Splatter', I used two-three coats and it turned out really funky. It looks like someone spray painted my nails and turned out like a graffiti wall!

So if you find yourself in boots taken in by the 3 for 2 offers I would really recommend these nail lacquers!

Well hello lovely people, hope you are having a fun week so far! 

I am really enjoying writing and creating designs for my blog and it's getting exciting. I went to my first ever bloggers event last Saturday held in the Morgan Hotel on Fleet Street. It was to discuss and try out the products 'WetNWid' have to offer their new fabulous Irish customers. 
They're an American Cosmetic brand which just launched in Ireland this year starting off in Dunnes Stores and working their way into Pennys ( started from the bottom now we here! lol). I had such a great time meeting fellow bloggers and chatting about all the wonderful products in front of us. 

Obviously as a proud nail varnish addict my eyes went straight to the ginormous bottles of nail varnishes! Seriously guys they look the exact same as 'Sally Hansen' nail varnishes but wayyyyyy less expensive. All of their nail varnishes are under the €3 mark so you definitely get your moneys worth:) 

The colours I've tried out so far include 'I Red A Good Book' and 'Wet Cement'. They're part of the 'WetNWild megalast' nail varnishes.

I really like 'Wet Cement' as it's simple and looks great with a bit of tan. 

'I Red A Good Book'- Such a witty name lol. There is just something about having red nails that makes you feel so powerful and ready to take on the world! 

The best things I thought about them are:

1. The brush is big enough to fit your entire nail so one swoop is enough to cover it all in whatever your favourite colour may be;)This makes that sticky mess when you are going over and over one nail to cover it all a thing of the past.
2. It drys in literally 10 seconds. So no more waiting around to apply another coat!
3. Its long lasting which means it wont start to chip for a few days .
4. Also the finish on them is so shiny which means a clear top coat isn't necessary to get that shine! (I didn't use one on mine)
5. The size of the bottle! I think I will have these for a pretty long time. 'This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship'-Casablanca LOL

I am definitely going to buy some new colours from this range, because as a student you're always trying to save them dollaaa billzzz;) 

Have a great weekend everyone, its almost here!! #wooo
