If there's one area of my current beauty regime that's seriously lacking, it's my nails. I love how painted nails look, however what I don't love it how easily they chip at the worst possible moment. Because I rarely paint my nails, when i do get around to doing them I often forget that they're done. Naturally, It's only usually when I'm on my way to an important meeting do I realise how many chips are on my nails and then the panic trying to peel off the remaining polish begins.
I headed to Superdrug recently to pick up a few essentials and came home with these polishes. All of them are unusual choices, but I'll talk you through my reasonings....
Models Own Scented Sweet Shop Polish - Fizzy Cola Bottles.
Price: £5.00 each or 2 for £7.99
So, I don't know where to begin on the colour of this. It isn't one I'd ever usually pick out and honestly - I didn't choose this one - my boyfriend did. He's a big fan of Coke Zero, and when asked which one I should get, he chose this erm, brown shade. I think I'll wait to see how it looks on before I pass judgement, and I'm looking forward to seeing how scented this is!
Models Own Scented Sweet Shop Polish - Rhubarb n Custard.
Price: £5.00 each or 2 for £7.99
I'm a massive fan of sweeties and I was drawn to this polish instantly. I love the sparkle in this deep raspberry shade and I'm looking forward to seeing how this looks on!
Barry M Nail Art Pen
Price: £4.99 Each or Buy one, get one half price (at Superdrug)
So I rarely wear nail polish and I can't draw, but for some reason I really wanted these nail art pens. I've got quite a few cute pastel nail polishes in my collection and thought whilst summer is still here, I should try and attempt some summer nails! I Picked up 2 of these as they were buy one get one half price. I'm looking forward to giving them a try... and If all else fails, I may even try and persuade my boyfriend to do my nails for me as he has crazy drawing skills.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on these picks, Have you tried any of these before?? Let me know in the comments.

The brown shade is interesting! But it might make a nice nude colour. I never paint my nails as I always mess them up, but I am starting my new job soon and after I make sure I can, I'm hoping to dedicate more time to my nails.

Those scented polishes look amazing! I think the Cola bottle one will actually come out really nicely... hopefully! Will be good if they actually smell like sweets as well

The model's own scented nail varnishes are so intriguing! I really wonder whether the cola one looks and smells good or not. I think I'd have picked it in a heartbeat! x

I always had chipped nails until I tried OPI's top coat... now my polish lasts a week chip free. My nails are too thin and brittle to hold up to gel polish and removal, so OPI has been amazing.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I'm not keen on the look of the new sweetshop collection from Models Own and I'm definitely not keen on the brown shade! The other one you've chosen does look pretty but I have a couple of very similar colours already x
