All that glitters.................

Nails Inc Special Effects - Bloomsbury Square

As a lover of Nails Inc normal nail polishes, I was very excited to try one of their special effects. Hence when there was a 3 for 2 offer on make-up in Boots I snapped this one up. I also love the names that Nails Inc give their polishes, this one is Bloomsbury Square.




This polish can either be used on top of another nail polish, or by itself. I tried it by itself, and to get the effect that I wanted it took about 4 coats.


It did apply really well like any Nails Inc polish, although when getting to the 4th coat it did feel gloopy on the nail. The first coat showed the color to be very transparent with just a slight covering of glitter, therefore if using it on it's own layering it up with multiple coats is the best option. However this effect could be achieved with a dark or even light colour underneath and then this as a top coat for added sparkle.

As with any glitter nail polish it will be interesting when trying to remove it as this can sometimes take multiple cotton pads soaked in nail polish remover!

I am impressed with this but for 4 coats is not as simple to put on as a normal Nails Inc polish which can only take one coat and look fantastic. I will be purchasing in the future the crackle effect to compare and to experiment further.
