NAILS: Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish in Nebline and Speeding Light

These were such a bargain from the Fragrance Direct sale (see post here) for 60p each - Speeding Light is still in stock for 60p, as are some other shades. You can also buy them from Boots (£2.99), Superdrug (only specialist ones online for £2.99) and Tesco (£3) to name a few places.

It's always a bit harder buying shades of any beauty product online, as you can't see what the actual colour will be but I'm really pleased with these too. I don't have any nail varnishes these colours, so they fit in perfectly. Out of the two I thought I'd like Speeding Light on best but actually Nebline is my favourite - as it's such a subtle colour it goes with everything!

I did find that this nail varnish was quite runny, you have to be careful not to get too much nail varnish on the brush otherwise you end up with a 'puddle' of nail varnish at the nail bed. As it is quite runny you really need two coats before you can see the true colour. The drying time is really quick and it did last really well. To be honest I wasn't expecting it to last very long, mainly because it is quite runny. But this last 4/5 days, which for me and my nails is pretty good going!

I created some flowery nail art using the nail art tools Tom gave me for Christmas (you can buy them here)....

Does your nail varnish collection have a wide variety of colours or do you stick to certain shades?
