So I was in boots yesterday tryin to get all the bits and pieces needed to make bath salts with the teenagers @ youth club for mothers day soo I just had to have a look around the makeup stands to see what was new nail polish wise and every stand seems to have new colours out I really had to restrain myself I have been after a nice peach crème finish so I picked up this 17 lasting fix in orange soda I have yet to try it on my own nails but my sister is wearing it along with 17 lasting fix in lemon fizz these ones take a while to dry but tey are really opaque so I find 2 coats enough

Then of this new crackle top coat caught my eye (I really think they put those just in stickers to make me spend more money) I love the colour but the crackle pattern isn’t exactly awe inspiring you have to apply it really thin or it won’t crack I will keep at it though coz I like the colour its what I would describe as a platinum colour it has a similar consistency as the china glaze ones rather than the Barry m crackle polish

My last purchase of the day was the new Revlon scented nail polish in colour 340 coconut crush when it dries it is sented they have – colours but I figured I will get a lot of use out of the pearl white finnish not a particularly unique colour but sented nail polish.. of course I’m gonna have to have some lol it is pretty scented it first dries 2nd day in it still smells good but not a s strong I kinda wanna see how long it lasts it really just a bit of fun coz I won’t be able to top coat it or it will lose the smell so it’s a short term Mani will let you guys know how it goes

I love the idea of the scented nail polish but I wish you could smell it before you buy it the consistency is good a little thinner than the normal Revlon it takes 3-4 coats to make it opaque I guess it is gimmicky coz it’s not like I’m gonna walk around smelling my nails all day but it’s a bit of fun for the summer r perfect for me to wear until I sort out my ‘car’ colour speaking of which I did swatch the 17 crackle top coat over china glaze sea spray and I love the really subtle effect I got
