I decided to treat myself to a little splurge in Boots last
week to celebrate handing in my last assignment! While I was shopping I happened
to notice a new offer.
SEVENTEEN have just released a
new collection ‘Carnival which retails at £1.99, absolute bargain! “A carnival
of amazing nail colours in gloss, matte, satin, shimmer & glitter shades!” Their description is beyond
true.
I picked up a few shades that caught my eye to test.
1. Silver Lilac Shimmer
2. Holo Glitter
3. Pale Pink
For £1.99 each, I wasn’t really expecting much from the
product but mostly just bought them because the colours were too pretty not to!
I used the lilac as a base, and put a coat of holo glitter
over the top. When buying I instantly paired these two together in my mind, and
it looks amazing. So far so good, it
hasn’t appeared to chip easily.
The brush is fairly flat similar to the Barry M Speedy Quick
collection or even the new Gosh collection, it made for very easy application.
Also the colours much quicker than expected of such a cheap polish, so it meant
layering up took no time at all. My nails were decorated and dried within ten
minutes.
The pale pink I tested on my niece today, it did take two
coats to see colour, however you could still see the nail through, so three
coats is needed for the paler shades as they are less pigmented. However, for
two pound you can’t really complain.
I have nothing but positive things to say about the new
SEVENTEEN collection, I definitely will be going to buy some more. They offer
60 colours, so you won’t be disappointed! If you haven’t tried this collection,
I seriously advise you too.
What’s your favourite carnival shade?
