Maybelline Colour Show Polka Dot - Speckled Pink and Shooting Star

On my little trip to superdrug today trying to find a 3rd item, I almost missed these! Maybelline Colour Show are a nice affordable alternative, lots of colours available but these really stood out. As soon as I saw them I just had to buy them. I got the pink and blue, there is also a green but it wasn't in stock and a black and white which looks exactly like the L'oreal Confetti that already have. 



First up is Shooting Star:



Shooting star is a blue base with a mix of black and white glitter pieces in all different sizes. The top 2 nails are 2 coats of Shooting Star on its own, would probably need a 3rd for complete coverage, the bottom 2 are 1 coat of a Barry M polish and 1 coat of Shooting Star. I love this effect and I am slightly annoyed when I paid for the L'oreal one which is quite expensive when these have now come out! 

Next up is Speckled Pink - my favourite of the two.




Same formula as Shooting Star. The top 2 nails are 2 coats on their own, the bottom 2 are 1 coat Barry M and 1 coat Speckled Pink. I really love how it looks over the Barry M polish. It could do with another 1 or 2 coats on its own so definitely one for layering. I am so glad these caught my eye, and I will definitely be looking out for the green.

Colour Show retails for only £2.99! In boots and superdrug. They are a great affordable range from Maybelline and I look forward to seeing what they bring out next.

Have you tried the polka dot range yet?
