Mini Invogue Nail Polish Haul

I bought a few polishes from Invogue when they first came out, but since them I have only seen them in one superdrug so I haven't bought any more.

You can see my other reviews here:
Hi Res Glitter - Blue

Felt it was time to while I had some money in my paypal and superdrug had free delivery over the weekend.

This time I got two metallics which I didn't get any of last time, and another suede effect, my absolute favourite.


First is green sheen, a teal metallic. It had very good coverage on one coat, but as you can see all the brush strokes I put a second on just to even it out. Dries quickly and I think its a great stand out shade.




The second metallic I got is passionate, a lovely lavender colour, almost like the Barry M foil but slightly darker. The same application applies to this as to the other one.

The 3rd polish is my favoutite, suede effect hot gossip





 Had to take a few extra photos. The 'suede' effect, is a matte glitter. I am still after a matte top coat, but this will do until then. In the pictures its just once coat. Its a lovely dark pink I can definitely see me wearing this one a lot.


 Invogue is the more affordable range from Eye Candy and available at Superdrug.

They range from £2.99 (metallics) to £3.49 (suede) they have quite a few other effects too, a really good priced brand, I hope they bring out more in the future.

Another place to purchase invogue is on http://www.ohbeauty.co.uk/invogue-nail-polish they charge £4.49 each BUT it is free delivery! So it works out cheaper

Invogue Suede Effect Emerald Dust Review and Swatch

After a post by another nail blog, I was made aware of a new affordable nail polish from the brand Eye Candy. These are available from Superdrug.com and in stores. I ordered 4 to try out. This is my personal favourite, the colour the effect its just gorgeous. The suede effect is £3.49, a bargain! and also available in silver, purple and pink - think I will be getting all of them!

I have never used "suede effect" before, its basically a shimmery polish that dries matt instead of glossy. I like it. I took quite a few photos because I really like it.


The top 2 photos, you can see how green it is, in the 2 photos below you can see the comparison in light and shade, the gold shimmer really comes out in the sunlight. It applied really smoothly, the polish is quite thick and one coat is enough to cover the nail, I used 2 just out of habit and to smooth it out. I didn't use a top coat, as that would take away the matt effect, looking back I probably should have just to see what it looked like!




 I am really in love with this colour, its a lovely green and the gold is a nice touch. I can't wait to get the other colours
