Orly - Right Amount Of Evil

I put this on the last post. I really thought it would work, but it didn't! 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (5-6 minutes a coat). This paints really well and no dabbing required! The brush is thin so make sure there is plenty polish on the brush for good coverage. The formula is good too. I like the polish just don't think it works too well with the sky blue. I think it would be good on white or black. This lasted really well.

Chanel - Fraicheur

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (5-6 minutes a coat). Sadly this polish is quite sheer and requires 3 coats. The brush is thin and okay. It is a nice minty green with a subtle shimmer. You can see the shimmer in the bottle in the second photo. It doesn't really show too good on the nails sadly. This lasted well.

I put this on top of the last post. 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (2-3 minutes a coat). The brush is good. The formula is good and goes on well and paints nicely. It is a nice golden glitter. I think this combo looks quite festive! This lasted really well.

Orly - Lemonade

 

This is okay to use, dodgy to apply and okay drying (6-7 minutes a coat). The formula is really streaky and not so good. The brush is thin, that doesn't really help! A thicker brush would have been better. Careful application is required. This polish is also unforgiving to ridges :-( On the plus side, it did last well. There are way better yellows out there than this.

Morgan Taylor - Super Ultra Violet

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (5 minutes a coat). The formula is really good and the brush is good and small. It is a lovely bold blue and it is very glossy! 1 coat would do but I used 2 as I was taking photos! Lasted really well.

Sparitual - Sea Glass

 

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). Though the last coat is a wee bit longer to dry. The brush is thin but good and the formula goes on nicely. It is a lovely iridescent polish with little silver flecks. I really liked this polish and it lasted really well.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (1-2 minutes a coat). The formula is amazing and the brush is really good too, it is medium sized. This is a gorgeous red textured polish with golden sparkles! I really like textured polishes and this impressed me. It lasted really well.

Nails Inc - Feel The Hotness

 

This is easy to use, okay to apply and okay drying time (5-6 minutes a coat). It is very sheer and requires 3 coats. The brush and formula are both good. This is a thermal polish, meaning it changes colour depending on the temperature. Cold it is blue and warm it is white. It changed well under the hot and cold water! Lasted well.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and quick drying (4 minutes a coat). The brush is medium sized and good. The formula goes one well too. It is a lovely blue/green colour. This lasted well. These photos were all taken with my photo, as the camera needed charged!

This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). The formula is good but a tad sheer and the brush is small. It is a nice yellow with a pink shimmer. Sadly, as you can see in the photos, it is unforgiving to ridges. It is a really nice polish and lasted well.

Revolution - Mint Chill

 

Last photo with the UV light!

This is easy to use, kinda dodgy to apply and okay drying (4-5 minutes a coat). It is very streaky and prone to bald patches. Keep brushstrokes to a minimum. I would say the brush is pretty good but not the formula. It is a nice pearly mint green and it is UV too! This lasted really well.

a-England - Flaming June

 

First 3 photos in the sunlight and the last in inside lighting.

This is easy to use, easy to apply and good drying (3-4 minutes a coat). This is a gorgeous golden orange holo polish. It really is stunning. Both brush and formula are good. BUT sadly it chipped after a day :-( I was very disappointed with this as it is lovely. So gorgeous but not great quality!
