NOTD: No7 "Vivid Violet"


I had a money off voucher so I got myself this polish. I've never been able to put my finger (haha...) on why I don't have a lot of No7 polishes before - but I think I have the answer...


I just don't like any of their colours.


This colour I do like, but it takes 3 coats to get to the look of my photo. If I had long nails I would have to put on 4 to not have Visible Nail Line. And I am not a patient girl, as many of you know so 4 layers is painful...


This polish applies neatly though, and the brush is easy to handle. Dries fairly fast, I think the cork is bigger than it needs to be, and fool you into thinking that the bottle is same size as a China Glaze (which is 14ml, No7 has only 10ml...)


I also just started using Sally Hansen Nail Quencher base coat. I am hoping it will bring my nails back into shape a bit! I will give you a full review in a couple of weeks time :)

This is a vivid purple. Love this shade. Four coats of polish is way too much!

Lucy - I know, 4 coats is ridiculous. I am not a patient woman, I only really re-wear polish that require only 2 coats :)
