NOTD - Topshop 'No Love Lost'


Dear Topshop, I want my fiver back. Your nail polishes are pretty but they SUCK.


This photo is when I first used it two weeks ago. The mess above is only two coats and it needs at least three to look decent but my god I couldn't bear the dragging and gloopiness. Why is it be gloopy and stringy when it's brand new?!


Since I had nothing but time on my hands today I thought I'd give it another go but nope, stll hate it. Four coats to become opaque and a clear top coat to get rid of the drag marks = too much hassle. Then of course it took ages to dry and ended up smudging so to prevent my blood pressure going through the roof, I decided it would be better to take it all off.

I can't help my attraction to coral nail polish and this one looked very promising but the only place it's fit for is the rubbish bin.

    @Imogen - I had such high hopes :( x

    @GABY - I love the dotty packaging x

    @Sana - No I took it from the back and it was brand new, could tell it hadn't been swatched as there wasn't any polish remnant(?) on the neck. It's just rubbish! :( xx

    The colour is nice but such a shame it's so rubbish to apply! I'll stick to my Barry M favourites - super cheap and so nice and easy to apply!

    i am a fan of topshop nails varnishes but find that they go gloopy in the pot only after a little while. This colour is lush though,summer is coming !

    Oh emm geee. I bought the exact same one along with Green Room. SO GLOOPY. Hated it. What a pain in the arse to apply. I swear when they first released the nail polishes, they had pretty good texture. But now? PFFFFT. xo

    By the way, no17 have a new nail polish out, very similar colour to this and much better application, can't remember what it's called but if you want, I can find out for you when I next pop into boots. xo
