3 for 2 at Priceline

As a treat to myself over exams, I took this morning off to go into town, grab a coffee from my favourite coffee shop and go sit at the beach and try to forget the stress of examtime. On my way there, I decided to pop into Priceline to discover there was a 3 for 2 sale on all Rimmel, Loreal and Revlon products, and I couldn't possibly go on with my day without updating my nail polish collection. Thus, here are 2 of the new polishes and a review.


The colours are both from the I <3 Lasting Finish line in 053 Apricot Punch and 170 Lively Lilac.

Both polishes have the same applicator brush which is not as good (in my honest opinion) as the Rimmel 1 second (big, flat) brush however it did get the job done, and at such a reasonable price of $5.95 AUD who can complain?

I love love love the lilac polish, it goes on evenly and only required 2 coats for a perfect finish.

The apricot however is a completely different polish, it goes on gluggy and unevenly (and unfortunately dried so quickly that my attempts to fix it ended up making matters worse) and although not immediately obvious from the picture, 2 coats is still not completely opaque and there are still areas of uneven spread if you stare really hard at my nails! In addition, the bottle says it's supposed to have a 'fruity scent'...i smell nail varnish...and it's giving me a headache.

Overall i'd highly recommend the lilac polish but give the apricot a miss.
