NOTD - Aubergine by Marks and Spencer

Todays polish is from Marks and Spencer.  Not a place I would normally buy nail polish from but I saw a review on Youtube which was good so I thought I would check them out.  When I bought this in December they were running a buy one get one half price offer.  As the polish is was £3, it seemed like a good deal so I bought four.  Unfortunately all four were in the same bag and somehow they got knocked into each other and one broke.  The green one.  Yeah cleaning that up was fun.  Nail polish doesn't seem to come off skin as easily as it does off nails and I spent the next 24 hours afterwards looking a bit like a smurf!!

Anyway enough of my clumsiness and back to the nail polish!  This is a very dark red/brown polish.  It looks more rusty red in the bottle than it does on your nails, but I do like the colour.  It looks like a very grown up polish.

The polish itself has a thick consistency and so is a bit tricky to apply.  I did ruin my thumbnail on the first coat as I applied it too thick and when I tried to even it out it it went blobby.  Luckily it smoothed out on the second coat.

I would give this polish an A for colour, but only a B for how ease of appliance given how thick it was.

Next up is Azure from Rimmel - a beautiful electric blue colour.  Can't wait!

Until then,

I just wanted to add to this my verdict on this polish.  I am still wearing it 4 days later and apart from normal wearing on the ends it hasn't chipped at all.  The colour is so gorgeous - its like a metallic dark red/brown, I love looking at my nails with it on.  I think this is definitely one of my favourites!
