Turquoise Gloss
This polish is such a fun colour - a bright, luminescent turquoise, it's perfect for summer, and adds a really uplifting pop of colour to any outfit.
Naked Glow
I love this natural, mocha colour. It's wearable any time of year and is a perfect natural colour for school or work.
Formula: I found the formula of both of these polishes extremely thick. You know when you've had a polish for a bit too long and it goes kind of gloopy? They're like that. It made them really difficult to apply neatly. The turquoise took one thick coat, i tried to do two thin ones but found getting only a thin coating pretty much impossible. The formula of the mocha one was slightly less thick and therefore slightly easier to apply. It took two coats. I applied a clear top coat over both the polishes.
Finish: The idea of these polishes, as stated on the lid, is that they give a 'gel effect'. I've got to say that I was kind of disappointed. Although they do give a lovely, high-shine finish, i cant say that i'd tell the difference between them and any other 'normal' nail polishes. This finish is definitely not as shiny and flawless as the finish of real gel polish.
Staying Power: The staying power of these was really average - I got about 1-2 days out of them before they started to chip.
Have you guys tired any of the models own hyper gel polishes? What do you think? I'd love to know!
