Perhaps I should have named this post 'Nail of the Stormy Day' in light of recent weather ... I don't like storms but then again I don't like bitter cold, snow and ice ... I just don't like Winter - end of! Anyway this is the Marks & Spencer Limited Collection Quick Dry Nail Polish in Storm ... I bought it a couple of months ago ... and yes ... it's taken me all this time to get this post out ... disgraceful I know ...!
The colour comes out richer on the nail than in the bottle and is a deep grey in colour, probably one of the darkest polishes I own but very wearable - even on hands of my age! I like that's it's almost black but not black. It calls to my inner rock-chick - although I'm sure sophisticated ladies would carry it off with great success!
Have I mentioned that I have a bit of a 'thing' for these M&S polishes? They have a good glossy finish with average wear time and they are so easy to apply with a good sized brush. I find the consistency just right - it's more on the thin than thick side but that's preferable to a gloopy mess in my opinion. A steal at £3.50 each and very often on offer at buy one get one half price!
So ... would you be channelling your inner rock-chick or sophisticate? Have you tried the M&S Limited Collection Polishes yet?

ReplyDeleteIt's really not too bad Helen - I was surprised! xx
