Models Own caused quite a stir back in October with the launch of their Beetlejuice collection which, the all of the photos, looked like a pretty amazing bunch of nail polishes. I remember seeing the sneak peek images on BritishBeautyBlogger and thinking that they looked really good because they were different from your average duochrome shades. When the collection launched, I forgot all about them until I went on to ASOS and saw that they were doing a trio for £10.00 so I bought them and waited for the postie to drop them through my letterbox. They never arrived but after a few angry tweets to ASOS, they arrived the following day and I forgot about them again. It's never a good sign when you forget about makeup or nail polish because it means that they're either not memorable enough and therefore not exciting or you have way too much stuff.
Anyway, I finally managed to swatch one of the polishes from the collection and although it is pretty, it isn't the most exciting nail polish I've seen.
This is Emerald Black - a deep green with a whole lot of black.
On first glance, this polish first reminded me Racing Green by Barry M but this one is significantly darker so The still haven't found a way to get rid of the nasties. However, with that being said, the polish still applies exceptionally well and dried quite quickly too so you don't have to wave your arms around for too long waiting for it to set. The only downside was that it didn't last very long and I started to notice a lot of tip wear after only two days so if you're after a polish that you can wear throughout the week, this definitely isn't it.
You can buy the Models Own Beetlejuice Collection now from ASOS and the Models Own website.
Until next time...
Keep swivelling those hips in your
I wish this had a bit more green in it, I would think it was gorgeous then! I just hate when these sort of nail polishes just look black unless you stand under the right lighting, because most of the time, you're not :(
