BEAUTY BLOG ALERT: Glossy New Mani

Just before Christmas I treated myself to some well earned cosmetic goodies, I figured that as a beauty blogger a trip to Boots was a necessity. I bought my usual staples but this time I also qualified for a freebie! I spent enough (well sort of, I paid using my Advantage card points!), to receive a free Max Factor box of makeup items worth over £30.00.

In honesty, one of the items in the box wasn't to my taste (brown mascara), I gave the shimmery gold eye shadow to my Mum (clearly I had WAY too much Christmas spirit), I kept the red lipstick using it over the festive period. There was also a nail polish in the box, which looked lovely in the bottle but I wasn't desperate to try it, it had potential to be one that I wouldn't really use.

HOW WRONG WAS I? Rookie beauty error received and understood: don't judge a polish by its appearance in the bottle. Yesterday, I took off the lid off the "Raspberry Blush", the polish glided smoothly onto my stiletto nails and the colour was an instant hit - with just one coat.

The picture shows my nail with two coats, but in honesty one coat probably would have cut it - I'm just a sucker for a rich depth of colour with the ultimate shine. The Glossfinity does REALLY live up to its name - super shiny, super glossy, I'm super impressed.

So here it is, my glossy thumbnail with the star of the show herself, (Raspberry Blush is a girly name, right?).

The Glossfinity nail polish is available in a variety of colours in Boots stores and online, I for one will definitely be buying more of them! The Raspberry Blush one isn't featured on the online colour chart, but there Disco Pink looks very similar! At £5.99 which one will you be buying?
