NYC Nail Paint Review: Times Square Tangerine Creme


So the second nail polish I am reviewing today (if you haven't seen the other one look for Revlon Nail Paint Review!) is called Times Square Tangerine Creme and its made by NYC. This is also a drugstore product but this time from superdrug! It is at the other end of the price scale from the REVLON nail polish and this one was only £1.50! NYC products are always cheap and the nail polishes are either £1.50 or £2.00 if I remember right!
This nail polish is a really nice bright orange colour. It is a very summery and fun colour so I don't think I would wear this is winter but some people might to snazz up a dull outfit. As it is a cheaper price, it does not feel as nice a quality as the revlon did, but it is still ok and good for the price. It needs at least 2 coats to look reasonable but I would recommend 3 to make it look up to its full potential! Im going to give this nail polish called Times Square Tangerine Creme from NYC a 6 stars out 10 because the quality is not brilliant but the colour is really nice!
Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed, if you have any comments please comment! haha and please follow :)

Revlon nail paint review: Plum Night!(:


Revlon Nail Paint Review - Plum Night!
Sorry about my weird face in this picture, haha, it was taken late last night and to be quite honest, i was knackered! Anyways, on to the review!
This nail polish cost around the £7 mark from boots. It is from the brand REVLON which is one of the more expensive makeup counters in boots though it is still drugstore priced. The colour is Plum Night which is a beautiful deep purple colour. I think this would be an amazing colour for autumn and especially winter as it is a warm and comforting colour. Although it is summer, I really like to wear it now as it gives a nice edge to a floral outfit etc! Its also really good quality. You could make do with only 1 coat as its a nice thick but not too thick consistency. With 2 coats it looks amazing and is really quick to dry! The only downside to this polish is that it chips quite easily. Mine chipped on about the 2nd day which is not too bad but, at the same time, not too good either. Overall I would give this nail polish 8 stars out of 10 because I really love this colour for all seasons and I think it is very versatile and beautiful quality!
