This polish is a new one to me, and it's a one for all of you bargainistas. This colour is from US based , cheap as chips, brand L.A. Colors. It isn't that widely available in the UK but I have seen it on a few bargain make up stalls, and if you're lucky enough to have one near you then you can often find full L.A. Colors stands in a discount store called Boyes which you find in various towns and cities across Northern England, the Midlands and on the East Coast. If you've got a store near you it's well worth having a look in, I have a few stores near me and it's one of those shops that you never come out of empty handed.
I talked about a couple of products from L.A. Colors in the past (click on the Beauty Product Directory link above to read them) but this is only the second nail polish that I've tried.
I'm a big fan of blue nail and given that this one L.A. Colors Color Craze Nail Polish in NP 421, Static Electricity was only 99p, it was a must have. It's a little bit more subtle than a true, neon, electric blue, but I would still class it a bright blue.
The bottle is a shorter, stubbier version of the traditional OPI bottle, and it comes with a very slim brush. The polish has quite a liquidy consistency, so the first coat was very streaky. Thankfully the polish was quite quick drying and you could achieve good coverage on most nails with the addition of a second coat. The finish was even and really glossy even without the addition of a top coat.
The wear time was decent, I managed three days without a chip, but if you wanted to improve the longevity then you could of course use a top coat.
For just 99p I think that this polish was well worth picking up, I love the colour and despite the budget price point the wear and application was pretty decent. Have you tried any products from L.A. Colors? Let me know you recommendations in the comments x
