Review - Models Own

I was sooooo excited to hear that Boots were stocking Models Own in some of their larger stores (unfortunately not my local one) and what's even better is that until 15th June all self selection cosmetics are on 3 for 2!

So my nearest store which had Models Own already was Lincoln and I visited it on Tuesday to have a look at the selection. I was impressed as the stand was simple and everything was easy to find with only a few items out of stock.

I was instantly attracted to the nail varnishes and decided on the one in the photo (Green Flash) which is a sparkly lime green and a sparkly pink (Pink Fizz).

After reading many blogs which all seemed to rave about how good Models Own was I couldn't wait to try it out when I got home so last night I decided to take off the old and paint on the green.

So......you do need two coats (you can get away with one but the colour didn't seem so intense) but unlike some other brands you don't have to wait until it dries before applying another layer you can do it straight away. It wasn't gloppy and it painted on well. It also dried very fast and I didn't have any smudges after doing the 'I think it's 100% dry so lets do some housework', so for the first time in AGES I have perfect nails.

Overal I am more than impressed and would defiantly buy Models Own again and would defiantly recommend it to a friend.
