H & M Hello Kitty Cool Summer NOTD
I decided to try out H & M Hello Kitty polish in Cool Summer which I got in my swap from Monika as a quick NOTD .
Cool Summer is a purple glitter polish with blue, purple and silver glitter in it. Don't you just love the bottle shape?? I know I do! And it's Hello Kitty too so another big tick! I love how Hello Kitty is giving the peace sign on the pic on the bottle LOL.
The polish is quite sheer so I did 3 coats (pictured above) for opacity. The brush isn't the easiest to use as it's a little.. floppy I guess and can leave bald spots if you don't work fast. It dried quite quickly and to a semi-matte finish. The finish is a little gritty because of the glitter so it's probably good to use a thick topcoat like Seche Vite to get it smooth, but my bottle needs replacing so I used 2 coats of Nailene Acrylic Strong Topcoat instead.
It's a very cute purple glitter polish and I don't have others like it so I'm very happy to add it to my collection! I didn't get time to stamp otherwise I would have stamped Hello Kitty of course =p
Thanks for looking =)

ReplyDelete@Monika: Next time I use it I will definitely stamp Hello Kitty =D Thanks for sending me this gorgeous polish!
ReplyDelete@shazzii: Thank you for tagging me!
@Enamel Girl: I hope you find it, it's definitely one to get if you can.
@Asami: Me too! The characters they have are just too cute!
@Carli: Now that you mention it I totally agree. The grittiness of the polish is one of the things I don't like so much about this polish but it's worth it!
@jbrobeck: I wanted to try this out already and then after reading your comment I definitely had to try it first =D
@ipehishere: I agree!
ReplyDelete@Mae: Thank you Mae!
@AnnKiins: Yes you would think pink wouldn't you! I shrieked too when I opened up the package lol. Hmmm I don't have any Ciate polishes myself so can't compare but in the pics I've seen the Ciate bottles seem a little smaller..?
@Chris: Yep gotta love Hello Kitty ;) Now I want more to add to my collection!
@Pretty & Lily Nail: Thanks ladies!
@Cel: The colourful glitter is the highlight of this polish!
ReplyDelete@Steph: Thanks Steph! =)
@Winnie: The polish wasn't as sheer as some others so it wasn't too big a deal. The Hello Kitty factor made it ok =p
@Kim Hye Rin: Glad you like it Kim. Thank you for stopping by my blog and commenting!
@Smita: I'll definitely be wearing this colour when the weather warms up!
@Alice: Thanks Alice!
