Born Pretty Store Holographic Nail Polish

Hello all, recently I was contacted by Cynthia from Born Pretty Store seeing if I was willing to review some products from them. I already shop at this store and have plenty of products that I bought myself so I was really excited to do this review as I already enjoy a majority of their products. I was able to pick out the items for review and all the opinions expressed are my own. I received three items to review; two stamping plates and a holographic polish. For a review and details on the stamping plates please see my Instagram page and for the polish just keep reading!

The polish I am reviewing is item #6410, it is a 6 ml bottle and the shade is a lovely holographic teal. As per usual I conducted a wear test with no base or top coat to truly test the quality of the nail polish in question.


 Three coats 








The formula of this shade was alright overall, I was not completely happy that it required three coats for full opacity. However while I was applying it, each coat went on really smoothly and left no streaks so I enjoyed the formula overall.


Day three of wear.

My first chip was three days after my initial application on my middle finger. This is pretty much usual for me as the middle finger is the longest it seems to always chip first. This does not surprise me and I felt as though the polish was holding up nicely with minimal tip wear.



Day five of wear

After day five my manicure started to look very worn down, the chips on my middle finger had expanded and I got a chip on the side of my index finger. I kept the manicure for one more day after this update and found there was no change but I did remove it after six days.

Overall, I thought the quality of the nail polish was fairly average as I would hope for my manicure to last me five days and look decent. I did however really enjoy the color of this holographic polish, compared to my collection it was unique in tone and I did get complimented on the shade various times. All in all, I would definitely pick up some more of these holographic nail polishes for their color variety and decent formula. Born Pretty Store is fairly good with their pricing and does run plenty of sale but if you find a regular priced item that you would like, you can use my discount code ANNSW10 for 10% off. Hope you enjoyed the review!
