Nail polishes are one of
those things that I feel guilty about spending too much money on. I just
feel that it don't 'benefit' me as such like a skincare product might.
It's basically paint for your nails, that doesn't penetrate the skin or the
nails so why spend a fortune?! This means in always on the lookout for
budget nail polishes that will do the job. So long as there are good
colour range, good lasting power and applies well - I'm not fussed!
Enter Lidl's own Cien Nail Polish*. I was really excited to try this out as it's only £1.99! Yes you've read that correctly! The shade I have is 'Midnight Violet'. Purple is one of my favourite colours and I think purple nail polishes can look really chic especially in the transition period from summer to autumn. It's vibrant yet deep enough for autumn.
The
polish itself was opaque in two coats for me. Although if you want a
really intense colour, you can go for three coats. It applies really
evenly and the brush is really precise.
I didn’t apply a top coat and you can see it has a glossy finish. I was pleasantly surprised how good the
formula was. It wasn’t streaky whatsoever! For a supermarket store to get a beauty product
so right is pretty great. I’m keen to
give the other shades a go too.
What do you
think of Cien Nail Polish? Have you
tried anything else from Lidl’s beauty range?
