BK Born Pretty Store nail polish - review and swatches

Hello lovelies,

Hope you're all doing well! We are currently experiencing another very cold wave here in UK so I feel like icicle! But I keep going..slower but going :D Today I will show you two nail polishes from the Born Pretty Store which surprised me a bit so they are worth blogging about.

The nail polishes are in a small square bottle like Max Factor polishes. Each bottle contains 8ml of polish and costs $2.95 before discount (use code LHJ61 for 10% OFF anything). There is 42 shades available, you can check them out and purchase at the Born Pretty Store.



BK #28 - pastel blue creme shade. My expectations were pretty low so I was very surprised that it applied very smoothly and two thicker coats gave me this perfect coverage. The polish also dried quite fast and removal was easy.

BK #33 - pale green creme shade. This one was slightly different story. It also applied easily but the pigmentation was lower and I needed three coats for full coverage. It dries fast and removal is easy. I'd like to mention that it smells quite strongly.

  4. They're both really pretty! I'm impressed the blue only needed 2 coats... I find pastels can be really bad they often need at least 3 costs so I'm pretty impressed especially considering how cheap the polish is! I think I'll go order some :)

  7. The blue one is so lovely! Haven't you got any information on its ingredients, by any chance? (Since you've mentioned the strong smell.)

    Loving your blog, by the way!
