Pink Punch

I'm not normally one for buying neon nail polishes, mainly because I'm so pale and think they look pants on me - would be fine with a tan but not on my normal milky complexion, and I've never had a tan in my life (real or fake!)!

But Sarah gave me a bottle of Model's Own Pink Punch, so of course there was no harm in trying!



I actually really liked the colour - although I definitely wouldn't call it pink. Coral Punch doesn't really have the same ring to it admittedly, but it's certainly more of a neon coral than pink. Application was better than I expected, there was a bit of visible nail line going on after 2 coats but I couldn't be bothered with a third and I don't think it was noticeable!



To add some extra summery-ness, I dusted off my Konad stuff and added some gold flowers - I think the plate is M78, I did lots of multiple stamping in China Glaze Passion. Also, I'm trying out a new quick dry topcoat - Sally Hansen's Teflon Tuff. It does it's job but it's thin; I'm used to much thicker topcoats so didn't realise that the thin consistency would cause my stamping to smear! I'll be more light handed next time, hopefully it wasn't noticeable.

What are your thoughts on neon polishes? I liked this one but remain convinced it would look SO much better with a tan!

This mani was actually from Wednesday - tomorrow (Monday) I'm gonna have to cut my precious nails down 'cause of breakages... Watch this space :(

P.S. I know you've all probably seen a whole shit ton of posts on the two new Eyeko polishes so please say in the comments here if you'd rather I didn't post about them, or at least left it a while. And of course please say if you'd like me to do them ASAP - there's a slim chance that a few of you might not have seen them yet!
