I'm not to sure why but I sort of had high expectations for this nail polish. I think it's because of the description on the website "combines a base coat, high gloss color, and a chip-resistant top coat in one simple step". I picked up the two colours in the shades Mint Mojito and Black Diamond.

argh sorry for the bad background! ugly work kitchen table!!
I've been looking for another black nail polish because lately I have been using a BYS matte nail polish which I love to pieces but its almost all gone.. So I was on the hunt for another black nail polish and I saw that Covergirl had buy one get one free so I decided to get these two.. The mint one because I have been reading EVERYWHERE about mint nail polishes.. I blame Lily Pebbles and Vivianna.
ANYWAY. these nail polishes I am a bit iffy about. The black one you definitely need more than 2 coats as it was quiet transparent for the first two coats, unless you put it on really thick which I found to be difficult to control. I found that both colours became quite streaky and it was difficult to make it even.. if that is even the right word? I think the mint colour I had on for about three days before it started to chip, which I think is good? I've just painted my nails with the black so I will update you on how long that lasts without chipping!
Chipped nail polish frustrates me greatly so I think I need to invest in some more winter colours as most of my nail polishes are bright summer colours. I think I should also get into the habit of changing my nails on a regular basis..

I think the nail polishes are okay - not the best. I will probably go and pick up some more colours and then maybe that will change my mind!
Has anyone else tried these nail polishes? What color would you suggest me to try next?
