Giving Topshop another go..

In my last post, I wrote about how I bought a Topshop nail varnish last year and I wasn't that keen on it. Since then, I've spoken to a few people who have said that they got nail varnishes from there and they were really pleased. I was in Topshop yesterday and I was really curious to find out whether it is only particular colours that are watery and thin or whether it was all of them, so I bought 2 nail varnishes and decided to try them out.

The first one I went with was an orange colour, the name of  it is Causing A Stir. I was fascinated by the colour, I've seen shades like it before but never this particular one. Plus, at the moment I'm into oranges/peaches and minty greens/bright blues.

 Unlike the Green Room colour I tried last time, the first coat on this nail varnish, comes out quite thick so you only really need 1 maybe 2 coats. It dries pretty fast too which is always a bonus. I was really pleased with this colour, it dries the same colour as you see in the pot as well which is great.

The second colour I bought was Air Kisses. This is a really light blue colour. I thought it was a really nice spring/summer colour.


Like Causing A Stir, this one is nice and thick so you only need 1 to 2 coats, in the picture I only have on 1 coat. It dries fast, as well. This one dries the same colour as you see in the pot, too.

Neither of the two I've wrote about today are anything like the Green Room in anyway. They do take a little bit longer to dry but that's because they are thicker. I am in love with both of these nail varnishes, couldn't be happier with them.

I think with Topshop, it's a chance on whether you get a watery colour or not. All 3 nail varnishes are from the same range and shop. It's just whether you are prepared to pay £5 a pot where there could be a chance you've got a watery colour. 

Both of these colours are on the Topshop website if anyone is interested, both of them are £5.

Is there any colours you have bought from Topshop that are watery and thin?
