2013 looks to be the year when nail polish companies go a little further in terms of texture
and up the ante with various brands going for gritty textures such as sand and leather finishes.
As always Nails Inc have their finger on the pulse when it comes to new trends and are one
of the first brands to put their textured polish offering on the table in the form of the limited edition concrete collection which comprises of four bright shades with unique texturised lids!
I have been trying out Nails Inc Concrete Effect Polish in Marble Arch which is a bright, ripe tomato red shade that is not only perfect for the impeding Valentine's Day (sigh)
but also a great bright summer shade that is a little different from the norm due to the gritty,
matte, sand like finish.
Truthfully I never expected to like textured polishes, I thought the idea was bizarre and one that wouldn't translate all that well on to the nails but in reality the finish is pretty cool
and ideal for those like myself that aren't all that skilled at applying nail polish
as it hides a multitude of sins so to speak.
Yes it feels bizarre on the nails but kudos to Nails Inc for giving us something a little different!

Hi! this colour is amazing, I am definitely going to have to invest now, so so hot.
ReplyDeleteI did a review on the monument (lime/yellow) colour,
I'd love it if you had a look :)

Is it more difficult to remove? Its really pretty x
ReplyDeleteThat a cool effect; I had heard about these polishes, but I just couldn't picture them. But I actually quite like it! Xo
ReplyDeletethis looks amazing, I wasn't impressed with the other textures that bands have been coming out with (felt and fur..ew!) but this looks so good, it's edgy and different, but doesn't look misplaced, a really clever concept :')
ReplyDeleteWow i love this
ReplyDeletekate @ sparkle dust xx
that looks like such an amazing nail effect, i didnt think the texture woult actually be rough and gritty!:)

I'm still not sure about these! They must be so rough on your hands when you brush against your nail! The tone of the red is lovely though

Love the idea of this, but I doubt I could justify the price for a nail polish :(

I can't work out if I like that or not but it certainly nice to see something a little different. I seen pots to do fluffy nails by MUA today in Superdrug. I thought about it for a minute and then changed my mind haha.

This looks amazing!! It reminds me of that stuff that was put down in playgrounds in parks... astro turf? I hope they do more colours if they haven't already!
ReplyDeleteSuch an interesting effect! I want to see it in person.
ReplyDeletelooks so cool/pretty on you but I think I would get so aggravated by it, I love my nails to be one plain colour and all smooth haha! x

That effect is amazing, it would look so good in a cobalt blue

wow.,.this is so cool !!!
ReplyDeleteLove the effect. I nought this polish in the nude colour the other day, along with the leather one, i hope the textures differ as the leathery one was a little rough on the nails.
ReplyDeleteI just got one of these is a nude/grey colour, if it hide a multitude of sins then I can't wait to try it! xx

ReplyDeleteso strange.... what's it like to get off?
ReplyDeletexx
Wow, that looks so cool!X:X:X
ReplyDeleteI think this looks better because of the brightness of the red! I don't think I am keen on the leather version that they have brough out though! Xx
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing colour, I really want to wear it
