Nails Inc Portobello Neon Nail Polish



Stop the press I have found my summer nail shade. Yup I'm putting it out there for all to see that Nails Inc Portobello Neon will be the shade that frequents my digits from late May all the way through until the last days of summer in September.

Okay that may be a little optimistic but you can bet your sweet cheeks (look at me keeping it clean) that it will be my manicure and pedicure or a good portion of the summer, well when the sun is blazing in the sky at least. Enough of my glorified version of a Scottish summer (in reality it is two days of sun and back to doom and gloom) and onto the one Nails Inc shade that everyone who loves a good neon polish should own.

Nails Inc Portobello Neon is a bright coral that is the perfect blend of orange and pink that has me utterly hooked. You see years ago I may have viewed a programme that contained Jodie Marsh (if you aren't British I dare you to Google her...I dares ya!) and on her ridiculously long talons she had a bright coral polish that has haunted me since. Now this was pre-body building and tattooed Marsh, we are talking the days of wearing three belts as an outfit and before most beauty blogs and the power of twitter existed. A teenage or it could have been pre-teen me I have no real grasp of time made a promise to hunt down a shade similar and now I finally have it in my clutches and boy does it feel good.

The only downside is that Nails Inc Portobello Neon Nail Polish is slightly sheer and streaky so you do have to apply a white base coat and two coats to get a nice even finish. Oh I should also mention that it applies matte but with a colour this pretty who can stay mad at it? As a finishing point it is very seldom that a miniature bottle of anything let alone polish persuades me to buy the full size version but an 11ml bottle is winging its way to me as we speak...

Next on my Nails Inc hit list is Botanical Gardens...my, my is that a pretty mint green!
