In Bodycare the other day picking up some essentials, I was drawn (as I always am) to the nail polish, and convinced myself that just one couldn't hurt.. And so I brought home this beauty; 'Mermaid' by Technic, which set me back all of 99p.
It's a blue glitter in a clear base, which flashes green when it catches the light. Here I've used it as an accent nail over 'Fly' from the OPI Nicki Minaj collection - two coats of 'Fly' and three of 'Mermaid'.
For the price I can't complain but I just wish there was a bit more glitter in this.. It's spread so thinly that it's difficult to get it even and even with three coats it's still really subtle - you'd struggle to build it up properly without having nails an inch thick! Aside from that, it went on nicely and dried reasonably quickly, and it does look pretty so I'm happy.

It looks so pretty and what a bargain for 99p
