nails inc.Kensington Gel Effect and Bond Street Gel Effect.

so the day has arrived ,my new nails inc. Gel polishes have arrived.
i chose the 2 colours i will get the wear out of for winter.i love purples and Burgundy colours for the colder months.
you can find nails inc here for all your wants.http://www.nailsinc.com/shop

so here are KENSINGTON HIGH STREET GEL EFFECT POLISH,£14.00
and BOND STREET GEL EFFECT POLISH £14.00
kensington high street and bond street Gel Effect polish

the photos do not do these polishes real justice as the colours are so good on ,the Gel Effect has whats called  plasticisers built in and provides a high gloss ,high shine,finish.without the use of a UV lamp.all in the comfort of your own home.the polish is highly pigmented and application was effortless,glided well.dries very quick much quicker than the top coat they released earlier.
the shape of the nails inc bottles changed to a flatter bottle still not sure on these but I'm sure over time and more bottles i will get use to them.
i also have found the gloss finish is harder set and not so jelly like the top coat is,so if you brought the topcoat you will understand what i mean.

here is the
BOND STREET GEL EFFECT POLISH,
 a lovely deep purple.£14.00
