Review: IQ Cosmetics Nail Effect

Hi Beauties,
Once again I must apologies for my absence! After returning from my cousins wedding in May I was thrown back (or I chose to be thrown back!) into working 4 different jobs and time flew by before I realised that I hadn't blogged in ages!

Which brings me to my first post in a while - and I must warn this is a bit of a rant post due to the quality of the product being rubbish! So I apologise in advance about the moan but very rarely do I ever blog negatively about a product and I guess the time has come. IQ Cosmetics Nail Effect in Metallic Green (€4.99) really caught my eye when I was on the hunt for some fresh Summer polishes. I loved the tone of green and the metallic sheen contained in the bottle.

Well first off the application was a little goopy and left a streaky finish despite having applied a base coat. However I hadn't pressed the panic button at that point as it was only the first coat but the streaky finish was even more apparent after the second coat! I decided the polish had to come off - except I had run out of nail polish remover and all the shops were shut! So the next morning I was straight out to top up on my remover's and when I finally did remove the hot streaky mess see what I discovered below!

To be put it plainly - I have never been so angry with a nail polish in my life! To apply so terribly and then have the cheek to stain my nails yellow! I am also partly angry because I was so in love with the colour but there is no way I'm even going to consider putting that polish on my nails again. Only now, three weeks after this mishap, have the yellow stains begun to grow out. Definitely a look I will be happy to avoid! The only plus to this situation is that I did purchase the Metallic Orange polish and had no problem with it whatsoever!
