I'm still rather attached to the nail effects trend that's going around - perhaps somewhat obsessed and I'll eye in on all the other brands that are bringing out versions too - even to the point of noticing New Look having a version. While being in Superdrug time-wasting on my lunch I noticed that MUA have additionally launched a version. I could rave around MUA nail varnishes for ages - I couldn't recommend them higher - a brand who's "normal" varnishes come in at a mere £1 yet lasted a whole week on application. Which is outstanding for any brand especially with the hell I put them through at work.
They've named the effects "nail quake" and comes in a range of six colours each retailing at £2.99. With colours featuring jet black to rosy pink to purple, each I chose the Shattered Ice shade - a shiny silvery. I've found it a lot less gooey [if that's the right term] then other versions of similar products, it was therefore a lot easier to apply. The brush is a lot thinner too - which some may see as a cheap thing - but it actually aids the application process - limiting the chances of overlapping and letting you add a thin little line down the side. The affect occurs just like the others but it occurs is a more linear way and in larger groupings - a look which is very impressive and does make a good statement.
