Happy New Year, everyone!
Here are the swatches of Nails Inc Victoria that I promised you a couple days ago. I want to start off by saying this is actually my first bottle of Nails Inc nail polish and I really didn’t know what to expect of the formula, but the reviews seem to be majorly positive.
Victoria can be described as a bloody dark cherry jelly, so it’s actually a bit sheer. I had to build it up to full opacity in three coats for these swatches, because I’m personally not a huge fan of dark jellies in general. The formula is quite runny and despite being very careful I still experienced some pooling over my cuticles.
This is one of those rare polishes that photographs well and true to color, while looking almost exactly the same regardless of the light conditions. To show you the comparison, I included two pictures taken with and without flash. Don’t they look nearly identical?
When I was done swatching, I decided to dress it up a little and added some glitter. I added a nice thick coat of Julep Erica over my ring finger, and a little hint of Nubar Blondie over the remaining four. I think the result is quite lovely 🙂
All Nails Inc polishes are free from formaldehyde, toluene and DBP.
