Max Factor's Mini Nail Polish in Acid Lime

Seriously, all nail polishes should come in wee bottles like this. How many of us actually finish up an entire bottle of nail polish, save the base and top coat? It’s cheaper and cuter too. Come on brands, get on it. 😛

I didn’t think I’d like this acid lime shade that much. It’s lime green, almost yellow but not quite with a jelly finish. For one thing though, it makes your hands look gloriously tanned (if that’s up your alley). When I first swatched it on my nails, I thought “eeuww, can’t do this colour. It looks too young on me!“. But after having it on for a few hours, I decided to keep it on for another day. And another day. It’s such an apt shade for summer that just grows on you. At least, it did on me.

While I really like the colour, I don’t like the formula at all. It’s streaky and with every brush stroke, it created drag marks. Thank goodness it does go back to normal when the lacquer dries.

Other than that, oh yeah, my nails and I are all ready for summer! 😀

Max Factor’s Mini Nail Polishes retail at AU$5.95 each.

What about you? Is this colour your thing at all?

    I have a little Max Factor nail polish like that in in very lovely reddish colour. It’s my favourite and I find the little brush makes it soooo much easier to apply (i have two left hands when it comes to applying nail polish 😉 )

      When I uncapped it, I was delighted to find such a tiny brush! Okay, I do prefer bigger brushes ‘cos it makes it easier for me to apply but cuteness levels? Way way high 😛

    I’m with you on this one, girlfriend – all nail polish should come in these half-sized bottles. It make it much easier to justify a nail polish stash 😉

      I KNOW RIGHT?? Cheaper and smaller … therefore, people will buy more. Simple math, brands! 😛

    Love it! Love the color for I find it classy and perfect for any occasion. I also love small bottles with small brushes for they are easier to apply in my observation.

      It’s a beautiful colour and comes in such a cute bottle too 🙂

    That’s such a pretty shade! And I so agree that all nail polishes should come in smaller bottles. Maybe then I could finish one. 🙂

      Haha I know! Between you and me, I probably won’t even finish the mini bottled ones. I’ll have more space to buy more! 😛
