Nails Inc Sprinkles - Lazy Swatch

How about something sweet for a Monday morning?
Gorgeous pastels packed with glitter.
The postman woke me up at 7.12am this morning to bring me these beauties. Never once in my ten years of living in London has the postman come so early and had I not been expecting these I would not have bothered to look out the window let alone answer the door! I saw the early arrival as a sign to get swatching!
Left to right: Sugar House Lane, Pudding Lane, Sweets Way and Topping Lane
YUMMMMM!!!
Are they not flippin' gorgeous!!?

Nails Inc is a brand I tend to overlook. At £11 a pop they're up there with the big guys and so I want to be wowed either by the formula or finish. The ones I own are freebies from buying Diet Coca Cola (yuck) and they're just so so, which has put me off buying anything they bring out until I saw these. They're just delicious, there's no other way of putting it. Each coat dries fast and full coverage can be achieved in 2 coats and already I've been convinced to give their other polishes a try.

At first I thought the glitter would be matte but they're not which was disappointing for like a second! The combination of base colour and glitter makes up for this and if I'm completely honest these are so much nicer and not to mention longer lasting than those fish eggs whatnots!!!


Take a closer look and tell me which is your favourite. Mine's Sweets Way the only one that doesn't correlate with the cupcake sticker!

Availability: UK - Nails Inc website, US - Sephora in July

Update: Just wanted to let you guys know that this is a pretty hungry glitter and requires several layers of top coat if you want that smooth glossy finish.

Don't forget to enter my competition for a chance to win a Nails Inc Sprinkles of your choice.

  12. Ohhh these are lovely. I've never been a massive fan of Nails Inc, I have a few of the ones given away with Glamour, and I got one as a gift but I may have to splash out on one of these! xoxo

    1. The ones I had were freebies too. If I had to recommend any Nails Inc poishes it would be these!

  20. I want Sweets Way!!! I'm with you about Nails Inc. though, I always believed that for a specialist polish brand selling at £11 a polish, it should be an absolute dream to apply - and it's not. You get better-covering brushes in 17's £2.99 polishes. :(

  21. These are sooo cute! Sweets Way is my favorite, but for £11 each? Maybe I'll pass :T

    ReplyDelete
  22. I absolutely love these!!! They're all super cute!

  23. Wow! These are fantastic! Anyone know a good way to find these in the US?

    ReplyDelete
  24. Those look great on you. I like Pudding Lane the best, but am not sure about the pastel blue tone. Pastels look horrible on me. Do you think that one could layer this over a darker blue and still look good? Thanks!

  25. Anyone know if these will be sold at sephora in the US?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Oh gosh! They are like premade jelly sandwiches! How cool!

  27. Thanks for posting these, I keep looking at them. All are gorgeous though my favorites are Sweet Way and Topping Lane.

    @MsLinz I'm almost definite that these will be sold at Sephora. I saw one of these featured in a magazine that designated Sephora as the place to get it.
