MUD Nail Polish Review

I picked up a bottle of MUD nail polish when I needed some last minute to do a look for the international week I did (the German flag!). I have this in the shade 'chili pepper' which - as you'd expect - is a bright, bold red.

MUD Nail Polish is cheap, at $5 ish, but comes packaged with a plastic and cardboard outer, which is unusual for that price range. The bottle itself is round and sleek, with the black screw top cap housing a good, solid brush that is easy to use.

The polish requires a couple of coats to get a decent cover and colour, but sets well, taking less time to dry than expected from a cheaper polish and settling to a smooth, glossy finish which is further enhanced if you add a coat of clear to seal it.

This wears okay - starts to flake in tiny amounts around the edges by about day two and really needs redoing after about day 4, which is fairly standard for polish in my opinion, making this a run of the mill polish which is good for the price, but not one I'd search out in a huge hurry (unless I was in the same position again of having to find something and having limited options.

All in all, you won't be disappointed with this polish if you're only looking for a couple of days from it :)

I grabbed just one of these nail polishes to try in the shade 'Empurpled'- A shimmery, slightly metallic bright violet. Gorgeous color and densely pigmented.

I'm very impressed with the pigment/ richness in color of this nail polish, it's one of few that I own where only one coat is necessary for a fully opaque and even coverage. It applies smoothly and evenly and dries really quickly.

The cylindrical shaped bottle seems quite large as the cap is equally as wide as the bottle, but it's 13ml which is about the norm when it comes to nail polish. The wand is on the shorter side and brush is nothing remarkable but it does the job just fine.

This nail polish doesn't wear all that well, it's chipping off by day 2, so it may not be for you if you like your nail paint to hold up for the better part of a week.

I think this polish is good value for $5, if I saw it in a shade I really liked while out shopping I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.

I picked up this nail colour from Countdown . I noticed these in the beauty aisle. I always end up in that aisle every time I go shopping . They had a sale on at the time .

This nail polish comes in a clear bottle where you can see the product through it . I got a silver glitter shade . Consistency is liquid slightly textured with all the glitter .

Application is great guides on easily . I was able to make a statement nail nicely with this shade . It took 20 minutes dry time in between coats .

Overall I believe this is priced fairly . One bottle with last you many months . I got about four days wear and it began to chip . I was happy with my outcome . Would make a good stocking filler.

cheap and cheerful. It was hard to walk past this polish - bright neon pink for $5! wow! It applies well, the brush is ok, and there is minimal mess. Two coats are a must, but the first coat dries reasonably quickly. I think this nail polish performs well for such a cheap price. I think if you want to try out a colour for a night out, this is a polish which is great.

I have 2 of the glitter ones from this line, Ruby Shoes was the first one I bought and then I bought Glitterazzi around Christmas time. These nail polishes are freakin' amazing, especially considering they're only $5 each.

Ruby Shoes, as it implies, is a beautiful red glittery polish. Glitterazzi is a combination of small and large bits of glitter that are red, gold, turquoise and pink. It's so easy to get an even coating of glitter on the nail. These aren't those kind of polishes that you end up with maybe 5 bits of glitter on your nail. Put on 2 coats and you could wear it on its own. I love these polishes and I really want to try out the base colours from this line!
