As I browsed the shelves of Superdrug, I found a nail colour kept catching my eye - it was the beautiful cobalt blue, the nail polish is question was the shade Peace Out by the brand Lottie London. As it was unlike any other shade in my much too large nail polish collection and it was only £2.99 (originally £5.99 but had been reduced), of course, I had no second thoughts popping it in my basket. However somewhere in the back of my mind, I found myself thinking I'm probably not going to wear this too much, it's a bit of a statement colour, no wonder I don't already own something similar. I had put this nail polish buy down to being in a bit of a strange mood, that I felt like making a statement with my nail colour (I know, it's just a blue nail polish it's not that big of a deal, but what can I say, I'm an over thinker). When I applied the colour, I realised strange mood or not, I was attracted to the colour, because, guess what? I like the colour. My strange mood didn't have all that much to do with it, although I expect it will be a colour which is reapplied when a similar mood strikes.
When I got home I excitedly painted my nails. The colour applied evenly and it just needed two fine coats to cover the nails completely.
Once my nails were painted, that was it, I was in love with this nail polish. There's a slightly purple tinge to the blue colour, and the colour sits somewhere between being dark and bright. The shade is neutral enough that it can be practically worn with any outfit but slightly unconventional so that it would also add a subtle statement to an outfit.
At the low price, I didn't anticipate the longest wearability for the nail polish, however, with a good top coat, there was nowhere near as much chipping as I'd expected, it lasted a good few days before the chipping began. Of course, as the shade is far from the most subtle colour when the chipping did start, it looked awful and I had to either touch up or removed the colour.
Overall I'd definitely recommend this nail colour is fancy picking up a new shade, I think this colour is beyond beautiful (and almost matches my bathroom tiles exactly - that's always a plus, isn't it?). The quality is great considering the low price point, and I think my nails look pretty cool.
What do you think of this colour?
