Claire's Technopop
Every time I go to Claire's, I get all excited by their layered nail polish mostly, because I don't "get" it. What color comes out? Why don't they mix? Questions! Normally, all the bottles have been shaken like crazy by the teenieboppers and kids that wander in there, but I saw this (and another) and was all kinds of excited. It's a little hard to tell, but each layer is not just a neon but also has glitter in it! SOLD. I paid $5 but they were having buy one, get one half off at the time.
I used a coat of Seche Retain, 3 coats of Technopop, and a top coat of Seche Vite. The brush wasn't too bad, but the smell wasn't the most pleasant despite them being big 3 free. The polish didn't pool in my cuticles but it wasn't very thick either. I NEEDED 3 coats to get ... well, this.
Blech. What IS this? The first two layers were definitely pea soup puke vomit green with sparkles. In my 3rd layer, I started pulling some of the pink, which you see in the middle of my index, middle and pinkie fingers.
The shade picture isn't much better. Overall I'm VERY disappointed with this polish, and have half a mind to shake it out of spite. Not a happy camper here.
Claire's is available world wide or online [official website].
Shake it, shake it! Hee hee hee! Bad polish!
ReplyDeleteI think the label is misprinted, it should read
ReplyDeleteTechnopoop!
I love the layers in the bottle but everyone I've gotten did this...some horifyingly ugly color, no layers, swirls just yuck!
Their layered polish is SO ugly on. I bought 2 of them because like you it intrigued me. I was so disappointed lol
ReplyDeleteI see green and a little touch of pink. I've wondered how these polishes work and what they look.
ReplyDeleteEw! I think these polishes are for looking at, not using.
ReplyDeleteIs sad :s the package is really cute, in nails it is discuting :s to be honest, I don't really like it at all, I love some Claire's products, but not their nail polishes for sure.
ReplyDeleteHahaha, seriously, what is it? I've always wondered about the layered polish, too. It's almost cute enough to have a bottle just laying around because it looks so nice, but on the nail? Bleh. Thanks for the review, though! Now I can save myself the trip into Claire's!
ReplyDeleteOMG! What is that?! That color totally took me off guard, I didn't cheat and scroll down before reading, so I was surprised. Eww Claires.
ReplyDeleteI agree, not super cute. I wish they would layer ONLY colors that do look fantastic all mixed up. Because in the bottle the layered polish looks really super neat. Oh well, they can't all be wins.
