I have a huge soft spot for Top Shop nail polishes – for the price, I think the range is good and it applies nicely too. I picked up two colours recently in lieu of one Chanel polish!
I think I was trying to replicate Chanel’s Particuliere and Peridot. I kinda failed, but still, it was fun trying!
Geography Teacher is a Camel – it’s quite unusual, other muted polishes I have are usually in the grey or taupe family rather than the warm cream group. This is actually a bit unflattering – I think it’s the yellow-ness of it but nevertheless, it’s interesting. And yes, my geography teacher had elbow pads this colour:
Hidden Treasure is a metallic greeny yellow. It’s another rather unflattering colour – I don’t know why, when I see it on my nails I think it’s actually a bit ugly. But in swatches, I think it looks fab, like the scales of a dragon.
There were loads of nice colours on the Top Shop counter, I am glad I had an idea what I wanted, otherwise I would’ve been tempted by many. many colours.
What do you think of these polishes?
I love both colors but the metallic greeny yellow is very special, hope I can find this polish, I realize from the picture that it doesn`t form bubbles and this is great, thanks for this idea and for sharing it
Both colors are prettyyy but like you, I don’t think Hidden Treasure will look nice on me. However I will still give both colors a try just for the fun of it. Weeee..
I really like Topshop nail varnishes. I use them on set a lot. They glide on so easily and dry pretty quickly. Exactly what I’m after in a varnish!
The green color is perfect I love the 2 tone affect, the camel color is nice too but I much prefer the green
I’ve been wanting to try Hidden Treasure for a while, so now maybe I’ll finally get round to it! I have a Topshop nail polish in nice n’ nude and it is absolutely fabulous! xx
