NOTD- Eyeko lilac polish

I was recently sent a very prettily wrapped package containing some Eyeko nail varnishes and a eyeliner pen.

Pastel nails seem to be the trend for Spring and as I don't own any pastel nail varnishes, I decided to paint my nails using the Lilac polish.

(one coat)

It turned out to be a beautiful Lavender lilac shade with a glossy finish (its a little more vibrant in real life).

I found the brush easy to use and I only got the tinest bit of nail varnish on my fingertips (which is very impressive considering I normally end up with nail varnish on almost every finger!)

I originally did 2 coats but when painting the second hand I realised that as long as I had enough nail varnish on the brush, one coat was all I needed for a streak free even colour.

(two coats)

Two coats gave a slightly deeper, more pigmented colour but I actually prefer it with just one coat. What do you think?

What are your favourite nail varnishes for the Spring time?

  8. I'm loving pink and lilac polish right now. Most of the ones i've tried so far need two coats otherwise they look a bit streaky and wishy washy. I'm lusting after the new Illamasqua Body Electrics shades at the mo! x

  13. I really like the color that you used for your nail. I wish I was into nail polish but I don't find it hygienic when it comes to cooking and I'm always afraid of chipped paints when processing with food.

  14. peonyinlove- Yeah I can imagine, chipped nail varnish in food wouldn't be very nice. You can always wear them on weekends and special occasions though x
