Models own: Velvet goth - valerian review


Hey guys, thank you again for taking the time to look at my blog! Today I am reviewing Valerian from the new range of Models Own (my fav. brand ever!) If you don't already know the range is called velvet goth it features deep colours - deep purple, red, blue, green and black with chunks of different sizes of glitter in. The effect is a matte effect and dries reasonably quick, I wouldn't say it was bump free when it dries as the glitter in the polish makes it a tiny bit bumpy ( nothing that can't be smoothed out with a topcoat!) the formula is quite thick and I found it more difficult to apply than other collections of Models Own polishes in my polish collection- nevertheless it's certainly not hard to apply! But the end result is ABSOLUTELY beautiful and I am well and truly in love with this polish!

i have to say I prefer the nail varnish with a topcoat, it really brings out the glitter and I  think it makes it look more pretty and I also love glossy polishes :D . I also purchased 2 more polishes from the Velvet Goth range and took advantage if the boots offer, I will be reviewing those in a few days time! I also bought the Bubblegum ice neon colour which I love! And i am coming up with new designs to show you all! 

I give Models Own - Valerian a ... 8/10 because I adore the polish soo much as blue is my favourite colour, and the glitter gives an amazing look but it's slightly thick and and a little uneven when applied. However it gives a great coverage, I can't wait to try the others out to show you all! 
Until next time,
Love Kels x
