17 Lasting Fix Nail Polish

I first spotted 17 lasting fix nail varnish when I was browsing for a new eyeliner in Boots. There was an offer on the nail varnish that attracted me - a free 17 lasting fix nail varnish with every 17 product bought. As I was buying an eyeliner anyway, this was a great deal for me especially as it turned out that the eyeliner cost less than the nail varnish would have! It was really a great way of promoting a new product from Boots, as normally I wouldn't buy new nail varnishes very often so I wouldn't have been able to discover just how good this product is! The bottle is just the same as any other nail varnish bottle, a small glass bottle with a lid ...  Read the complete review

I have quite long nails at the moment so I thought I'd make the most of it and buy myself a new shade of nail polish. I have loads of bottles but as you'll all know after a while they tend to thicken up and chip easily. I wanted a dark brown metallicy colour and found what I thought was just that in the Boots 17 range. When I got it home I actually found it was a dark plummy colour and not brown, the colour on the bottle was Amaretto, my eyes aren't what they were! Still it's sometimes difficult to tell under the lighting in the shops. That's my excuse anyway. So....I put this on last Sunday, it's now Saturday and it's still on with ...  Read the complete review

I'm not really one for painting my nails until the 'summer' hit us and I could ware open toe shoes at work. I'm not a fan of toes and thought mine could do with some brightening up. I was in Boots (as most my reviews seem to start) and noticed they had an offer on, buy any Number 17 product and get a free nail varnish. At the time I was planning on buying some of their Dazzle Eye Shadow and not nail varnish. But obviously took the offer up! The free nail varnish I got and which I am reviewing is 'Tropical Island'. - My Opinion - _____________ When I read the small glass bottle it said "Up to 5 days of lasting colour. ...  Read the complete review

I have to say, I don't really paint my nails all that often. I find it to be a tedious thing to do and most of the time, I can think of better things to spend my money on. Well on this occasion, I actually didn't have anything better to spend my money on and while having a browse in the Boots make up section, this nail polish caught my eye. It was the colour that did it really. A deep purple, that is called 'Amaretto' made me want to buy it and in an unusual bout of spontaneity I decided I was going to paint my nails! So buy it I did, at a very reasonable price of somewhere around £3 for an 8ml bottle, give or take a few pennies. When I first used ...  Read the complete review

The Price It's an ok price arond £3 depending on where you buy it and available in most beauty shops such as boots, superdrug etc... The bottles a pretty small so if you work it out it probably isn't as good value as you thought. So it it any good? It's really gloopy and I found that unless it was kept in the fridge it thickened very quickly, obviously this makes it hard to apply and it just got everywhere! I didn't have to apply a second course but it was so gloopy I couldn't leave it like that! There are loads of colours and shades which is great! The colours where very bright and they came out the same colour as they looked ...  Read the complete review
