Whilst I absolutely love the shimmery blue/purple duochrome shade of W7's Metallic Neptune, I really, really, really hate the formula. This beauty sadly chips straight away on me, no matter what top coat I use (you can see in the photo how it's starting to peel away from the edges already after just a few hours of wear!). However, I still can't bear to see it leave my nail polish collection. I might start looking for a more harder wearing dupe when my #spendingban is over.
Do you keep nail polishes that chip straight away or do you bin them?

i keep them too. chanel and essie chip like crazy on me but i love the colours too much.
ReplyDeletemetallic neptune is lovely. i still haven't tried w7 polishes.
xo
Yeah Essie nail polishes are horrendous for chipping but I still keep mine too. W7 polishes are pretty hit or miss IMO but they're cheap and have some gorgeous colours so can't grumble too much xx
DeleteOh this is such a gorgeous polish, it's such a shame that it chips so easily! I have Tinsel Town by China Glaze which is beautiful, but I have the same problem! I've never tried any W7 polishes, but I have seen them quite a few times in TK Maxx! xx
ReplyDeleteIt's so annoying when pretty nail polishes chip so quickly! :( xx
DeleteI normally donate them to my little sister :') x
ReplyDeleteMy sister and I are always doing that - we swap a lot! :) x
DeleteI mostly bin them or give them to my mum, 'cause I can't be doing with chipping nails! x
ReplyDeleteIt's very annoying isn't it?! x
DeleteI have jupiter and mercury from W7 and they chip like crazy as well, so pretty though! :) xx
ReplyDeleteYeah I have Mercury as well and it's just as bad as Neptune, grrr! xx
DeleteLove this colour, I always hate it when nice shades chip too, such a shame! x

DeleteThis is gorgeous, such a shame it chips so easily! I definitely still keep some of mine which do, I try and layer about 3 coats of topcoat on! xo
ReplyDeleteI might give that a go! x

It is! xx
DeleteSuch a pretty colour. xo
ReplyDeleteThanks Angelica :) xx
DeleteI really like the color of this. I'm a fan of OPI polishes- maybe they make a similar color? I'm off to do some research!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post!
If you find one let me know! Love OPIs :)
DeleteGorgeous colour - shame about the horrid formulation! Hope you manage to find a similar shade after your ban :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'll definitely be on the hunt for one! :)
DeleteThis is such a pretty colour. Bummer about the chipping situation though! I saw one like this in Topshop, I think they do a simular one from models own too. Great post x
ReplyDeleteOoo thanks, will have to check those out! x
