Nordic Cap NP14 - swatches and review

This is a pretty dusky pale pink with pink glass flecks in it which makes it look a bit pearly. It's not super unique but as I said to Karin the other day, every polish has its right to 15 minutes of fame! So has this one! ;)

This is two coats with a top coat. The formula is on the thicker side but it's not really a problem to apply it. It's pretty but not fairly unique. The price is unique though, 10SEK ($1,50) and that is it's regular price! 11 ml bottle.



GOOD TO KNOW:

Type of polish: Cream/glass flecks.

Color: A pale dusky pink with pink glass flecks.

Number of coats: Two.

Formula: Ok, slightly thick but still easy to work with.

Brush: Very good! No complaints.

Top Coat: Yes, one coat. 

Color accuracy in pictures: Accurate. First picture most accurate.

Grade: 2/5

Pink is not really my color, hence the low grade ;) However, I'm sure a pink polish lover would appreciate it much more! I will use this for nail art and I already have in my Ice Cream Nails :) The glass flecks give it a nice pearly dimension though.
Nordic Cap is a Swedish brand.

How do you like NP14?
Are you into pink polishes?

  2. The flecks lift the whole polish to a higher level! And you are right! It is sort of nudey! :D

  3. Åh, nordic caps är ju bra härliga. Tycker som du att denna inte var den mest fantastiska någonsin men väl värd 10 kr och helt perfekt till nail art. Extra kul att det bara var 2 lager. :)

  7. "Every polish has its right to 15 minutes of fame" :-) I think I would definitely give 15 minutes of fame to this nail polish... and another 15 minutes of fame... again and again! And I would surely use it a lot for my nail art creations! :-)
