Nails Inc Sugar House Lane - swatches and review

Today I want to show you a gem in my collection! A milky nude glitter polish from Nails Inc called Sugar House Lane. It's part of the Nails Inc's Special Effects collection. They call this range "Sprinkles".
Inspired by Gelic' and many others too, I have developed a grave addiction to milky glitter polishes ;) I just love them! :D
This one is hand delivered directly from London when my boyfriend was there last Autumn.

Nails Inc name their polishes after places in London and this one is no exception. Sugar House Lane is a street in London named after a building called Sugar House which is situated in this street. Sugar House is a Victorian building once used to store and pack sugar hence the name :)
Enough rambling, let's look at this great polish! :)


GOOD TO KNOW:

Type of polish: Milky glitter.

Colour: A dark nude base packed with small round black and silver glitters.

Opacity: Very good! This is two coats, but if you do one thick coat you can get away with it :D

Drying time: Normal.

Formula: Very good! Perfect texture and so easy to apply! Stays where you want it to.

Brush: Very good! Thick, firm and very easy to apply with! :D

Shine: Very shiny on its own, but I have one coat of Seche Vite in these pictures. It leaves your nails with a bit of a rough surface due to all glitters, so if you want smooth nails I recommend at least two coats of a top coat. Sminkan would have taken three or four coats ;)

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Accurate. What you see is what you get ;) Well, it's more glittery IRL actually :) The silver glitter shows off more. When the silver glitters have a bit of nude polish on them they look white, but when they are at the top layer they are silvery and glittery :)

Grade: 5/5 :D

I like this polish! It's a fun combo of nude, black, white and silver! And the formula is great too!! The opacity is amazing considering it's a milky glitter polish!!
Maybe it's not the perfect match for my skintone :/ but the polish itself is gorgeous! I like that it almost looks as marble or a birds egg at a distance :D

How do you like this polish?
Do you have any of the Nails Inc Special Effects polishes?

  1. I love this one too, I wasn't sure I was going to like the sprinkles (not a big fan of the crackle craze) but they really impressed me, definitely unusual and fun!

    1. I HATE crackle polishes, but this type of milky glitters have stolen my heart! ;)
      I'm not to pleased that they call it sprinkles though... To me that sounds sheer - and it's not sheer at all!!

  2. Hahaha, japp, minst tre men mer sannolikt fyra lager överlack. :D
    Färgen var inte min kopp te här måste jag säga, men jag är ju inte heller helt inne i mjölkigaglitter-trenden. Har bara ett själv och det ska jag i och för sig ge en chans till men det var inte passionerad kärlek direkt när jag provade.

  5. Åååååååh, jag älskar det och är så avundsjuk! :D Men det visste du ju redan! ;) Det var faktiskt denna jag såg swatcher på som gjorde mig förälskad i de mjölkiga glitterlacken och som till slut ledde mig fram till w7 - salt n pepper. Var en del jämförelser mellan detta och w7. Måste ta mig i kragen och på nått sätt skaffa mig denna kollektion :D Och tack för länk! ;)
