Sweet Shop Reviews

When I heard about Models Own new scented Sweet Shop collection I was so excited and simply couldn't wait to get my hands on them! Finally, two days ago they arrived! I only ordered four of them as the smell of Liquorice makes me feel very ill, so I didn't really want that on my nails! 



 First up is Fizzy Cola. This is a gorgeous brown, shimmer colour with a really good consistency. Unlike most Models Own polishes it wasn't too thick which made it easy to manage.
I noticed they had to be completely dry before you could really smell the cola bottles, but once they were it was a very strong smell.
This is three thin coats with no top coat.












Next up is Gumballs. This is a bright, thick pink creme polish. It is the thickest and the most like Models Own's usual polishes in my opinion.
This polish, although it was the hardest to manage, it had the strongest and most recognisable scent. Even while the polish was wet the smell was very strong. I loved the scent and the colour of this one.
This is three thin coats with no top coat.
Next up is Pear Drops. This is a beautiful coral shimmer polish with a really easy consistency. It went on like a dream and the tiny glitter pieces meant that you could get away without a top coat.
The smell wasn't as strong with this one which I was disappointed by as I've always loved pear drops!
This is two thick coats with no top coat.

And last but not least is Rhubarb and Custard. This is a gorgeous, dark pink colour with bigger bits of glitter than the other two shimmer polishes. It went on really easily again and had a strong scent. Personally, I didn't like the smell of this one as much as the others, but for fans of these nostalgic sweets, this is the perfect polish.
This is three medium coats with no top coat.













Altogether I really love this collection. I like it better than some of Models Own's recent collections such as Polish For Tans.
I think Sweet Shop has been well thought out and really hits a spot that Models Own haven't hit before.

Until next time,

- Esther :)
