As you know I love doing my nails and other peoples and have recently got into doing gel nails. If you have never done gel nails before and want to give it a go then check out my video showing simple DIY Gel Nails at home. It is fairly simple to do and once you have the equipment you can save a lot of money over going to the salon.
Madam Glam recently contacted me and sent me their gel polishes to try, one base coat, a colour polish and a top coat. I chose the shade baby blue from the Madam Glam website, although from the colour icons they use to show different shades make it fairly difficult to see what each colour is like on.
As it was Christmas my Mum wanted me to give her some gel nails so I tried out the Madam Glam polishes on her. To apply them was no different or more difficult than other gel polishes that I use. My mum has really nice long finger nails compared to me, her only other gel nails have been in shade Bikini Bottoms using the Pro Gel Super Nails. I asked her for some of her opinions on this gel polish compared with the last manicure I gave her.
These nails were done on the 29th of December and the colour is still there and looking pretty neat, although there is more peeling on the areas near the cuticles than the Pro Gel Super Nails manicure. My Mum wasn’t as keen on the colour, the shade isn’t as pastel as I had thought so it does look more ‘plasticy’ and would look better either a little lighter or darker. My Mum was impressed with the Madam Glam polishes though. She chipped a nail slightly and cut the end of her nail to remove it. The polish still stayed neat and looked good even after cutting it.
Looks amazing !

I have never heard of these before but they seem pretty great, a lot better than a normal nail polish anyway. Love the colour too!

I like the colour – it’s nice for a summer time and I have similar colour but different brand. I actually never tried gel nail polish so it was interesting to read this review. I agree – it is pricey for £10, but I might get it if it’s on sale or on offer :)

I think thats a reasonable price bearuing in mind you’re looking at £20+ for brands like Gelish!
Pretty colour!
