If there’s one thing a lady needs to cheer her up after 3 weeks of nearly daily migraines it’s a gorgeous Tiffany Blue-esque nail polish. So when I spotted this BYS colour “Kung Fu Blue” I was both excited and a bit bummed.
At $5-$6 BYS polishes are probably one of the cheapest we have available in New Zealand. Unfortunately that cheapness shows in their formula. I’ve bought two BYS polishes in the past and ended up binning them both. They’re runny and watery and streaky and frustrating.
But such a pretty pretty colour. The kind of colour to suck someone in and convince them that maybe third time would be the charm. So I bought it and it to my complete astonishment it was runny and watery and streaky. After patiently applying two thin neat coats I realised I would still be there in October trying to attain opaqueness and ended up glooping on a couple of thickish coats and calling it done.
It was still denting 6 hours later. Putting on a top coat rescued it slightly, but this one’s been relegated to the to-be-admired-in-the-bottle section of my nail polish collection.
