E.L.F Mod Mauve Nail Polish

I won't lie, I didn't have high hopes for E.L.F's nail polish. Perhaps I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to things like this but I assume something that costs £1.50 isn't going to be that great. I love that I've been proved wrong.

Mod Mauve is absolutely gorgeous. Granted it's not a colour I would automatically be drawn to had I seen it on the shelf in Boots but it really works. It's also a lot more sophisticated than most colours I'd splash on my nails but I quite like it for this reason alone. It's definitely met with more approval at work.
Mod Mauve is a dark redy pink shade. It goes on really well and after two coats completely covers the nail, you can get a much lighter shade with one coat but I really wanted to build it up. What I will say is that you really need to give this varnish a chance to dry, I indented my second finger because I made the mistake of thinking all was ok and running round like a headless chicken, as a result I bashed my nails and dented the polish. On another side note I also find these varnish's chip less without a top coat too, it lasted around 5 days before I needed to take it off (a lot better than it's more expensive cousins in my collection).

I am continuously amazed and impressed with E.L.F Cosmetics. I've got another post coming up with some other bits and bobs I bought when it was 50% off, I really can't wait to share as there are some other gems!

You can buy Mod Mauve polish from E.L.F's website here for £1.50!
