Hi lovelies,
I hope you had a lovely weekend and that you’re ready for a new week and a new month. I had a lovely weekend, even though the heat and humidity is back in full force. At least I know it is bound to gradually get cooler.
I’ve seen the Rimmel space dust polishes on a few other international blogs and was quite surprised when I walked into Dischem the other day and noticed a few there as well. I have given the few Rimmel polishes I had away so this is my first real use of the brand. These are textured polishes. I decided to pick up the silver one but I wish I had picked up a few more. Let me tell you about the colours I didn’t pick up first.
- Luna Love – Hot pink / magenta with pink and blue glitter
- Aurora – soft pink almost rose goldy colour
- Total Eclipse – Black / charcoal polish with green glitter
- Moon walking – Lilac polish with silver glitter
The one I did pick up was Shooting Star, which is a silver polish with silver glitter.
This is 3 coats but 2 coats would’ve been perfect. No topcoat. It is super blingy and sparkles like crazy. I actually really really like it and I will more than likely go to pick up a few more of these. Really good application too. The first coat was a little sheer and I wasn’t sure how it would go. It was why I added the third coat but it definitely wasn’t necessary.
Textured polishes are popping up everywhere and most brands have a textured polished now. I don’t know how much longer this trend will be popular for but I still really like it. The good thing with these are that even if the trend blows over you can still topcoat it and have a great polish. It’s still very usable even when the trend dies down. So if you like texture too, run out and grab some of these. I really like this one.
What do you think? Which one would you have grabbed? Do you like textured polishes?
Thanks for reading,

This is my personal favorite from the collection and my personal favorite textured silver nail polish. I absolutely love it! I wear two coats because I find it very difficult to remove.

This was definitely the one that stood out for me the most and I am so glad I got it. Also my only silver texture so I am very happy.

Love it! I tried them out at dischem, but didnt get any.
Any idea on why my stamping smudged when I applied my top coat? I used the konad polish? And it was completely dry.

Thanks 🙂
What topcoat do you use? Some topcoats are just very inclined to drag no matter what. Another option is to make sure when you topcoat to have a bead of topcoat on the end of the brush and glide it on so that the brush doesn’t actually touch the polish. It is usually the brush touching it that causes it to drag even more.

The first three you listed sound interesting! 🙂
I think I like textures, but pretty much only if they have glitter in them, like this one. They have to be pretty blingy or else I don’t really like them.

I think I might have to get them all :/ The more I see them the more I want them. I love texture in general so I am have a few more options. These Rimmel ones are nice and blingy for sure!
