NOTD: Golden Treasure


While shopping I stumbled across this baby. It was on sale and it looked a bit like my all time favourite In The Bronx of Catrice. Being the curious beauty lover I am, I took it with me and here's a little review!



Don't mind the wrinkly, dwarf hands. I cut my nails and my hands are just granny like. Anywhooooo,  the nail polish is from H&M. It's a yellow-gold. Okay, I have nothing good to say about this nail polish, so I'm not going to pretend. I've bought H&M nail polishes in the past and I wasn't very satisfied of those either, but I was willing to give it a second chance. Wrong. So wrong of me to think that.  

Sorry to be so negative, but I'm just giving my honest opinion. Using this was horrible. It has the smallest brush, which made it really hard to apply. But that's not the worst part. The worst is the smell!! My god, this nail polish smells so bad! After applying it, I immediately got a head ache. That's also why I didn't attach a picture of the brush; I couldn't handle the smell!!
But that's not all..




(Again, don't mind the granny dwarf hands.)

Look how the nail polish looks after one day!! And I'm talking about less than 24 hours. This is terrible. I bought it on sale for €2, but in my opinion that's way too much money for this rubbish nail polish. I liked the colour, and maybe I'll use it in nail art, but I won't buy any of these anymore. Ever. 
I think I made my point clear.  

A little comparison with my all time favourite (In The Bronx). 

As you can see the H&M nail polish is a lot lighter and more yellow. My cousin told me to add some black to it, which is a good idea. But that smell!!! I know nail polish doesn't smell nice like roses, but this is really terrible. I could feel the pain in my brain cells. 




Have you ever had a nail polish that's so smelly that you just want to burn it, till there's nothing left of it?
What are your experiences with H&M nail polishes?



Sorry about the pictures not being sharp as always btw. 
My camera just didn't want to focus the way I wanted to!!

    1. Haha thank you, I guess? Not sure how to react on that, being the awkward midget I am. I was being serious, though! I've tried them before too, but none of them smelled as bad as this one. They do chip real fast! Xxxx

  2. Oh boo, I haven't tried any H&M polishes but I can't stand polish which chips quickly. Such a disappointment x

    1. I recommend you try another brand, because all H&M nail polishes I own chip fast. Normally nail polishes last for days with me! X

  3. Oh, that sucks that it chipped so quickly! I'm with you on the smell. I bought a vanilla scented polish, and I can't stand to use it. Ugh!!

    1. True! Such a shame. H&M should focus on fashion, not on nail polishes. X

  15. Great nailpolish!! And yes I'm pretty obsessed with food haha. Food is amazing I don't know how anyone can not be obsessed with food!!

  16. Thank you for the honest opinion, always appreciate that :)
    I have 2 H&m polishes, but I didn't mind the smell. BYS polishes smell so much worse. I can't stand those. Even when it dries and you apply top coat. EW!
    Anyways, H&M polishes chip fast, but I thought that was just me, because every polish chips very fast on my nails (because they brake all the time, and take away some polish also.lol)

    1. You're welcome! If I love a product, you'll know. If I hate it, you'll know too! I have 2 too, they don't as bad as this one. This is just horrible. I don't know that brand! But I think that's for the best haha. How many coats do you apply? Maybe you can apply one more or use a good top coat! Nail polish don't chip that easily on my nails, so I skip the top coat :) Thanks for your lovely comment, lovely Deja! X

  17. That sucks! Especially that the color looks really nice, I never tried H&M nailpolishes & after reading this I won't anyway, over here they are over-priced, they sell one for around 8 dollars & I know they sell them much less everywhere else so I refuse to buy them, I hope you find a dupe for in the bronx soon love :(

    1. H&M has really nice colours, no doubt about that. However the quality is not that good at allll. Keep the 8 dollar in your pocket and buy yourself something nice that's actually worth your money! Ah thank you! I'm still searching and won't quit until I find it! Thank you for your comment, dear!! :D Xxxxx
