Nails Inc | Fiji

Hey guys, so as some of you are aware I recently turned 21, and as part as part of my birthday celebrations my closest friends decided to take me to Bournemouth. I havent actually been on holiday this year, so I was using this weekend as my holiday break. Although most of the weekend was spent enjoying the nightlife we did manage to fit in some shopping. My friends are also quite into make up and beauty products like myself so the first shop on our list was of course Boots! The Boots where I live is tiny, I live in a small town in wiltshire and all of our shops are fairly small, so I decided to take advantage of the massive Boots we found in Bournemouth, I will admit I may have slightly overspent and bought a few items that I didnt need, and probably wont use, they were just easy on the eye. I will do a separate blog post on all the other bits and bobs I bought, but onto my favourite purchase...

Fiji by Essie nail polish, I was recently catching up on a few of Tanya Burrs YouTube videos, and she often wears this gorgeous pale pink almost white nail polish, which is fiji by Essie. The boots in my town doesnt actually have Essie stand which is rather annoying considering its my go to brand for nail polish, but everytime I have had a day out shopping I have kept my eyes open for it, but its always out of stock, obviously everyone else must agree that the colour is too die for. Anyway whilst I was in Boots in Bournemouth I managed to find my self one, the last one on the shelf, it was like it knew I was  coming! 
I painted my nails as soon as I got back to the hotel room ready for the night ahead. I was a little worried that because my skin is quite pale, as so is the nail varnish that would be pretty much the same colour as my skin and it would all blend into one, but thankfully it was okay and actually made me look more tanned. 
I did find with this nail polish that two coats was definitely needed, unlike some of Essie polishes, but I guess this was expected with a light shade. I also love the shape of the brush with Essie polish, it fits perfectly onto my nails. I painted my nails 3 days ago and I still dont have any chips, and it still looks nice and bright. 
I think although this is a light shade I would probably still wear this through the winter its such a pretty shade and goes with almost everything. You do pay a little bit extra for Essie nail polish but it is definitely worth the extra couple of pound.


Thanks for reading I hope this review helped!
