Nails Inc Beaded Polish

I'd obviously missed any threads about the Barry M sequin nails and treated myself to one of those last week. I bought the white one (name escapes me after I flung it to the back of my Helmer!) thinking it was like the CG It's a Trape-eze. I was appalled when I put it on. I managed one nail and it came off again!

Why not contact them and tell them?

You never knoW what will happen x

Oh man, just read the rest of the replies to this topic, they are disgusting!

If I had money to burn I would buy the white one just so I could blog how foul it is haha.

Ugh, seriously. What's with these brands bringing out 'textures'? No one wants textured nails, they feel and look terrible. The only benefit of textured polish would be so blind people can tell you're wearing it.

I like textures. This surprised me, but the Kiko's and Zoya ones are done well and are lovely. But I guess like all nail polish brands, no two are the same. Just some brands seem to be taking the textures too far.

i agree with ninjajane, i've tried kiko's and opi's and those are really good

Yikes, those look gruesome! I won't be buying, lol!

I'm wearing bright green lumpy Kiko at the moment and I love it! 
Hideaous tipwear I have to be honest, but on the very very good side it totally hides the teabag and superglue repair!  OH couldn't pick which finger it was  at all!

Lol at least it's good for something HanSpan

Surely Nails Inc saw the reaction to Barry M sequin effects (even from diehard Barry supporters)... you'd think they'd reconsider releasing them, even if somehow they themselves thought the polishes were beautiful...?

I wont buy nails inc at full price either. When I was in NYC last year I was appalled to see that a uk brand was cheaper in the states than it was in the uk and it wasn't on sale, standard price was just cheaper, if I remember correctly $10 which equates to around £7.50 which when it costs £11 here is a bit rich!

OMG- i know exactly what you mean XD I acutally posted this on their facebook and I got loads of angry replies from their UK fans saying how dare I accuse them of not treating us properly (?!).

I have a few nails inc polishes- they're good quality, have lovely colors and they follow tends pretty sharpish. But I can honestly say (hand on heart) that I'd take a three pound Barry M any day.

seriously? that sucks.

I hate the fact that at £11 a pop for a nails inc, the cheap silver tops do look cheap and tarnished after a while. Hardly high end.

Butter London are just the same too- way cheaper in the US and have loads of US exclusive shades *shakes fist* What a point of selling a polish called 'scouse' in the US?! No-one will have any idea what it means!!

I also posted on their facebook page - no reply from anyone. Im not shy to spend on polishes, not at all I could have bought a house with the cash ive spent on opi lol but don't like to be taken for a mug!

you just want to know your £11 is going to be worth it - I mean OPI at the same full RRP (I know no one pays full OPI prices much) just look like a much better quality polish than Nails inc and i am being shallow and going on the bottle here - and you can get all the OPI's in the states as you can over here generally.

I don't like those stories that the QVC collections of Nails Inc are lesser quality than the full shop bought ones.

Totally agree with what everyone is saying here - Nails Inc are a great fashion forward brand, but aren't worth the £11 price tag in my opinion. I have a few, but don't think I've ever paid full price - have bought most in sales, such as asos and even the sale page on the Nails Inc website. Also magazine freebies are a good way of acquiring the brand. Their cremes are nice, but I feel they have been jumping on trends such as the texture fashion, and in their haste they Have rushed and got formulations wrong. Sorry if I'm not making sense or my spelling is terrible - so hard typing this from my mobile ! I don't have a computer indoors !

I love nails inc - possibly my favourite brand, but I wont pay full price for them. I wait for sales on their website or QVC. However I dont think I'd want the beaded polish, no matter how good the sale :p Seems like they bought out too much, too quickly, and we ended up with that...

I hate how we get so utterly ripped off compared to the yanks, even iTunes, a song for us is 99p, 99 cents for them which is 67p.

I agree Nails inc are very overpriced. Especially when you see how many are sold on blog sales, etc. The Nail Sale page on Facebook is full of NI polishes compared to everything else.

Nail sale page ? Facespace you say ?? Oooh ! As usual I'm completely oblivious to interesting things like this ! Going to have a nosey when I finally have access to a computer and not just my mobile !

The swatches are in.... dear god

Hope the link works! Its a closed group but they approved me really quickly x

That is a truly hideous polish lol.

Thanks Martinsgirl !

These are horrible!! I'll be shocked if people buy them.

I only have 2 nails inc polishes, and they came free with diet coke/a magazine. I do really like some of their stuff but £11 just seems way too high a price. People pay it though, so good for them. It's just not the kind of money I'm willing to spend, a nail polish has to be really special for me to spend £11 on it.
