Born Pretty Store Mirror Nail Polish Review & Swatches

Aren't they looking damn gorgeous?
I always get mesmerized by the metallic silver nails that I see in magazines and Pinterest. I had always wanted metallic silver nail polish but could not find one. Born Pretty Store knows me so well and introduced the gorgeous set of mirror nail polish. Born Pretty Store Mirror Nail Polish reminds me of Born Pretty Store Leopard Print Nail Foil but with leopard prints over it! 

The mirror nail polish is priced at $14.90 and you can BUY ONLINE HERE. Use the coupon code MEGW10 to get 10% off on your order!

Base coat is mislabelled as top coat!

I know I spoiled the pinky one!
Born Pretty Store Mirror Nail Polish* comes in a set of 2 consisting of mirror nail polish and a base coat. Though it is written top coat over the nail polish but it is actually a base coat! Before applying any nail polish, make sure your nails are clean and oil free. The first step is to apply the base coat. It takes a while to dry completely and I being an impatient girl did not wait for it to dry and applied mirror nail polish on the pinky finger. The result---> you can see in the pictures. So always make sure the base coat dries completely! The next step is to apply the mirror nail polish. I was instantly impressed by the finish the single coat gives to my nails! It looks exactly what I was looking for. The perfect "metallic silver nails"! It dries instantly and gives the most gorgeous finish I have ever seen! So I thought of applying top coat over it but to my surprise it turned into a chrome finish. I tried other top coats but it totally changed the finish of the nail polish. Top coats do not work on this nail polish and you have to leave it after applying mirror nail polish. 

The staying power is pretty poor! Yes you read it right! It wears off within few hours of application and starts peeling. I use it only when I need to attend a party or in other words do not do any household chores *laughs*.

PROS:
- Gorgeous, shiny bottles. They definitely stand out in my nail polish collection!
- Bristles are soft and easy to use.
- No streaky application.
- Mirror nail polish dries quickly. 
- High gloss and shine. It has a perfect "mirror finish".
- Inexpensive! You get 2 polishes!

CONS:
- Poor staying power!
- Base coat takes a bit time to dry!

Overall Thoughts:
Born Pretty Store Mirror Nail Polish is the most gorgeous nail polish I own. Though it has poor staying power but I love applying it when I had to go to a party. It looks elegant and is defnitiely a HEAD TURNER! I wish it does not change its finish when a top coat is applied. I would defintiely recommend it to all nail polish lovers!

Rating: 4/5

My Tips:
- Store in a cool, dry place.
- Roll your polishes in between your palms! Never shake them!
- Apply e coat to protect your nails. 
- Let the base coat dry completely before applying base polish!

Do you like the concept of mirror nail polish?

Stay Pretty!
