Sugar Coat Nail Polish

I tried two of Sally Hansen’s textured nail polishes this summer. One of my favorites is Sugar Coat in Bubble Plum. I was not sure if I could get into the texture but I found I liked this matte bumpy effect much better than just matte and definitely much better than their Fuzzy polish. The color is beautiful and the texture is subtle but interesting.

With the first coat you can notice the bumps but you really need two thin coats to get the full sugar coated effect and to get an opaque looking color. It feels rough and if you are hesitant before buying just feel the label on the front of the bottle — it feels pretty much the same.

A few days after these photos were taken I trimmed my nails as they were becoming to un-functionally long for me (in other words I kept hurting myself). After trimming I filed with a course and a fine file with no ill effects. I will definitely be wearing this one again — I want to try doing some coloring blocking with this one and a shiny black.

Have you tried Sugar Coat — or other textured polishes?
