Nail Junkie | Wet n Wild MegaLast Nail Polish | Review + Swatches


I'm really starting to fall in love all over again with Wet n Wild beauty products. Mainly because they've really started to improve on the overall quality of their products. WnW used to be such a hit or miss with me but lately they've been producing nothing but hits! Which brings me to their new MegaLast Nail Polish collection. The collection has an all new formula and brush design and is formulated to get longer overall wear. I was at my local Walgreens a few weeks ago and picked up a couple colors from the MegaLast collection.

Wet n Wild MegaLast Nail Polish
Swatches


I Need A Refresh Mint
A minty green


Undercover
A deep mauve 


Glow: I'm in LOVE with the thick brush! It's makes painting your nails such a breeze! I've noticed that a lot of brands are now trying to incorporate larger brushes on nail lacquers which makes me a very happy woman :-D It makes it easier to apply and get an even coverage within the first 1-2 coats!

Glare: The bristles on the brush are a little rigged so you may want to cut the strays away. Also the thickness of the stem of the brush was a little awkward, a lot of polish clings on to the stem which makes it necessary to make sure you wipe it off to avoid a drippy mess! While I love the actual size of the brush I think they could've constructed the stem part a little better, maybe thinner? Oh and one more thing, apparently China Glaze has a minty green polish with a very similar name that's caused a bit of an e-controversy...hmmm...I mean in retrospect there are a LOT of brands out there with a LOT of different names, so maybe it's just a pesky coincidence? ;o)

Would I Recommend It? YES! I'm really happy to see Wet n Wild stepping their  nail polish game up. I can't really give my insight on how long they actually "last" just yet because I haven't had the chance to wear it long enough (as I'm always repainting my nails) but I do plant to try a couple more colors and will update you in a later review.

Where To Buy: WnW is sold at various retailers, I purchased these from my local Walgreens for about $3 each. I'm sure prices and colors vary per store so you can check out their website http://wnwbeauty.com/ for more info.

Product(s) in this post were purchase by me.

  1. You know, I saw some of those at my Walgreens...they were so tempting to buy, but I was like nah, they're Wet n Wild and I probably won't like the formula. You've convinced me to try again! I like both of the colors you chose - Undercover is pretty. The brush does look easy to use - it looks like the Sally Hansen Complete Manicure brushes.

    1. You should definitely try it! I used to be skeptical about a lot of their stuff too (still am sometimes lol) but the formula has gotten a hell of a lot better.

  6. About how many days can it last before the nail polish starts to chip?
