If you’re like me, you are constantly looking for new nail colors to add to your collection. Ice cream, glitzy and bold shades — I’m always constantly adding something new to my collection. Despite having polishes stocked in my house ready for the apocalypse (you never know), I don’t necessarily commit to a certain brand of nail polish. At least, I didn’t until a couple of weeks ago. As a gift, I was given a few Wet n Wild Megalast nail polishes to try out. I have bought Wet n Wild nail polish in the past but the packaging was so different from the one I was given recently. I loved the Wet n Wild Megalast brand so much, that I decided I would take a stab at reviewing the product. So here it is!
Packaging:
I loved the upgrade Wet n Wild gave the nail polish bottles. It was actually pretty cute and each bottle had a unique name that went with the color of the nail polish. Cute names like “I Need a Refresh-Mint” and “Break the Ice”. Totally in love with them all!
Brush:
As for the brushes, they were pretty cool. They kind of remind me of a more expensive brand of nail polish that I’ve seen before. The brush makes sure you don’t miss a single spot on your nail — all it took was one coat to cover the entire nail. I loved this because most other nail brushes have required me to fill in small spaces that were missed by the brush.
Color:
The ones that I was able to try out were “Disturbia/Audace,” “Candy-Licious/Rose Bonbon” and “I Red a Good Book/Balloon Rouge.” The “Disturbia” color was my all-time favorite. It went on easy and I really didn’t need much of a second coat because the color showed up the way it was supposed to without any additional layers. The “Candy-Licious” color was also just as impressive. It showed up as a cute, fun pink and didn’t require more than two layers for it to pop on my nails. As for the “I Red a Good Book color,” I was in love with it. It wasn’t too dark or too bright—it was just right.
Lasting Power:
After painting my nails, it took a good week for it to start chipping.That wasn’t so bad since I used my hands a lot during that week — washing dishes and some yard work. So, I assume if you aren’t constantly out working with your hands, the polish would last longer.
Overall:
I think many will agree that this is a great product and despite being only $1.99, it really does deliver like most high priced nail polishes. For only $1.99 you definitely can’t go wrong. The only downside I would say is it delivers some shine, but not as much as I wanted. So, I would recommend adding a coat of a clear shine topcoat, if that’s what you’re looking for. I give this product an A-.
