Guess who’s back, back again… Manicure Mondays are back! For good this time. Have I said that before? As you can see, I haven’t been blogging as much as I probably should be. I’ve had a lot going on, we’ve completely renovated a house, and moved into it over the last few months, so blogging has taken a back seat. But this little lull has given me a chance to reflect on my blog. And where I want to take it over the next few months, or should I say, years. One thing I have really missed writing are my Manicure Mondays, so I’m bringing them back – starting with the gorgeous Collection Boo Blue.
I’m going to hold my hands up and admit that I haven’t tried any Collection Nail Polishes before. But my oh my have I been missing out. Collection Boo Blue is from the 7 Day Wear Collection and these little beauties are only £1.99. Yep, less than two pounds. I wasn’t sure what to expect from a £1.99 polish, but this exceeded any expectations I may have had. I find many brushes on the cheaper nail polishes are quite chunky but the brushes on these polishes are perfect for my little nails. The polish seems to glide onto the nail too.
The colour payoff isn’t great after one coat, I was slightly disappointed at first. But the second coat totally transforms the colour, and gave this absolutely gorgeous result. Collection Boo Blue is perfect for the summer months/festival season and it’s one of those ‘goes with anything colours’. I can imagine I’ll be reaching for this colour quite often.
I can’t wait to try some of the other colours from the Collection 7 Day Wear range now. Especially True Coral, Lemon Meringue and Ice – I think all of these would be perfect summer colours. You can shop the range online here or at most Boots, Superdrug and larger Tesco stores.
What do you think of Collection Boo Blue? Are you pleased to see my Manicure Mondays back? I’d love to hear from you if you have any particular colours/ranges you’d like me to feature.
Until next time,

I have used this brand before and I think as long as you have time to do 2 coats and a top coat they are really good. Love this blue
Ami says
Yep I always make time to do two coats, even if it covers really well with one. I think it helps it last much longer.

This looks like a very nice blue polish, I really need to check this brand out
Ami says
It’s sold in Tesco, Superdrug and Boots and probably lots of others. I’ve already picked up two new colours after trying this one.

You have such a nice shape nail – I know that sounds weird, but seriously, compared to my little chubby digits, you hands look lovely! And I do like that shade 🙂 x
Ami says
Hehe thank you. Strangely I’ve been complimented on my nail shape before. I don’t mind the shape of them but they are SO tiny so they’re tricky to paint sometimes.

I love that colour, it really makes me think of a sunny summer’s day.
Ami says
Thank you! It’s such a versatile colour as I feel it would work perfectly in the winter too.

That is a really pretty blue. I am more of a berry girl when it comes to polish, though I am currently wearing rose gold by Barry M x
Ami says
I wear pretty much anything. I have a Vivid Purple on at the moment. Ooh is that from the Molten Metals Collection? I love those ones.

I haven’t tried this brand out before. I will give it a go for only £1.99. Most nail polishes tend to come off my nails really quickly. So hopefully this one should stay on for a little longer
Ami says
I was so impressed with how long this one stayed, especially with the £1.99 price tag. I have an even cheaper brand featured next week though and this stayed even longer!
