Hello lovelies,

For a while, I've been testing Eye Candy London Gel Wrap System. This product promises gel-like glossy finish and long-lasting formula without UV lamp. That really interested me because I don't own an UV lamp but I would still like to get gel-like results from time to time.

Both polishes (base coat & top coat) come in hard paper box with instructions as to how to use the Gel Wrap System.

I have applied the Gel Wrap System and two coats of nail polish and worn it for five days. Both applied very easily, base coat has quite thick formula which is good if you have ridges in nails. Topcoat dries very fast but can drag nail polish/nail art. The following pictures are after whole five days and as you can see, no chipping!

Looks like the product really delivers good results. I didn't get a chance to try it for more than five days but I could certainly do day six without problems if I was to leave it on. I will be taking this duo with me on holiday because I will need this long-lasting effect....painting nails on holiday?

Eye Candy Gel Wrap System is available at Sainsbury's or Tesco for £10.99 I believe. Or separately for £6 at Oh Beauty.

One more thing....I am giving away one Eye Candy Gel Wrap System, courtesy of Eye Candy! Just fill out the Rafflecopter but only UK residents please. I am not able to ship outside UK due to new regulations.

Hello lovelies,

Today I'm going to look at Eye Candy London polish in Juicylicious. Eye Candy London is a sister brand to Invogue, currently very trendy UK brand selling feather, matte, concrete and other finishes.

Each polish comes in sealed packaging so you might be sure nobody has tested the polish before.

Juicylicious - bright neon orange creme with strong yellow undertones.This orange shade might not be suitable for all skin tones but it is a nice bright colour. I have applied two thick coats hoping they would be opaque enough but my nail line was still a bit visible. This polish would be best applied over white nail polish. The colour would be brighter and perfectly opaque.

The formula of the polish was good as it applied easy. The drying time was rather average which was probably due to the thick coats I've used. it also dries satin.

Satin finish without topcoat:

Comparison of neon orange polishes, 2 coats each.

I've never tried Eye Candy London polishes before so I didn't know what exactly to expect. The formula was good but a little more pigmentation would be better.

If you'd like to purchase Eye Candy nail polishes, they are currently available at Sainsbury's and Tesco and online at Amazon.
