Paint the Town - Nail Polish Review

For years now, my New Year's resolution has always included a side note to "stop biting my nails." (It's never quite worked out so perfectly though...)

But, alas, these past few months I've become nail polish OBSESSED and it's really given me the drive to stop biting.

I'm almost at the point where I don't nibble at all, but I have the nasty habit of picking the skin around the nail bed - naughty naughty I know! 

It takes a really good nail polish to grab my attention and make me want to re-apply the colour once it's chipped or, dare I say, bitten off! This Maybelline New York Colour Show nail polish, however, is just the ticket, especially for this festive time of year.

A beautiful red, the colour of this nail varnish is Paint the Town (number 260) has hints of mulberry deep reds but is bright enough for a younger spark like myself to wear easily without looking too mature - I prefer the jolly fun version of Christmas!

What really grabbed me about this product, however, is the fact that the application is remarkably smooth and easy, and leaves no streaks. I applied the varnish for two coats, and had even toyed with the idea of a single coat because it's so lovely and luscious it almost doesn't need a second! That's a win-win in my books!
